The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty, and I’ve got the goods on Dracula. This is a serious, exposed reef break that’s gonna take some commitment. The water’s sitting at 73° right now, which feels a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

The overall pattern is a long run of medium-sized, consistent NNW swell, but the wind is the real story here. Most afternoons are going to be shredded by a fresh cross-shore breeze, so you’re really gonna want to be on the dawn patrol or the early mornings.

Let’s get into the details.

We start off with Wednesday the 5th with a 6ft NNW swell, but the cross-shore wind is already kicking up in the morning, and the afternoon is a write-off. Thursday the 6th is much the same story – a bit more size, but the afternoon wind is a killer.

Friday, August 7th is your first real standout. Get up early. The morning shows a clean 7ft swell from the NNW with glassy conditions. The wave energy is moderate (630). That’s the kind of session you’ll be telling your mates about. The afternoon will be blown out, so don’t sleep in.

Saturday the 8th has a similar vibe – another glassy morning with a 7ft NNW swell and moderate energy (585). Get on it early. The afternoons are no good.

Sunday the 9th is a bit of a letdown. The morning is cross-shore, and the swell drops a touch. The afternoons are a write-off through the rest of next week.

Monday, August 10th is interesting. The morning is dead calm, glassy, with a 5ft NNW swell. The energy is lower (247), but for a clean, cruisy session, it’s a solid option. The afternoon, again, the cross-shore ruins it.

The pattern from the 11th through the 12th is small, weak, and choppy. Not much to write home about.

Thursday, August 13th morning gives us another brief window. A glassy 5ft NNW swell (287) – clean, but small.

Saturday, August 15th is a potential standout, but it’s a week and a half out. The forecast shows a glassy morning with a solid 8ft NNW swell and strong energy (722). If that holds, it’ll be firing. Don’t get too excited yet, though.

Sunday the 16th morning still has glassy conditions and a 6ft swell, not bad at all.

After that, from Monday the 17th onward, the swell drops right off and the onshore winds take over. The 18th, 19th, and 20th are looking pretty poor – small, choppy, and not worth the paddle out. The last week of the forecast is a dead zone.

The best bet is Friday morning, August 7th, or Saturday morning, August 15th if the long-range forecast holds up. It’s a reef break, so it’s advanced territory, and it can get crowded sometimes. But when it’s glassy and the swell is up, it’s a special place.

Rusty.

Information about the Dracula Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Dracula provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Dracula can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Dracula 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 (Dracula) 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 Dracula 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.

Dracula is 24 km (15 miles) from the city of Agadir. If you plan a holiday in Central Morocco, look for hotels and other accommodation in Agadir. Agadir has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
