The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's talk Asilah in feet and miles per hour, because that's how the tape reads sometimes. Looking at the full 16-day window, and I'm being honest, it's a real slow burn. The water temp is about 72°, normal for the season.
The first day you could even consider paddling out is the morning of Sunday, September 6th. We're talking a tiny 2ft swell from the WNW with a light offshore breeze out of the east. The wave energy is weak (61), so it's a longboard, small-wave kind of dawn patrol. It's surfable, but it's not going to get the blood pumping.
The following week is mostly a bust. The swell does try to pick up – Monday the 7th has 3ft, and Tuesday the 8th hits 4ft from the WNW, with a 11-second period from a groundswell (moderate energy of 397). But the wind is a nightmare. It's cross-onshore or onshore, blowing 20-30 mph, chopping everything up. That Tuesday morning swell might look tempting, but with that onshore wind, it's going to be a mess.
We finally get a small window of clean conditions mid-month. On the morning of Monday, September 16th, there's a 2ft swell from the WNW with a long 14-second period. That's a groundswell with real punch, even if the height is small. The wind is a light cross-shore, which is a huge plus for a clean face. The energy is moderate at 179.
The best bet of the whole outlook is the morning of Thursday, September 17th. A 2ft swell from the NW with a 13-second period, and again, a light cross-shore breeze. The energy is a solid 166. It's a similar setup to the day before, but that combination of long-period groundswell and clean, light wind makes it the best chance for a few lined-up, rideable waves. It's not a big day, but it's the cleanest one.
Overall, Asilah is stuck in a funk. Small swell, bad wind. The few bright spots are tiny and require a lot of patience. If you're looking to get a kite in the air, those afternoons with 4ft+ and strong onshore wind might be your jam. For a surfer, it's a lot of waiting for very little reward. Keep the wax dry.
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.
