Killer Point is a right-handed point break on the coast of Taghazout, Morocco. On the right day, the ideal swell window runs from WNW–NNW (290–330°); groundswell with periods around 11–18s gives it the most shape; the wave is comfortably workable up to roughly 12 ft on the face. Best winds are E or SE, with SE, ESE, SSW, or S still rideable. Tide influences the wave moderately, so timing the swing helps line up the better sets. The sweet spot in our data sits between roughly 0.5 m and 1.8 m of tide height. Consistency is moderate - good days come in pulses tied to incoming swells. Expect mild water that may call for a spring suit. Expect a busy lineup, particularly during the prime season. Logistically, it is about 55 minutes from AGA airport. It is best suited to surfers with a few seasons of overhead experience who can pick their lines under pressure. Board-wise, locals lean on point board / shortboard.
The best window is typically Oct–Mar, when swells from WNW–NNW (290–330°) are most consistent.
In our data the spot is workable up to roughly 12 ft on the face on the right swell and wind, beyond which it usually becomes unmanageable or closes out.
It can be friendly on small days, but the lineup is usually competitive and not the best fit for first-timers.
