Named after the rusted boiler of a wrecked ship still sitting on the rocks, Boilers is hollower and more critical than Anchor Point.
The wave
A classic Moroccan right-hander with steep, heavy sections over rocky reef. It has a more critical take-off than Anchor and rewards anyone who gets deep enough into the pocket with a proper barrel as the wave throws over.
It also picks up more swell than Anchor, so it stays consistent on days when the more sheltered points are quiet.
The keyhole
There is a keyhole entry that, timed correctly, sweeps you out to the lineup. Misjudge it and you get swept onto the ship's boiler that gives the spot its name. This is exactly the sort of detail that makes local knowledge worth having.
Getting there
North of Taghazout on the road towards Cap Ghir, then a walk down over rocks. The wreck is visible from shore and makes the spot easy to identify. No facilities — bring water and everything you need.
The honest assessment
Boilers is genuinely good and genuinely unsuitable for most visitors. Experienced surfers with reef mileage should go with someone who knows the entry and the tide. Everyone else should watch it and surf Panoramas instead.
