Table - best surf conditions forecast for Dracula over the next 16 days.


Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu for the next few weeks.

First up, we’ve got Dracula coming in as the main event – a heavy, exposed reef break that only the advanced crew should be looking at. Water temp is sitting at 69°, which is just about bang on normal for this time of year, so no nasty surprises when you hit the water.

The first real window of opportunity pops up on Sunday morning, July 12th. It’s glassy, clean, with a light 3ft NW swell and a period of 11 seconds. The energy is moderate (169), and while it’s not huge, that glassy wind and lined-up groundswell will have a few fun ones rolling through. It’s a quiet start, but it’s a good start.

Monday morning, July 13th, is your next look in. Glassy conditions again, with the swell bumping up to 4ft from the NW, period at 9 seconds. The energy is still moderate (235), and it’s clean. Not a standout, but a solid morning session.

Then we hit a bit of a dry spell. From Monday afternoon through to Wednesday evening, the wind goes messy – cross-onshore, cross-shore, choppy. The swell is there but it’s ragged, and honestly, it’s not worth paddling out for. The next real chance rolls in on Thursday morning, July 16th. Glassy again, with 6ft of NNW swell, but the period is short at 7 seconds, so it’s a bit lumpy and weak. Energy is moderate (346). It’s surfable, but not the best shape.

Friday morning, July 17th, is a gem. Flat calm, glassy, 5ft of NNW swell, period 7 seconds. Energy moderate (284). Clean, no wind, you’ll be able to get a few waves without fighting the chop. This is one of the better windows in the first week.

Saturday morning, July 18th, is another glassy one – 6ft, NNW, period 8 seconds, energy moderate (371). Again, clean and workable. The afternoons are always blown out, so mornings are the go.

Now, into the second week, things get bigger but messier. Sunday morning, July 19th, we see 7ft of NNW swell, period 8 seconds, but it’s cross-shore and a bit lumpy. Energy is strong (662). This is getting into expert territory size-wise, but the wind is not your friend. A similar story for Monday and Tuesday mornings – 7ft to 8ft, cross-shore, lumpy. The energy is big (746, 1146), but the quality is average.

The real standout in the entire outlook is Friday morning, July 24th. Finally, we get a proper glassy session with 8ft of NNW swell, period 8 seconds, and the energy is very strong (1026). That’s a big, clean, powerful swell at an advanced reef. For experienced surfers, this is the one to circle. The set waves will be meaty, the reef will be working, and with no wind, it’ll be as good as it gets. After that, the swell hangs around at 8ft to 10ft through Saturday, but the wind is cross-onshore, so it’s not as clean.

By Sunday morning, July 26th, the swell drops back to 5ft, glassy again, but it’s a short period of 6 seconds. It’s a clean, small finish to the run. The final days, July 27th, are mostly blown out or cross-shore, so nothing to write home about.

Bottom line: If you’re an advanced surfer, the Friday morning on July 24th is the one to lock in. For the first week, the early mornings on July 17th and 18th are your best bets. Don’t bother with the afternoons – they’re mostly a write-off.

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.
