Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what Dracula has lined up for us.
It’s gonna be a slow start, no doubt. For the first week, through to around the 12th of July, Dracula is offering pretty much nothing worth getting wet for. The swell’s tiny, the period is short, and most of the time the wind is messing it up. You’re looking at a solid 9-day stretch of flat or poor conditions. A few glassy mornings pop up on the 6th, 7th, and 8th, but the swell height is below 3ft and the period is under 8 seconds – just not enough push for a decent wave.
Things finally start to show some life around Monday the 13th. The swell picks up to 5ft from the NNW with a 7-second period, and the combined energy is moderate (263). The wind is light and cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit bumpy, but at least there’s something to paddle for. It’s a marginal call though.
The real standout window comes mid-week. On Wednesday morning the 15th, the conditions line up perfectly. We’ve got a 7ft NNW swell with an 8-second period, and the wind goes glassy – dead calm. That’s the moment. The energy is strong (630), and for a reef break like Dracula, those clean, calm conditions are a major positive. This will be the best surf of the whole 16-day period. Just know that with a swell this size, over 5ft, it’s pushing into expert territory. The afternoon gets choppy again as the wind swings cross-onshore.
Moving into the second week, Thursday the 16th and Friday the 17th keep the swell solid, around 6ft to 7ft, but the wind is mostly onshore or side-shore, so the quality drops off. Saturday the 18th is similar – messy. Then Sunday morning the 19th offers another bright spot: a 6ft NNW swell, 8-second period, and glassy conditions again. It’s not as big as Wednesday, but clean and rideable with strong energy (357). A solid option for a weekend sesh.
Bottom line: save your energy for Wednesday the 15th and Sunday the 19th. Those are the two mornings where Dracula will show its true face. The rest is a waiting game.

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.
