The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
The main event is a solid, consistent run of NNW swell hitting Dracula, a heavy reef break. We’re kicking off straight away with no waiting around, but the quality will be a game of two halves thanks to the wind.
Tuesday the 1st starts off with a beauty. Dracula is seeing a clean 7ft NNW swell with an 8-second period, and the wind is glassy. The water is sitting at 68°, which is a bit colder than usual for this time of year, so you might want a slightly thicker suit. The wave energy is moderate (560). That morning session is the standout early on. The afternoon gets ruined by a strong cross-shore, so get in early.
Wednesday the 2nd is another good one. The morning has a clean 7ft swell with a light cross-offshore breeze. It’s not glassy, but it’s clean (567 energy). The afternoon turns to junk with a light cross-onshore, so again, it’s a dawn patrol call.
The best run of the whole forecast starts on Thursday the 9th. We’ve got a 7ft NW swell, glassy conditions, and moderate wave energy (721). That Thursday morning is looking like a true standout. For the experts out there, this is your window. The swell bumps up to 8ft on the afternoon of the 12th and again on the morning of the 13th with glassy conditions. That Sunday the 13th morning with 7ft and a glassy calm wind (515 energy) is another top-tier call, but just remember, at 8ft, this is strictly for the advanced crew.
There are a few juicy windows in between. The morning of the 7th has a glassy 5ft that’s worth a look, and the 12th of September morning has a clean 6ft (403 energy) before the wind picks up. The 10th morning is also a glassy 4ft, a good option for a smaller board.
After that, the swell fades. The 15th and 16th are small and weak, with the 16th seeing a 1ft groundswell with a 12-second period, but the wind is a mess. That short window of fun is over.
Crowds are only “sometimes” an issue at Dracula, but with this consistent run of swell, you can bet there will be a few cars in the lot for the morning glass-offs.
Signing off, 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.
