The Lowdown
G’day, it’s Rusty here.
Well, I’ve got to level with you. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a paddle. For a solid stretch there, we’re talking about next to nothing. The swell just isn’t there.
Looking at Egypt Beach, we’ve got a long run of flat, ankle-slapping conditions. From Thursday the 6th all the way through to the 20th, the surf is basically a write-off. Wave heights are hovering around that 0.3ft to 0.7ft mark, with the energy in the water just pathetic. The combined energy readings are mostly single-digit values, which is as weak as it gets. You’d be better off finding a swimming pool.
There is one flicker of life in the middle of it all. On the 13th, Thursday afternoon, there’s a clean little pulse with a very long period swell of 14 seconds. But it’s still only 0.3ft. That’s not surf, that’s a ripple with good intentions.
Then, hold on, things start to shift. On Friday the 21st of August, we finally see something that gets the blood moving. The swell jumps to 3ft with a period of 5 seconds, coming from the NE. The combined energy reading is up to 38, which is still weak, but it’s a start. It’s a short-period windswell, so it won’t be pretty, but it’s more than we’ve seen in a fortnight. The wind is light and cross-on, so it’s not going to be clean perfection, but it’s something.
So, the honest truth is, there’s nothing worth getting excited about for the next two weeks. This looks like one of those blank runs that just happen sometimes. The only real highlight on the horizon is that Friday the 21st, and even that is a marginal call. It’s a beginner-friendly size, but the short period means it’ll be lumpy. Keep an eye on the forecasts, though. Things can change, and with this much nothing, it’s bound to come back around eventually.
Rusty out.

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.
