The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get this straight. The surf forecast for the next couple of weeks is looking pretty bleak. There’s nothing on the table that’s worth getting too worked up about, and we’ve got a long stretch of tiny, weak waves ahead. Honestly, the first real chance of anything is so far out it’s hard to get excited.
Right now, and for the next week and a half, we’re looking at ankle-biters. The swell energy is just pitiful, with readings mostly in the single digits and teens. It’s the kind of surf where you’d be fighting for a wave that barely has enough push to get you to shore. The water temp is 69°F, which is spot on for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a thick suit.
The first few days are flat out poor. Sunday and Monday are tiny, with a messy 0.3ft of swell. The wind is up and down, but it doesn’t matter, there’s no power in the water. Tuesday morning there’s a bit of glass, but it’s still just 0.7ft and a 4-second period. It’s a lake, not a surf.
We’ve got a long gap here with zero surf on offer. It’s not until the 17th that we see even a whisper of something, with 2ft forecast, but it’s cross-shore and weak. The energy is still low, only 12 on the combined scale. Then the 18th and 19th show a little more life, with the swell picking up to 1ft and a period of 12 seconds, but the energy is still weak, sitting in the 20s and 30s. It’s clean some of the time, but it’s not going to be worth the paddle.
The only time this spot even looks vaguely interesting is on the 24th. There’s a 1ft swell with a 7-second period, and the morning is glassy. The energy reading jumps to 34, which is the best we’ve seen, but it’s still marginal. It’s a last-day flicker of hope in an otherwise dead window.
Look, Egypt Beach is a consistent spot, but even consistent spots have their off seasons. This is shaping up to be one of those times. We’re looking at two weeks of nothing. The forecasts can change, but right now, you’d be better off finding something else to do with your time. Keep an eye on it, but don’t hold your breath.

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.
