The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Truth be told, it’s a pretty bleak run ahead. There’s a long stretch of poor conditions and tiny surf, so don’t get your hopes up. The first notable surf recommendation comes in on the morning of Thursday the 30th of July. Before that, from Tuesday the 28th right through Wednesday the 29th, we’re lookin’ at tiny, choppy junk with no real push—honestly, not worth paddlin’ out. A gap of a couple of days with nothing to get excited about.
Thursday the 30th morning shows a jump in size with swell from the NNE, pulse up around 5 ft, but it’s still messy. The afternoon ramps up further to 7 ft from the NE with a period of just 7 seconds—short period, so won’t hold shape all that well. Wave energy jumps to moderate (413), and the wind is cross-shore and fresh (19 mph), so expect lumpy, cross-chop chaos. That size is a bit much for beginners, and the combo of wind and short period means it’d be better suited for the kite crew than paddle surfers. By Friday the 31st, the swell eases to 5 ft in the morning from the NE (303 energy), still cross-chop with moderate wind, and drops to 4 ft in the afternoon under lighter breeze, but it's cross-onshore.
After Friday, we flatline again. Saturday the 1st of August sees waves barely pushing 1 ft, and from Sunday the 2nd through to Tuesday the 12th of August, it’s small stuff—0.3 ft to 0.7 ft—with only occasional glassy mornings like Monday the 3rd morning (0.3 ft, glassy) and Sunday the 9th morning (1.0 ft, glassy). It’s tiny surf, not enough to ride, but the water is about average for this time of year.
Egypt Beach is the only break on the cards here. It’s a beginner-friendly, consistent spot exposed to NE swell, and optimum swell is from the NE. The crowds are sometimes an issue. Over this whole 16-day window, there is really no standout day. The only window that’s even surfable is Thursday the 30th of July morning to Friday the 31st of July afternoon, but at best you’re gettin’ short period, choppy conditions. Best on offer would be Friday the 31st of July afternoon—swell 4 ft from the NE, energy is moderate (93), and wind is light (6 mph) cross-onshore. It’s not clean, but it’s the most manageable of a bad lot.
Not much to cheer about this time. Keep an eye on the forecasts—things can change.

Information about the Egypt Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Egypt Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Egypt Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Egypt Beach 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 (Egypt Beach) 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 Egypt Beach 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.
