The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the 16-day stretch for Egypt Beach. Gotta be straight with you, it’s a tough read for most of the run. There are long gaps where there’s just nothing doing.

We start off Sunday the 6th with a bit of a tease: a 4ft ENE swell pushing in with some moderate energy (159), but it’s coming in at a short, weak 7-second period and it’s cross-shore. The water is about average for this time of year. It’s a messy, poor setup and not worth paddling out for.

Monday the 7th is a bit of a letdown, but the morning shows a little potential. Swell drops to a tiny 1ft from the ENE with a 9-second period (53 energy). The wind is light cross-offshore, making it clean. It’s small, very ordinary, but if you’re a beginner and just want to bob around, that Monday morning window is your best shot. By afternoon it goes glassy but drops even more.

After that, get ready for a dry spell. From Monday afternoon all the way through the following week and into the weekend, the waves flatline. We’re talking days on end with heights below 2ft and readings in the single digits for energy. It’s a proper dead period. The 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th, even up to the 14th of September – nothing but small, weak, and poor.

We finally see a little pulse come back on Tuesday the 15th. The morning shows a 3ft swell from the NE, period a short 5 seconds, with glassy conditions. Combined energy is weak at 41. It’s still very ordinary, but the glassy wind makes it look a bit nicer. Again, beginner territory at best.

Then it goes quiet again until Thursday the 17th. That’s when we start to see the swell pick back up. Thursday afternoon shows 4ft from the E at 6 seconds, but it’s onshore and messy – energy hits 117 but it’s poor.

The real kicker comes on Friday the 18th. We get a solid pulse: 7ft from the E, 7-second period in the morning, building to 7ft with an 8-second period in the afternoon. The combined energy jumps into the strong category (411 morning, 501 afternoon). This is proper swell size – over 8ft, so this is expert territory. But here’s the heartbreaker: the wind is cross-onshore from the ENE to NE. That’s going to chop it up, and the report calls it poor surf conditions. At a beach break like Egypt Beach, with this much wind and size, it might be more interesting to the kite surfers than to paddle surfers.

Saturday the 19th sees similar size (5ft to 4ft from the E) with good period (9–10 seconds) and energy still in the moderate to strong range (325 to 305), but again that strong cross-onshore wind from the NE is ruining it. It’s choppy.

So, for this entire 16-day window, there is no true standout. The only thing worth a mention is Monday morning the 7th for absolute beginners, and maybe Tuesday morning the 15th for a glassy, tiny session. The bigger swell at the end is too messy to recommend.

Hang in there, it tends not to stay this quiet forever.

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.
