Our location just on top of a hill allows us to have a look at the different surf’s spots from our terrace, one of these is Banana Point.
Located a few steps away from our house, Banana Point is a “Point break” surf spot, which means that a rocky point will make the wave break and wrap around in a bay. Banana Point delivers waves for surfers from intermediate to advance level and works best from October to April thanks to winter swells. It is a long and easy wave up to 2 meters and is perfect to progress in your surfing: the take-off is quite easy and is longboard-friendly.
Banana Point offers unforgettable sessions for advanced surfers looking for a less crowded and less competitive alternative to Anchor Point. The atmosphere in the line-up is always quite laid-back, especially if you avoid “peak hours”. Banana is mainly a low-tide surf spot, just like all the other point breaks of the area.
When the swell is too strong, those who won’t dare paddling out can just leave their surfboard at the surf house and climb the Banana rock to watch the mesmerising surfers’ “ballet” from the cliff that overlooks the surf spot. And for the hungry one the spot offers a multitude of different restaurants and bars owned by locals where you can enjoy a glass (or multiple ones) of hot Maroccan tea with mint and some local tasty dishes!
