The Lowdown
Imperial Units
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase – Egypt Beach is flat. Real flat.
Looking over the next 16 days, there’s no sugar-coating it: the surf is a no-show. The combined energy of all swells directed here is poor, maxing out at a reading of 44 (weak energy). We’re dealing with a long stretch of tiny, weak swell that’s offering nothing.
The pattern kicks off this Monday, July 20th, with a clear, glassy morning but only 0.3 feet of easterly energy. It’s a sad start. The next couple of weeks follow the same tune. You’ll see a few afternoons, like Wednesday the 22nd, where the swell bumps up to 3 feet from the SSE, but it’s still all poor surf conditions. The wind shifts around, but with swell this small, it’s irrelevant.
For the absolute best of a bad lot, look to Wednesday morning, July 22nd. The wind turns cross-off from the SW at 16 mph, and the combined energy hits 43 (still weak). The swell is just 1 feet from the ESE with a short period of 5 seconds, so it’s not going to be pretty, but it’ll be the cleanest you’ll find. Thursday morning, July 23rd, is similar with 1 feet from the ESE, but a longer period of 11 seconds and a clean cross-off NW wind at 12 mph. The water temp is about 67°F, which is pretty average for the time of year, so at least the chill won’t get you.
There’s no standout here. We’ve got gaps of days with no real recommendations. The whole run is a washout. For a beginner-friendly spot that’s usually consistent, this is a rough stretch. It’s not normal for the area, but forecasts can always flip.
This setup is so weak it’s not even worth the kite surfers’ time.
Stay patient, folks.

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.
Egypt Beach is 2 km (1 miles) from Scituate. If you plan a vacation in Massachusetts, look for hotels and other accommodation in Scituate. Scituate has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
