The Lowdown
Right, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Dracula.
We’ve got a stretch of surf on offer, but honestly, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. The real standout window is gonna be this Wednesday morning, the 2nd of September. That’s the pick of the bunch. We’re looking at a solid 7ft groundswell from the NNW, with a period of 8 seconds, and the wind is light offshore from the ESE. That’s going to set up some proper, clean waves at this exposed reef break. The combined energy is moderate at 567, and with the water temp sitting at 69°, which is about average for the time of year, you won’t need a thick suit. The swell is a bit over 5ft, so it’s starting to get a bit punchy for beginners, but for the experienced crew, this is going to be firing. The crowds are sometimes a thing here, so you might have a few others with the same idea.
After that, things drop off. Thursday the 3rd and Friday the 4th see the swell backing off and the wind turning cross-shore, making for pretty ordinary conditions. The weekend is no great shakes either. Saturday morning, the 5th, is glassy, but the swell is only 4ft from the NW with a short, weak 6-second period and combined energy of just 104. It’s surfable, but nothing to write home about.
We get a bit of a pulse again on Monday the 7th morning. The swell is 5ft from the NNW, but the wind is glassy from the south, so the waves should be clean. The combined energy is moderate at 342. It’s a decent option, but not as strong as that Wednesday.
Then there’s a bit of a wait. The next real standout pops up a week later, on Monday the 14th of September. The morning session is looking good with a 3ft groundswell from the NW, a very long period of 13 seconds, and glassy conditions. The combined energy is moderate at 354. This long-period swell will wrap in nicely here at the reef, giving you some great, well-shaped waves and long lulls between sets. It’s a promising call, but being that far out, it’s not as locked in as the first one.
The rest of the forecast is a messy mix of onshore winds and chop, with a few more windows of clean but smaller surf. The 16th of September morning has a 3ft groundswell from the NW with a 16-second period, but the cross-shore wind is going to ruin it. The very end of the period, the 17th of September, has a 4ft groundswell from the NW, but the wind is all over the shop.
So, to wrap it up: your best bet is Wednesday morning the 2nd, with the early morning glass on Monday the 14th being a solid second option if you’re willing to wait and see.
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.
