Today's score by level (at the day's best, out of 100)
Casablanca's historic multi-peak beach break (notably around Porte 15), known for its fast waves, its sometimes powerful shorebreak and its local vibe. The sandbanks shift regularly with the storms, making the spot's quality vary.
October to April is ideal. NW swells fire regularly, with less rain than Europe.
Good level required. You can stand, paddle and read a peak. When it fires, better know what you're doing.
Easy beach access, parking usually nearby. Ask locally about seasonal currents.
Wear an appropriate wetsuit. Scout the currents before you paddle out. Respect the locals and right-of-way. Check weather and tides.
Aïn Diab usually works best around mid-tide. The tide shapes the sandbanks and the depth over the reef, so check the day's tide times before your session.
Aïn Diab is rather recommended for intermediate surfers. If you're a beginner, prefer a surf school, a small swell and a suitable tide, or look for a more sheltered nearby spot.
The ideal wind at Aïn Diab comes broadly from East: it's offshore, which helps shape and hold the waves. A strong onshore wind generally degrades conditions.
Around Aïn Diab, you can also check conditions at Dar Bouazza, Oualidia, Safi. Compare the scores, wind and swell direction before choosing where to surf.
