Dracula's

Taghazout, Morocco
🪸Sharp reef🦔Urchins

Dracula's is named for the jagged, fang-like rocks that guard this remote Moroccan reef break north of Taghazout. The wave is a true A-frame, offering hollow lefts and fast, walling rights that break over a shallow reef. The setting is pristine and uncrowded, with the vampire-tooth rocks adding an eerie beauty to the lineup. Best on medium swells with east winds.
