Tayfor (Mohammedia Coast)

Tayfor is an exposed Atlantic beach-break that usually has waves and sits on the Mohammedia stretch between Rabat and Casablanca. It’s characterized as consistent for local-style surfing, with a layout that can produce both left- and right-hand rides depending on sandbar conditions. Surf quality is described as good with a moderate wave power and a peeling wave shape. The spot is generally described as working across all tides, though mid-tide is often noted as the sweet spot for the best wave shape. For swell, it’s best aligned with northwest to west directions, with an expected working range around 1.0 to 2.5 meters. Wind at Tayfor is influenced by sea-breeze and thermal patterns, with regular afternoon sea breezes reported in spring and summer. A typical reported wind range is about 12–20 knots, with light gustiness and moderate reliability. Recommended wind months for this spot are May through September (with a broader seasonal seasonal surf window in the region described as September through March). For safety, the most important warnings are strong rip currents during larger swells, submerged rocks near the edges, and potential urban runoff after heavy rain. Rescue availability is limited and lifeguards are seasonal, so it’s especially important to time sessions carefully and stay aware of changing conditions around shorebreak and swell size.
