Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into the forecast. It’s gonna be a slow start, so don't rush out, but the second week has some real promise if you can hang tight.
Right off the bat, the first few days are pretty dead. Dracula is seeing tiny, weak surf—just knee-high slop—with poor quality. We're looking at swell heights from 2 ft to 3 ft, mostly from the NNW, with periods so short they’ve got no power. Winds are messy and cross-shore, so don't expect any waves worth paddling for. There’s a proper dry spell from Tuesday the 7th through to about Sunday the 12th. The water temp is sitting about normal for this time of year, nothing to write home about.
Things finally start to show a pulse from Monday the 13th. Swell builds a bit, with a moderate combined energy reading of 226, and Dracula starts seeing sets around 4 ft from the NW. The period is still a bit short though, and the wind is light and cross-on, so it’s still only marginal.
Now, here is the real story. If you can wait, the standout window is from Thursday the 16th through to Monday the 20th. The swell jumps up strong, with Dracula seeing waves from 6 ft to 8 ft out of the NNW. The energy gets into the strong category, up to 1045. This is solid groundswell, but the period is around 7-8 seconds, so it’s not that long, drawn-out stuff. The absolute winners are the mornings. On Thursday the 16th morning, it is dead glassy with 6 ft waves—that will be clean as a whistle. Then again on Sunday the 19th and Monday the 20th mornings, you have glassy conditions with solid 7 ft sets. Those are the absolute best of the forecast. Just remember, when the swell hits 8 ft on Sunday afternoon, that’s experts only, and the wind gets ugly. But those early glassy windows? That’s the ticket. This is a reef break that is very consistent, so it’ll be working, but be ready for a crowd, as it can get busy at times.
So, dig in for the flat start, then be on it for those glassy mornings from the 16th. That’s the move.

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.
