Surfing Casablanca

Left Point · Best Oct-Mar · 2-8 ft · Crowd 4/5

NW swell, SSE wind, low tide

Dar Bouazza, also called La Bobine, is a left point in the southern suburbs of Casablanca. It's best at low tide on a north-west swell and is one of the better waves near the city.

Watch out for the old wreck, sea urchins, rocks and rips. When the swell is good it gets crowded with local surfers.

It's at its best at low tide on a north-west swell, from October to March. The local crew from Casablanca surfs it at weekends, so weekdays are quieter. Jack Beach, a few kilometres west, is easier for beginners.

Beach Break · Best Year-round · 1-5 ft · Crowd 2/5

NW swell, SE wind

Jack Beach is a beach break a few kilometres west of Dar Bouazza, with lefts and rights. It's consistent and the waves are mostly easy, so it suits beginners and improvers.

It's usually quieter than the point and close to Casablanca, so it's an easy session if you're in the city.

It's a good place for lessons and improvers, and works most of the year. Surf schools and a few cafés are nearby, and Dar Bouazza, a few kilometres east, has a better wave for experienced surfers.
