The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Dracula over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta tell you, the forecast is a bit of a mixed bag. We’ve got some pulses of swell coming through, but the wind is going to be the main player here, and it’s not always on our side. The water temp is sitting right around 70°, which is pretty much average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first real chance to get wet is Monday morning, September 7th. We’ve got a small but clean 2ft swell from the NW, with a really nice 12-second period. The wind is glassy, dead calm out of the west. That’s the kind of morning you paddle out for. The combined energy is moderate at 345, but the quality will be there. It’s a true standout for the week.
Things get a bit messy after that. The wind swings around to the north and northwest, and it’s going to be cross-shore or cross-onshore for a solid stretch. The swell builds – by Wednesday the 9th we’re into 7ft from the NNW, but that combined energy is up to 565, and the wind is a fresh 19 mph. That’s a lot of lumpy, choppy water. Not great for a paddle. Honestly, for a few days there, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The next real highlight comes much later, on Monday morning, September 14th. That’s a week away, so keep it in the back of your mind. We’ve got a 3ft groundswell from the NW with a very long 14-second period. The wind is light from the southeast, clean and cross-off. The combined energy is moderate at 349. While the period is long, which can make a beach break a bit straight, Dracula is a reef, so it should handle that energy well. That’s another morning to circle on the calendar.
After that, things taper off. The second week is quieter. There’s a brief moment on Monday morning, September 21st, with a clean 4ft swell and a light cross-off wind, but the period is short at 6 seconds, so the waves will be a bit weak and sectiony. The combined energy is low at 203. It’s surfable, but it’s no standout.
So, to sum it up: you’ve got two golden windows. This Monday morning, September 7th, for the glassy, clean conditions, and Monday morning, September 14th, for the long-period groundswell. The rest of the time, the wind is going to be the enemy.
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.
