Table - best surf conditions forecast for Dracula over the next 16 days.
The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. The only option in the 16-day window is Dracula, a very consistent advanced reef break that needs a west swell to really fire. The whole period is pretty lackluster, so we’re looking at a drawn-out run of small, short-period NNW swell that just doesn’t match what this spot wants. The water is sitting at 69°, which is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there.
The first real surfable window hits Tuesday morning, September 1st. Dracula’s showing 7 ft of NNW swell, with a light NE breeze making it cross-off and clean. The combined energy is moderate (527), but the swell period is only 8 seconds, so it’s a bit weak and won’t have much punch. Wednesday morning, September 2nd, is similar—7 ft, cross-off from the SSE, and clean, with moderate energy (581). These are the best spots in the whole run, but they’re not standouts by any stretch.
After that, it’s a long, frustrating grind. From Thursday, September 3rd, through to the end of the 16 days, the waves drop under 5 ft, the wind is mostly cross or onshore, and the energy fades into the low triple digits. There are a few glassy mornings—Sunday, September 6th, Monday, September 7th, and Friday, September 11th—but the swell is tiny and short-period, so it’s not going to offer much. On Sunday, September 13th, the morning has glassy 4 ft surf, but the period drops to 6 seconds, which is barely rideable.
Honestly, this is a tough period. Dracula is a good wave, but it’s starved for the right swell and the right wind. The best advice is to keep an eye on the Tuesday morning slots, but don’t get your hopes up. The rest of the month is a write-off.

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.
