The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for 23 Beach. We’ve got a bit of a waiting game on our hands this first week, but there's a real gem hiding at the end of the forecast period if you can be patient.
Right off the bat, conditions are pretty average. Wednesday the 2nd and Thursday the 3rd are nothing to write home about – poor surf with a cross-chop and only knee-high junk. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there. Friday the 4th morning offers a tiny, glassy 0.8m (3ft) NW swell, but it’s barely worth the paddle. Saturday the 5th is flat and messy, with onshore winds.
We get a flicker of hope on Sunday the 6th morning. A clean, cross-offshore breeze from the east meets a 0.8m (3ft) NW groundswell (9-second period), and the energy is moderate (239). It’s small, but it’s rideable. Monday the 7th morning sees a bit more size at 0.8m (3ft) from the NNW, but the 11-second period and cross-shore wind make it a bit bumpy. Energy jumps to moderate (354), but the quality isn't there. The rest of that week into the second week is a frustrating mix of onshore winds and small, choppy slop. There’s a run from the 8th through the 13th where it’s just not happening – mostly poor conditions with moderate to strong cross-onshore winds.
Now, here’s the standout. Mark your calendars for Monday the 14th morning. The stars finally align. We’ve got a glassy, calm morning, a solid 1.8m (6ft) NNW swell rolling in, and the combined energy is pushing strong (504). This is the best on offer. The swell is over 1.5m (5ft), so it’ll be pushing into that intermediate zone, but with zero wind making it glassy, the waves will be clean and lined up. That morning session is the one to target. The afternoon does get chopped up by the wind again, so get it early.
The following days, Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th, look more marginal with smaller swell and more onshore influence. Thursday the 17th offers a small 0.8m (3ft) WNW groundswell with a very long 12-second period, but the cross-on wind will probably close it out at a beach break like this one.
So, the call: endure the flat and choppy first week, and you’ll be rewarded with that glassy Monday the 14th morning. It’s the clear winner.

Information about the 23 Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for 23 Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at 23 Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our 23 Beach 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 (23 Beach) 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 23 Beach 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.
23 Beach is 11 km (7 miles) from the city of Casablanca. If you plan a holiday in Rabat to Casblanca, look for hotels and other accommodation in Casablanca. Casablanca has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
