Alright, Rusty here, taking a look at what's on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, for the first week and a half, it's a real struggle. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with nothing really worth paddling out for. From now until around the 12th of July, the waves are tiny, weak, and the wind is just wrong. The combined energy barely gets into double figures, sitting at weak levels (53) to (77). You’d be fighting a losing battle. It's a frustrating stretch.
Then, around the 12th, we start to see the energy jump up, but the conditions are still poor. The wind is a mess, and the swell is short-period, crumbly stuff. It’s not until the morning of the 14th of July that we get a real glimmer of hope. The wind goes glassy, dead calm, at Dracula. The swell is a modest 4ft from the NNW, but it’s a clean slate. The wave energy is moderate (181). It’s not going to be pumping, but it’s surfable, and that glassy morning is a rare treat. The water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year.
The real standout, and the one to circle on your calendar, is the morning of Friday the 18th of July. Dracula is showing a solid 6ft of NNW groundswell, with a decent period, and the wind is forecast to be glassy. The wave energy is hefty (443). This is a proper window. The wind is perfect, the swell is well overhead, but it’s not just for beginners—it’s a juicier wave. That morning session is the best on offer, no question. The next morning, the 19th, might be a bit too big for most, pushing 7ft, and a bit more wind-affected, but the 18th is the one.
So, stick with it. It’s a tough start, but that Friday the 18th is worth the wait.

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.
