The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next stretch.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it's a slow start. The first week and a half is looking pretty flat for Egypt Beach. We're talking about a solid 10 days of small, weak dribble with combined energies barely scraping into double digits (like 11, 10, 6). It's a tough run. The water temp is sitting right about average for this time of year, so nothing wild there. Just a lot of small, clean-looking slop, but nothing you'd really paddle out for.
Things are dead quiet until we hit the 12th of August. That Wednesday afternoon we finally see a pulse, with a tiny 2ft swell from the NE and a bit of energy (40). It's surfable, but it's ordinary. The wind is light and cross-off which keeps it clean, but it's not exactly gonna light the world on fire.
Then, hold onto your boardies, because the 15th of August is where it gets interesting. Saturday morning we see a big jump: a 8ft swell from the ENE, with a period of 8 seconds and a combined energy of 803. That's a solid, moderate amount of energy. But the wind is light and cross-shore, which is alright, but it's not clean. The swell is getting big. By Saturday afternoon, the forecast is calling for a 15ft swell from the NE with a period of 11 seconds and a massive energy of 4655. That's a beast. The wind is light and onshore, which is a shame, but the real issue is that it's predicted to be too big for this break. The warning is clear: this is for experts only, and even then, it might be pushing it. The swell is too big for the setup.
Sunday the 16th rolls in with a 12ft swell from the NE, still pumping energy (2455) and a light cross-onshore breeze. Again, the warning is the same: this swell is too big for Egypt Beach.
So, the big picture: a long, flat start, then a sudden, massive spike that's too big for the spot. There's no real standout session here that I can confidently recommend for a good time. That Saturday the 15th swell is a monster, but it's a safety issue, not a surfer's dream. For the first week, honestly, keep the board in the car and maybe just go for a swim. The forecast could change, but as it stands, this is a tough outlook.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
