The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s in store for the next couple of weeks at Tayfor.
We’re in a bit of a dry spell to start. The first few days are pretty grim with poor conditions and onshore winds, so don’t get your hopes up for a session right now.
The outlook starts to turn around on Friday the 18th. That morning looks like the first real standout. We’ve got about 6ft of NW swell rolling in with glassy conditions. The water temp is sitting at a pretty normal 72°, so nothing unusual there for this time of year. Combined wave energy is moderate at 569. This is a solid intermediate option, and it’s consistent. Keep in mind the crowd factor here – there’s a chance it could get a bit busy.
Saturday the 19th morning is another good one. A bit smaller at 4ft from the NNW, but again glassy. That clean surface will make for some really pleasant waves. Energy drops a bit to 494, but still nice.
Sunday the 20th morning offers similar conditions: 4ft NNW, glassy. Good fun.
Monday the 21st morning drops off a little to 3ft NNW, still glassy. It’s small but clean.
Now, for the real highlight of this whole period – Wednesday the 23rd morning. This is where it gets serious. We have a very long-period groundswell of 16 seconds from the NW, pushing 4ft of swell. The combined energy jumps right up to 1026 (strong wave energy). Offshore winds from the NE will keep it clean. This is an excellent setup for experienced surfers, and it’s a consistent spot. The long period means it’ll be best on a point or reef, not so much a beach break. This is the one to circle on your calendar.
Saturday the 26th morning also looks promising, with another long-period NW swell (16 seconds) at 4ft combined with light offshore winds. Energy is strong at 866. Very clean conditions.
Things tail off after that. There’s a gap of a few days with poor to ordinary surf as we head into the start of October, with only a tiny 2ft glassy morning on Thursday the 1st giving a slim chance of a wave.
So, to sum it up: the best bet is Wednesday the 23rd morning. Big energy, clean, and for the experienced crew. Friday the 18th morning and Saturday the 26th morning are your other top calls for a good session.
Stay salty,
Rusty

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.
