The Lowdown
Righto, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Tayfor over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you, mate—this stretch is looking pretty flat and ordinary, so I’m not gonna sugarcoat it.
We’ve got the entire 16-day window here, and for a solid fourteen days it's a whole lot of nothing. The first bit of surf that even gets a passing nod isn’t until Friday morning, 31 July, and even then it’s a pretty average affair. We see a small NW swell pushing in at 4ft, but the period is a snappy, weak 7 seconds, so it’s going to lack any grunt. The wind is a cross-offshore breeze from the NE at 9 mph, which is decent enough to keep the surface clean, but the energy is just not there—the combined energy of all swells directed here is only 109 (moderate). The real kicker is the water temp—coming in at 70°, which is a solid 3° colder than normal for this time of year. That’s a bit noticeable, you’ll be glad you brought the winter rubber.
That Friday morning is the only real window where you might even bother paddling out, and I’d call it “promising” only in the loosest sense. After that, the rest of the run is a washout. We’ve got tiny swells from the NW and NNW, mostly under 3ft, with periods dropping as low as 5 or 6 seconds. That’s just not going to wrap in with any push. The wind is persistent from the north quadrant, often moderate and cross to cross-onshore, which kills the surface quickly. By the time we get to Saturday, 8 August, the swell bumps up to 5ft with a 7-second period, and the combined energy hits 217 (strong), but the wind is light cross-shore in the morning—so it’s ‘marginal surf’ at best. The waves might be there, but it’s going to be a messy, choppy affair with that short period.
Honestly, mate, this is a poor run for Tayfor. The consistent northerly flows and lack of any proper groundswell mean we’re in a real dry spell. The only day I’d even consider suiting up is Friday, 31 July, early. Keep your expectations low, and you might not be too disappointed.

Information about the Tayfor Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Tayfor provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Tayfor can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Tayfor 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 (Tayfor) 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 Tayfor 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.
Tayfor is 11 km (7 miles) from the very large city of Mohammedia. If you plan a holiday in Rabat to Casblanca, look for hotels and other accommodation in Mohammedia. Mohammedia has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as cheap car hire and transport links.
