The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, let's have a look at the forecast for Dracula. This is a solid, exposed reef break that's known for being very consistent, and it's an advanced spot, so it's not one for the groms. The water temperature is sitting at about 71°, which is about normal for this time of year, so no wetsuit drama.
We've got a decent run of swell coming our way, starting this Friday morning, the 28th of August. The first real standout is that Friday morning session. We're looking at a clean 6ft swell from the NNW, but here's the best part: it's glassy. Absolutely dead calm winds. The wave energy is moderate (319). For a reef break, that's a beautiful combination. It's going to be a clean, rippable morning.
Friday afternoon the wind swings around and the size jumps to 8ft, but it gets a bit messy with a cross-shore wind. The morning is the pick.
The real highlight of the whole forecast is Saturday morning, the 29th of August. The swell is a solid 7ft from the NNW, with a period of 10 seconds, giving it some real push. The wave energy is strong (876). And again, we have glassy conditions. That is a top-tier session for the advanced crew. It's going to be clean, powerful, and lined up. Expect some good ones.
Sunday the 30th drops off a little, and conditions get more marginal. We have a bit of a lull through the middle of the week, with the swell dropping out and the wind turning onshore. From Monday the 31st through to Thursday the 3rd of September, there are some clean windows in the mornings, but the energy is down. Not worth rushing out for.
After that, things go flat. From Friday the 4th of September right through to Thursday the 10th of September, it's a proper blank run. The swell is tiny, under 3ft, and the energy is weak. It's going to be a very quiet period for the reef.
But hold on. The long-range forecast is showing a promising pulse of swell coming back in. Friday morning, the 11th of September, we're looking at a 7ft NNW swell with glassy conditions and strong energy (606). That's another cracker. And then Saturday morning, the 12th of September, it's a repeat: 7ft, glassy, clean. It's a bit far out so don't book your flights yet, but it's got the potential to be some of the best surf of the run.
So, for the advanced surfer, the clear standouts are this Friday morning, and especially Saturday morning. Get out there.

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.
