The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for Dracula over the next couple of weeks.
Alright, it's a bit of a slow start and a mixed bag overall, but there are some windows of clean, fun surf if you're patient. The whole run is a bit up and down, with some solid swell but the wind is often the bad guy. The first real standout is a beauty, and there's another one way down the line that looks promising.
The water temp is about average for the time of year, so grab a spring suit and you'll be fine.
We kick off on Sunday the 6th with small, weak waves. The morning has 4ft of short-period NNW swell but the energy is weak (151) and it's a bit windy. It's surfable, but nothing to get excited about. Monday the 7th stays small and messy, with the wind turning onshore. Tuesday the 8th is more of the same, with a long-period 12-second swell at 3ft but it's cross-on and the energy is still moderate (341).
Now, Wednesday the 9th morning is where things get interesting. The swell jumps up to 6ft from the NNW, still short-period at 8 seconds, but the energy is getting solid (578). The wind is light and cross, so it's clean. This is a solid session for an advanced surfer, as the size is pushing into the "too big for beginners" territory. It's your first real good call, but keep an eye on the afternoon as it gets blown out by a strong cross-wind.
Thursday the 10th morning is another potential standout. We've got 6ft of NNW swell, still short-period, and the combined energy is moderate (411). The real winner here is the light, cross-offshore breeze from the north. That makes for clean, rippable waves. This is a top pick for a Thursday morning session, but it's for advanced guys only at that size. The swell is over 5ft, so it's a bit much for beginners.
Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th have the swell dropping slightly but staying around 5ft to 6ft. The real treat is on Saturday the 12th morning. The wind goes glassy, and the swell is 5ft from the NNW with a moderate energy (331). The forecast calls for "glassy" conditions. That is a major positive. That is a prime window for clean, fun waves. This is the best on offer in the first week. The crowd profile says "sometimes," so you might have some company, but it's worth it.
Sunday the 13th morning is a smaller, glassy 4ft wave, but it's a bit weak. The following week gets a bit more inconsistent. The swell pulses again on Tuesday the 15th with 7ft on the morning, but the wind is cross, so it's lumpy. That size is definitely for experts only.
Then we get a real gem way out. On Thursday the 17th, the morning is absolute glass with the wind dead calm. The swell is a small 3ft, but it's a clean NNW swell (8 seconds) and the energy is low (206). It's a great window for a longboard or a funboard. A truly clean, glassy morning.
The run fades out towards the end. The final real standout is on Friday the 18th morning. The wind is calm again, glassy, and the swell has bumped up to 4ft from the NNW with a longer 9-second period. The energy is good (390). This is a promising, clean session for the weekend, but it's a long way out, so don't hold your breath.
After that, the swell drops off fast. By Sunday the 20th and Monday the 21st, we're down to 2ft and 2ft with very weak energy. It's pretty much flat for a paddle.
So, to wrap it up: The clear winners are the glassy Saturday morning on the 12th with a solid 5ft, and the glassy Thursday morning on the 17th for cleaner, smaller waves. The Wednesday 9th and Thursday 10th mornings are also good for the advanced crew. Don't bother with the afternoons, the wind is almost always a mess.
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.
