The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Asilah. Gotta be straight with you – this stretch is looking pretty flat and frustrating for a good while. There’s a real dry spell for the first week or so, so don’t be in a rush to wax up.
The water temp is sitting right on 73°, which is bang on average for this time of year – nothing out of the ordinary there.
We kick off Friday the 31st of July with a tiny, weak 2 ft WNW swell at 6 seconds, and a messy cross-shore wind. That’s a no-go. The whole first week is a write-off – tiny waves, poor conditions, and a lot of cross-onshore wind messing things up. The combined swell energy is weak, barely hitting 100, so it’s a real struggle. Saturday morning the 1st of August has a small window of clean-ish surf with a 1 ft WNW groundswell at 10 seconds and a light cross-offshore breeze, but it’s so small you’d be fighting for scraps. Not worth the paddle.
The pattern doesn’t really improve until we get into the second week. There’s a glimmer Monday morning the 10th of August – the wind drops to glass, and we get a 4 ft WNW swell at 7 seconds. The energy is moderate (121), but it’s just surfable, not spectacular. The real standout is Wednesday morning the 12th of August. We’ve got a 4 ft WNW swell, period up to 9 seconds, and the wind is light and variable – almost glassy. The combined energy hits 283 (moderate), and it’s the best-looking pulse of the whole forecast. It’s a beginner-friendly break, exposed to the NW, and with an offshore wind from the ESE, it’ll be clean. Crowds are often a thing here, so expect company.
After that, Thursday the 13th and Friday the 14th still have some 4 ft swell, but the wind swings back to cross-onshore, chopping it up. The energy stays moderate (258-302), but the quality drops. For the following weekend, the 15th and 16th, it’s back to small, weak stuff.
Honestly, if you’re itching for a paddle, Wednesday morning the 12th of August is your only real shot at something decent. The rest is a waiting game.

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.
