The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m giving it to you straight for Egypt Beach over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, it’s a bummer. The whole 16-day stretch is flat and quiet, with almost no real surf worth chasing. The first week and a half is just dead – combined swell energy readings are mostly between 2 and 39, which is basically nothing. You’re looking at a long gap with zero recommendations.
The only flicker of life comes on Saturday August 31st, with a small 2-foot east swell and an 8-second period. Combined energy bumps to 52 – still weak, but it’s the best we get. That Monday morning, the wind is glassy calm, so if you’ve got a longboard and zero expectations, maybe you can get a few ankle-biters. Even then, the report calls it ordinary.
Earlier, around Thursday August 27th and into the 28th, you get a tiny 1-foot east swell with a longer 12-second period and combined energy up to 64. Winds go clean and offshore on the 26th and 27th, but the wave size is just too small to do anything with. For a beginner-friendly spot that usually holds consistency, there’s just no push.
Water temp on the 16th is about 70°F, right around average for this time of year, so at least you won’t be cold while you sit there.
Honestly, cross it off the list for now. Nothing here for paddle surfing. Check back in a few days – forecasts 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.
