The Lowdown
Alright fellas, Rusty again, but let me break this down in feet and miles per hour for those who think in yards.
Water’s a touch colder than the norm, sitting at 71°. That’s about 3° cooler than usual, so a spring suit is your mate.
The first week’s a bit of a dud, to be honest. Swell stays small and weak, with combined energy mostly under 100, hitting a peak of 128 on the afternoon of August 1st. You'll see clean 1ft to 3ft slop with short periods, so it’s surfable but not worth the effort. That stretch from July 29th all the way through the morning of August 8th is basically a blank run. The afternoon of August 8th shows some jump – 4ft from the NW with energy hitting 377 – but it’s still labelled marginal. Hard pass.
You want to wait for the morning of August 9th. That’s the first real window: 5ft from the NW at 9 seconds, energy at 328. Cross-off wind, so waves will be clean. Doura is a river break and you need to be advanced for this one. Crowds can pop up sometimes. The NW direction is exactly what it needs.
The morning of August 10th is also solid: 5ft from the NW at 8 seconds, energy 296, clean again with cross-off. Then the real gem is the morning of Tuesday August 11th – 5ft from the NW at 8 seconds, energy 291, with near glassy wind. That’s about as good as it gets in this window.
The swell drops after that. The morning of August 13th goes glassy with a tiny 2ft from the WNW, period 9s, energy 139. Surfable, but nothing to chase.
If you want my shout – the morning of Tuesday August 11th at Doura is your best bet. 5ft, glassy, NW swell. That’s the one.
Rusty.

Information about the Doura Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Doura provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Doura can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Doura 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 (Doura) 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 Doura 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.
Doura is 2 km (1 miles) from the city of Rabat. If you plan a holiday in Rabat to Casblanca, look for hotels and other accommodation in Rabat. Rabat has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
