The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on tap at Dracula. This is a reef break for advanced surfers only, and it’s very consistent, exposed to the swell. The optimum direction is from the west, but the forecast is all north-northwest.

We’ve got a solid run of waves coming, but the wind is going to be your biggest enemy. The water temp is sitting at 71°F, which is pretty much normal for this time of year.

The best window to get out is the first two mornings. Saturday morning, August 8th, is the standout. We’ve got a clean 6ft swell from the NNW, but with a short period of 7 seconds. The wind is glassy from the ENE, so the surface will be perfect. The combined swell energy is moderate (344). It’s not a huge, powerful groundswell, but with that wind, it’ll be the cleanest of the whole run.

Monday morning, August 10th, is another very good call. The swell drops a touch to 6ft from the same NNW direction, but the wind goes completely calm. It’s flat-out glassy, which is a massive plus. The energy is a bit lower (297), but still moderate. This is your second best bet.

The afternoons, and most of the following week, are a write-off. The wind swings around to the north-northwest and cranks up to 15-19 mph, turning the surface into a lumpy cross-chop mess. It’s a beach-and-reef setup, so with that wind and the short-period swell, you might as well be looking at a kiteboarding session.

Sunday morning, August 9th, is a bit of a gamble. The swell is a little bigger at 6ft and the energy is moderate (470), but the wind is a light cross-shore, so it won’t be as clean as Saturday.

The rest of the first week has some surfable mornings with glassy or light wind, like Tuesday (4ft, 158 energy) and Wednesday (5ft, 221 energy), but the swell is dropping and the quality is just “ordinary.” Saturday morning, August 15th, shows a bit of promise with a glassy 6ft swell from the NNW and a slightly longer period of 8 seconds, pushing the energy up to 383. That’s a decent-looking morning, but treat it as a long-range hope – not a lock.

From August 18th onward, the swell fades into the 3ft to 4ft range, the period stretches out, and the cross-shore wind stays annoying. The last possible morning that looks semi-interesting is Sunday, August 23rd, with a tiny 3ft swell and a clean cross-offshore breeze from the SSE. But it’s a long way off and the waves will be small.

In short, get on it early on the 8th and the 10th. After that, it’s a battle with the wind.

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.
