The Lowdown
Alright, me hearties, let’s look at what the sea’s got in store for us.
The first day or two are pretty woeful – small, weak waves and a messy, bumpy ocean. Not much to get excited about, so it might be a good time to get other things sorted. But don't worry, there is some proper groundswell coming down the pipe.
Things start to perk up on Wednesday the 16th. We see a pulse of 4ft of northwest energy early with clean conditions, but that wind clocks onshore and shreds it by the afternoon. You’ll want to be on a dawn patrol for that.
The pick of the first week is Saturday morning, the 19th. We’re looking at a clean, glassy 5-6ft of northwest groundswell. The wind’s offshore, the ocean's smooth, and the energy is right there. That’s your session.
There’s a secondary, smaller but still clean window on Sunday morning with offshore winds, but the main event is Saturday.
The second week sees a drop in size, but a rise in quality. The standout is Thursday morning, the 24th, with a clean 4ft of swell but with a 13-second period. This is where it gets interesting. For a reef like Dracula, this longer interval will make it fire. The fetches are long and lined-up. There's also a small but glassy 3-4ft on Friday morning, but Thursday is the one.
After that, things get small, dropping to 3ft and below by the following week. The ocean has a few clean moments, but the swell just isn't there. Still, we’ve got enough in the window to keep us interested. It will be interesting to see if any of those longer period pulses can materialize as forecasted.
Dracula (Dracula) - The featured spot, a proper reef that will be handling the long period swells all week, but it's strictly for the experts.

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.
