The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what this stretch is serving up for our little slice of coast.
Honestly, it’s a tough outlook. For the next couple of weeks, Asilah isn't exactly firing. We’ve got a long gap of really poor conditions at the start. From Tuesday the 28th of July all the way through to Sunday the 2nd of August, it’s pretty much a write-off – tiny little bumps under 3ft with messy, chop-inducing cross-onshore winds. Not worth paddling out for.
The first glimmer of anything rideable shows up on Saturday morning, the 1st of August. It’s still only small, around 2ft from the WNW, but the wind goes dead glassy and calm. That’s a major positive for clean conditions. The combined energy is weak (74), but you could get a few slow ones if you’re desperate for a splash.
Things stay pretty average until we hit the second week. Come Thursday the 6th of August, the swell starts to nudge up, and we see a bit more energy roll in. Friday morning the 7th of August sees the biggest of the run: 4ft from the WNW, with a combined energy of (192). That’s moderate wave energy, but the period is short at 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit lumpy and disorganised, especially with the onshore wind. This is definitely more of a challenge – too small for a proper thrill, but the size might be a bit much for beginners due to the lack of shape.
The standout in this whole forecast has to be Wednesday morning, the 12th of August. We get 3ft from the WNW, with a period of 9 seconds, and the wind goes completely glassy – dead calm. Combined energy is (151). That’s the cleanest it’s going to get. The water temp is sitting at 74°, which is basically bang on average for this time of year.
For the rest of the run, the winds are mostly cross-on or onshore, keeping the surface messy. There’s a couple of mornings on the 10th and 11th of August where the wind goes cross-offshore (clean), but the wave heights and energy are still modest. Nothing screams “drop everything and go”.
So, if you’re keen and patient, the Saturday morning (1st August) glass-off is your best early bet for a quiet, clean paddle. But the real highlight is Wednesday the 12th of August – that glassy dawn session looks like the pick of the lot. Keep an eye on it, but don't hold your breath for anything epic.
Rusty.

Information about the Asilah Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Asilah provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Asilah can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Asilah surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Asilah) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Asilah may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Asilah is 6 km (4 miles) from the city of Asilah. If you plan a holiday in Tangier to Rabat, look for hotels and other accommodation in Asilah. Asilah has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
