The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this forecast for Egypt Beach is a tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of very small, weak surf with hardly any real energy behind it. The first recommendation doesn't even pop up until Wednesday the 22nd, so there's about five days of nothing worthwhile before that.
The only half-decent window kicks off on Wednesday morning the 22nd, when we see a tiny 0.8ft wave out of the ESE, but it’s crossed up by a southerly breeze and there's a risk of thunderstorms. That afternoon looks cleaner with a cross-offshore wind, and the swell energy bumps up to moderate (108), but the wave height is still just 0.8ft – barely enough to get excited about. Thursday the 23rd morning is probably the best of a bad bunch: clean conditions under a light WNW offshore breeze, with a 0.4ft wave out of the ESE. It’s small, but at least it’s rideable. After that, it’s back to tiny, messy, or onshore slop through the rest of the period. The water temp’s around 68°, with a 0.7° anomaly – pretty average for this time of year.
For beginners, there’s nothing too big to worry about, but there’s also nothing to really chase. If you’re desperate, Thursday the 23rd morning is the standout, but keep expectations low. That’s about all she’s giving us.

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.
