The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – looking at this 16-day window for our region, it’s a bit of a flat spell. There's a massive gap where there’s just nothing worth paddling out for, so we're looking at a long stretch with no real recommendations until the very end of the run.
Let’s break it down. The week starts off with a tiny window on Monday the 17th. Agami is seeing a small 3ft swell from the NNW with a short 8-second period. The energy is weak (117), and the wind is blowing onshore at 6 mph. It’s marginal at best. The water’s sitting at 83°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Then from Monday afternoon right through to Saturday the 30th of August, it’s a total write-off. We're talking a solid 12-day gap where the conditions are consistently poor – tiny swell, rubbish period, and onshore winds. You’d be wasting your time.
Now, there is a pulse that shows up on Sunday the 30th of August. The swell bumps up to 7ft from the NNW, with the energy jumping to a strong (551). But here’s the kicker – it’s cross-onshore at 12 mph, making it choppy. The period is only 8 seconds, so it’s just a messy windswell. This size (7ft) is getting into the territory where it’s only really for experienced surfers. For a beginner spot like Agami that rarely breaks, this is not the setup you want. The conditions are too rough for a quality paddle session.
Honestly, the only thing that even catches my eye is that Sunday the 30th, but the onshore wind kills it. The rest of the forecast is a dud. We'll just have to wait and see if the forecasts change, because it can't stay this flat forever.
Rusty.

Information about the Agami Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Agami provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Agami can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Agami 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 (Agami) 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 Agami 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.
Agami is 16 km (10 miles) from the city of Alexandria. If you plan a holiday in Mediterranean Coast -Egypt, look for hotels and other accommodation in Alexandria. Alexandria has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
