The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s see what this spot is offering up over the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a solid run of surf coming, all at this one reef break. Water temp is 69°F, which is about normal for this time of year. Dracula is an exposed reef, very consistent, and built for advanced surfing.
Starting Saturday, August 29th, the morning is the real deal. Glassy, zero wind, and a clean 7ft swell from the NNW with a 10-second period. The combined energy is 955, a solid push. This is your best early window. Afternoon gets a cross-shore wind, so mornings are the move.
Sunday the 30th is smaller at 5ft, still glassy in the morning but the period is short at 7 seconds, so the waves will be a bit weaker.
Monday the 31st is cloudy with a light onshore wind – not great, skip it.
Tuesday, September 1st – strong morning again. Light cross-offshore wind, 7ft NNW swell, energy at 512. Very good. Afternoon is blown out by a 30 km/h cross-shore wind.
Wednesday, September 2nd – glassy start, 7ft from the NNW, 9-second period, energy at 732. Another banger of a morning.
This pattern holds through the first week: glassy mornings with good swell, messy afternoons. By early September, the swell drops to around 4ft, energy dips into the 200s, but the mornings stay clean for a smaller-wave session.
The real standouts are Saturday August 29th and Wednesday September 2nd mornings – both glassy, solid 6–7ft swell, and proper energy.
Into the second week, around September 11th and 12th, the swell turns more NW with a long period of 13–16 seconds. Size is only about 3ft, but that long-period groundswell will wrap in with nice shape. Morning of the 12th is glassy – a sneaky good session for the patient surfer.
After that, it fades into smaller, choppier afternoons. The 13th is the last morning with any real appeal.
If you’re an advanced surfer who loves a reef break, the first four days are the gold – get out early. Crowds are possible, but the consistency is on your side.
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.
