The Lowdown
Right, let's have a look at what's on offer at Doura. It's a river mouth setup, and it's for the advanced crew only – this isn't a place for beginners. Over the next 16 days, we've got a bit of a mixed bag. The water's sitting at 73°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no nasty surprises there.
The first recommendation doesn't show up until Sunday the 9th. Up until then, the conditions are poor, so it's a waiting game. Sunday morning, we've got a clean 3ft swell from the NW, with a light cross-offshore breeze. The combined energy is weak (95), so it's not going to be pumping, but it's surfable. The period is short at 6 seconds, so expect a bit of a lumpy, less powerful wave.
Monday the 10th morning sees a slight increase to 4ft from the NW, but with a light cross-shore wind and low energy (125). Again, it's surfable but nothing to write home about. Tuesday the 11th is more of the same really – 4ft, NW, clean but ordinary.
Now, Wednesday the 12th morning is a bit of a standout for the first week. We've got offshore wind from the NE at 10 km/h, clean conditions, and a 3ft NW swell. The combined energy is right on the edge of moderate (100). It's not huge, but that offshore wind will make the waves hold up nicely. This is a good option for the more experienced surfer looking for a clean session.
Thursday the 13th morning the swell picks up to 4ft from the NW, but the period stretches to 9 seconds, giving it a bit more shape. The energy is moderate (223). The wind is a light cross-offshore, so it's clean. This is another solid window.
The real highlight, though, looks to be Saturday the 15th morning. The swell is up to 5ft from the NW, with an 8-second period and a combined energy of 289. The wind is light and cross-offshore, keeping it clean. This is the best looking surf of the whole forecast. It's a proper size for the advanced crew, but definitely not one for beginners. It's too big for a learner.
After that, the conditions drop off again. There's a long gap of poor conditions from Sunday the 16th through to Wednesday the 19th. Thursday the 20th and Friday the 21st stay poor, but by Saturday the 22nd morning, we get a glassy morning with a 3ft NW swell, period up to 9 seconds, and moderate energy (142). It's a nice, clean, small wave option.
The last notable session is Sunday the 23rd morning. Offshore wind from the NE again, 4ft from the NW, 8-second period, and clean. The energy is moderate (150). It's a decent way to finish the run.
So, to sum it up: the best bet is Saturday the 15th morning. That's the standout. For the advanced only, and it's going to be a fun session. The other decent windows are Wednesday the 12th morning, Thursday the 13th morning, and the glassy morning on Saturday the 22nd. Keep in mind, crowds are possible at Doura, so get in early.

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.
