Alright, I’m looking at the only break on the cards for the next couple of weeks – Dracula. It’s a reef setup, advanced only, so don’t even think about paddling out there unless you’ve got the skills. The whole run is a bit of a tease.

Right now, through the first week of July, it’s pretty grim. We’ve got small, weak swell – mostly around 2ft to 3ft from the NNW, with periods under 8 seconds. That’s short-period wind swell, and the cross-onshore winds are messing up any chance of a clean wave. Water temp is about 68°F, which is pretty average for this time of year. The combined energy never really gets going, staying in the low double digits (52 – 163), nothing to get excited about. There are even a few glassy mornings around the 6th and 7th of July, but the swell just isn't there to do anything with.

We hit a bit of a lull in the middle of the period, with nothing worth mentioning until the morning of Tuesday, 14th July. That’s the first glimmer – a glassy morning, some clouds, with 5ft of NNW swell at 7 seconds and a combined energy of 224. That’s moderate wave energy. It’s still a short period, but with clean, glassy conditions a reef like Dracula can focus that energy into a decent wave. The wind is offshore from the NW, which is the optimum direction for this spot. It’s clean, but it’s not a huge swell. This is the best of the bunch, but for an advanced spot like this, it’s just a decent day, not a standout.

Then the Thursday 16th run gets messy again with cross-shore winds. The morning of Friday 17th has a glassy start with 3ft, but the energy is weak (104) – really just a very ordinary day.

And then we get a bit of a reward on Sunday, 19th July. Another glassy morning, with the swell building to 6ft from the NNW at 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 301 – that’s strong wave energy. It’s a bit bigger, but the period is still short and the wind is light and offshore from the NW. For Dracula, that’s a proper session. It’s the strongest energy on offer in the whole outlook. The afternoon suffers from a fresh cross-shore, but if you can get out on that Sunday morning, that is your best shot at something special. It’s a long way off, so keep an eye on it, but right now, that’s the one to circle on the calendar.

The rest is a washout. If the swell were any bigger or the wind any stronger, this would be a kite spot, but as it is, it’s just a waiting game for that Sunday morning.

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.
