The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s check what’s cooking at Dracula. It’s a reef break, exposed to the west, and needs a solid NW swell to work. This wave is for advanced surfers only and it’s very consistent, so you know what you’re getting into. The water temp is about normal for the season, nothing unusual.
For the next week and a half, it’s mostly average to poor – a few windows but nothing that gets the heart racing. The one true standout is way out on Tuesday the 22nd of September, and it’s a big one. That morning looks like the best of the whole 16 days: clean 2yd (1.9m) of NW swell, combined energy of 1147, which is a serious number. That kind of power is for experienced folks only. The wind is light and off the NNE, so the surface is buttery. Crowds are only sometimes an issue, so you might have some clean waves to yourself. Circle that date.
Before that, a lot of junk. Thursday the 10th is a write-off with a messy cross-shore wind at 22 mph and lumpy 3yd (2.5m) surf. Friday the 11th starts okay – glassy conditions on a clean 2yd (1.7m) NNW swell at 8 seconds. That morning is rideable, but it falls apart in the afternoon. Saturday the 12th is marginal, full of chop and questionable tide.
There’s a long dry spell from Sunday the 13th right through to Monday the 21st. Mostly small waves under 2yd (1.5m), or ruined by onshore and cross-shore winds. Monday the 14th has a brief glassy moment on a tiny 0.7yd (0.6m) 13-second NW groundswell, but it’s too small to bother with.
Then Tuesday the 22nd delivers. As I said, 2yd (1.9m), clean, and packing a punch. That afternoon it jumps to 3yd (3.0m) but goes onshore, so hit the morning. Wednesday the 23rd is blown out again – the window is tight.
Looking further ahead to Thursday the 24th, we get another glassy morning with a clean 2yd (1.7m) NW swell at 8 seconds and solid energy (513). That’s a nice, smaller option if the big Tuesday is too heavy for you.
That’s your report. The 22nd is the one to chase. Rusty out.

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.
