Spot intelligence.

Cathedral Point is the exposed, higher-consequence side of Imsouane. Northwest swell arrives more directly than at The Bay; the point is steepest and most powerful toward low tide, while higher water can shift attention to the beach peaks.

Character

01

Imsouane Cathedral Point is defined by powerful right point + high-tide beach peaks over sand point with beach peaks. The shape can change with swell angle, period and the active section, so the live score should always be paired with a visual check from shore.

Best setup

02

NW swell, e–se offshore and low to mid tide form the profile baseline. SWELLRADAR treats 1.0–3.1 m as a working range, not a guarantee of breaking-wave size.

Lineup read

03

This is an advanced profile: positioning, entry and exit should be assessed before committing. Pay particular attention to powerful exposed sets, headland currents, critical low-tide sections. Local signs and advice always take priority.
