Alright, Rusty here again, but in feet and miles per hour for you. Let’s break this down. Only one spot on the list: Dracula. And the whole 16-day window is a bummer. Early on, there’s basically nothing. The first few days have tiny, weak swell with poor wind – scores are flat zero. Tuesday the 7th and Wednesday the 8th have glassy mornings, but the swell is 2 to 3 ft at a short 5 to 6 seconds, and the combined energy is weak as hell (43 to 68). Not worth a paddle.

Thursday morning the 9th is the first sign of life: 4 ft from the NNW at 6 seconds, glassy, energy at 96 (still weak), described as “surfable but very ordinary.” It’s marginal. Afternoons get torn up by fresh cross-shore wind.

From the 10th onward, the swell builds to 5 to 7 ft, but the wind stays nasty – fresh cross or cross-on from the NNW, making a mess. Mornings on the 12th, 14th, 15th, 16th, and 17th are glassy or light cross, but the swell is from the NNW, not the preferred west, and the periods are short (6 to 8 seconds). This is windswell, not groundswell. Energy climbs into moderate range (148 to 524 by Thursday afternoon the 16th), but with that short period and cross-shore wind, it’s choppy and lumpy.

If I’m picking one standout, it’s Thursday morning the 9th – not good, but it’s the first time the wind goes flat and you might find a waist-high runner. After that, Tuesday morning the 14th gives you 6 ft at 8 seconds and gentle cross-shore chop – energy at 368 (moderate) – the biggest, cleanest window in the whole run, but still far from clean. Dracula can get crowded “sometimes,” so you might have it to yourself, which is rare enough. Water temp is 68°F, about average for July – anomaly is -0.9°F, so nothing wild.

From July 15 onward, afternoons are a write-off with strong winds, mornings stay marginal. Last real shot might be Saturday the 18th morning: 5 ft at 8 seconds, light cross-shore, 238 energy (moderate) – again, not special.

Bottom line: Dracula is a consistent reef, but this forecast is a long, dry spell. If you’re keen, pick a glassy morning with the biggest swell – the 14th or maybe the 16th morning. But don’t expect much. Most afternoons look better for kite surfing than paddle surfing, with that steady cross-shore wind and building chop.

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.
