The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this is a tough run of surf ahead. I’ve combed through the data for Egypt Beach, and for the entire 16-day window, the swell is just not showing up. It’s a real bummer when the ocean goes flat like this, but it happens.

The first recommendation doesn’t come until the very end of the first week, and even then it’s barely a whisper. For the first ten days, from August 4th right through to the morning of the 14th, the swell is almost non-existent. We’re talking wave heights of 0.3ft to 0.7ft, with periods mostly under 9 seconds. The combined energy rarely breaks double digits, sitting at a measly 9 at its best. That’s flat, dead flat. There’s nothing to ride.

Then, on the morning of Thursday, August 14th, we get a tiny flicker of hope. A small groundswell pushes in from the East, with a period of 13 seconds. That’s a long period for such a tiny wave, which means it’s got some older energy behind it, but the height is still only 0.3ft. The combined energy is only 5. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNW, which would keep things clean, but you’d be hard-pressed to even get wet.

The water temperature at Egypt Beach is sitting at 65°F, which is a good 4°F colder than average for this time of year. That’s a notable chill, so a good 4/3 wetsuit is going to be your best friend if you’re even thinking of paddling out.

Honestly, for the first week and a half, this is a write-off. The setup is so flat that it’s far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, if the wind ever picks up. The last few days, from the 17th to the 19th, we get some onshore winds and rain, but the swell is still 0.3ft. It’s not going to change.

This is one of those blank runs that’s pretty normal for the area when the swell windows are shut. Don’t lose hope, though. The forecast can always change, and it tends not to stay this poor for too long.

Stay tuned, and keep your eyes on the horizon.

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.
