The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up for us.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. We're looking at a long, frustrating run of poor surf conditions that kicks off on Wednesday, August 5th and just doesn't let up for days. You'll see some swell, with heights ranging from 2ft to 4ft and combined energy mostly sitting in that moderate bracket around 118 to 211, but the problem is the wind. It's locked in from the N to NNE, blowing cross-onshore to onshore, churning everything up into a choppy mess. Even when the swell picks up a bit, the quality is just gone.
There is one tiny glimmer, and it's on Friday morning, August 7th, at 23 Beach. The wind swings light cross-shore from the NE at 6 mph, which is the cleanest we'll see for a while. Swell is 4ft from the NNW with a period of 7 seconds. It's still a short-period wind swell, so it won't have the punch of a groundswell, but that lighter breeze might just make it surfable for a bit. The water temp is sitting at 72°, which is about normal for the time of year.
The rest of the first week and into the second is more of the same. We're looking at a solid 12-day run from August 5th to the 16th where it's just poor conditions day in and day out. You'll see swell around 3ft to 4ft, but with those persistent onshore winds, the wave comment says it all: "poor surf conditions."
Things might get slightly more interesting toward the end of the run. On Thursday morning, August 20th, we see the swell bump up to 5ft from the NW with a period of 8 seconds and an energy reading of 242. The wind looks like it could go calm (5 mph from the NNW), which would finally give us some clean faces. But that's over two weeks away, so treat that one as a hopeful maybe – forecasts can change. The period is still short though, so don't expect groundswell-quality lines.
In short, for the next week or so, unless you're desperate for a paddle, save the energy. The forecast can always change, but right now the odds are stacked against us for quality surf at 23 Beach.

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.
