The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for our little stretch of coast.
It’s been a bit of a slow start, but there’s a window of decent swell coming our way. The first week or so is pretty lackluster, with small, short-period swells and messy winds. We’re looking at about a 6-day gap of nothing worth getting excited about, just small, ordinary waves with cross-shore or cross-offshore breeze. The water temp is sitting at 73°, which is about normal for this time of year, nothing special.
The real standout action kicks off on Saturday, August 15th. For the morning session, Doura is looking like the pick of the bunch. We’ve got a clean 4ft NW swell pushing through with a 10-second period, combined energy of 313 (moderate) – that’s some real energy moving through. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNE at 9 mph, meaning clean, lined-up waves. This is a river break, and with that longer period, the sets will have some punch, but it’s suited to advanced surfers only. The swell is pushing 4ft, so it’s manageable for experienced crew, but it’s not for beginners. That NW direction is exactly what this spot likes. It’s fairly consistent, but crowds are possible, so get in early.
The next solid day is Sunday, August 16th morning. The wind drops to dead glassy, calm as can be, with a 4ft NW swell at 10 seconds. Combined energy is 240 (moderate). It’s a smaller, cleaner option, but with zero wind, the surface will be perfect. Still, the waves are just ordinary, nothing to write home about compared to Saturday.
Looking further out, Saturday, August 22nd afternoon is shaping up as another serious contender. We’ve got a 5ft NW swell with a 9-second period, combined energy of 384 (strong). A gentle cross-offshore breeze from the NNW at 9 mph will keep it clean. That’s good, solid, powerful surf. It’s getting up there in size, so it’s for the experienced crew only. The whole week prior is a bit of a write-off, but this one’s worth circling on the calendar.
So, the best on offer is Saturday morning, August 15th at Doura, with Saturday afternoon, August 22nd as a close second. The rest is mostly just small, weak, or messy.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
