The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Let's break down what's cooking for Asilah.
Honestly, mate, it's a pretty quiet stretch ahead. The water's sitting at about 74°, which is pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year, so no surprises there. We're looking at a long run of small, weak surf with hardly any energy in the water. The first few days are basically a write-off, with tiny waves and dodgy conditions. The combined swell energy is barely registering, often well under 100 (94), which tells you how weak it is.
Things don't really start to look like they might turn around until the morning of the 9th of September. That's when we get a bit of a pulse – a 4ft swell from the WNW, with a light offshore wind from the ENE. The wave energy finally climbs into the moderate range (202), and the conditions are clean. That Wednesday morning session is the first real standout, and for a beginner-friendly spot like Asilah, that's a nice little window. The swell period is short at 8 seconds, so it won't be packing much punch, but it's rideable and clean.
After that, it gets messy again with cross-onshore winds and lumpy conditions for a few days. The next real highlight is a fair way off, on the morning of the 15th of September. That's a Tuesday, and it's looking promising. We've got a long-period groundswell coming in from the WNW at 3ft, but the period is a massive 15 seconds. The combined energy jumps right up to 359, which is a solid sign of proper groundswell energy. With a light offshore breeze from the SSE, it should be clean. Now, with that long period, the sets will be fat and lined up, but on a beach break like Asilah, it might break a bit too straight. Still, for a beginner-friendly wave, the clean conditions and that push of energy make it worth a look. Keep in mind, this is a long-range call, so it's promising but not locked in yet.
The afternoon of the 15th gets a bit chopped by a cross-onshore wind, so the morning window is the one to target.
So, in summary: there's a lot of flat and ordinary days to sit through, but the mornings of the 9th and the 15th of September are your best bets. The 15th morning has the most potential with that long-period groundswell energy.
Rusty.

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.
