The Lowdown
Alright, let’s translate that to the old-school numbers.
We’re looking at Dracula for the next couple of weeks. It starts off Friday the 24th, but don't bother. There’s a 8ft swell from the NNW, but it’s getting hammered by a 30 km/h cross-wind. It’s lumpy and no fun.
Your clear standout is Saturday morning the 25th. The swell is still a solid 7ft from the NNW, but the wind goes glassy – dead calm. For an advanced reef, that’s as good as it gets. It’ll be clean, well-shaped, and powerful. The combined swell energy is moderate (615). After lunch, the wind swings onshore and it’s game over.
Sunday the 26th has similar 7ft swell, but it’s cross-shore and choppy all day. Monday morning the 27th is glassy but the swell drops to 6ft – it’s clean, but not the standout.
Then we hit a dead zone from Monday afternoon all the way through Friday the 31st. The swell drops below 4ft, wind is onshore or cross-shore, and the energy is weak (71 to 190). The wind is so dominant that this setup might actually be more interesting for kite surfing than for a paddle.
Saturday morning the 1st of August is glassy with a weak 4ft swell. It’s surfable but ordinary.
Sunday the 3rd of August morning brings another glassy session with a 3ft swell, but the period stretches to 10 seconds and the energy hits 262. It’s small, but clean and lined up for a grovel board.
From the 4th to the 8th of August, we see the swell jump back to 5ft to 6ft, but the wind is moderate to fresh and cross or cross-onshore. The energy is moderate (300-400), but the quality is patchy. There is a glassy window on Wednesday morning the 5th with a 5ft swell, but it's just a good session, not a great one.
Bottom line: if you’re only getting one session, make it Saturday morning the 25th. That’s the best we’ve got.

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.
