About Dracula

Dracula is a reef break at Central Morocco, Morocco. It is rated 5 out of 5 for wave quality and described as very consistent. It works best on a NW swell and a E wind.

The median wave period is 7.2 seconds, and 19% of days reached 10 seconds or more. Period is the interval between waves and the better guide to their power: a longer one carries more energy whatever the height. Ten seconds is the usual line between locally generated wind swell and swell that travelled. Across the last 93 days the median wave height at Dracula was 1.72 m, with the largest fifth of days above 2.06 m. Waves reached a metre or more on 97% of those days. The swell arrived most often from the NNW. These figures describe the recent season at this coordinate, not a long-term average.

The seabed falls away at 0.8% over the first 500 m seaward, reaching 10 m of water 0.5 km out. The beach faces NW, so that is the direction open to incoming swell.

No photographer has published a session at Dracula yet. You can ask to be emailed the first time one does, or, if you shoot Dracula yourself, publish your own sessions here and sell them to the surfers in the frame.
