The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee and listen up. I’m looking at the charts for Egypt Beach, and to be honest, it’s a pretty quiet stretch ahead. The water is sitting at 69°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so that’s a nice little bonus if you’re paddling out.
Right now, and for the first few days, it’s almost flat. We’re talking tiny 0.7 ft to 2 ft slop with very weak energy. The wind is a mix of onshore and cross-shore, and the reports are all saying “poor.” There’s just nothing to get excited about here. It’s a beginner-friendly beach break, but even a beginner would be bored.
We do get a small pulse of energy on Saturday the 5th, with a 3 ft to 4 ft swell from the NE, but the wind is up around 16 mph and cross-on, making it choppy. Not worth the drive.
The first real standout, and I mean the only one that gets my heart rate up, shows up on Sunday the 6th. We’ve got a 5 ft swell from the NE pushing moderate energy, but the wind is a moderate cross-shore at 16 mph. It’s still a bit messy, and the report says “poor surf conditions.” It’s bigger, but it’s not clean. That’s a tough one.
Now, look, later on Thursday the 10th, we see a 7 ft spike from the ENE with strong energy and clean offshore winds. That’s a big number, but at 7 ft, this is expert-only territory at a beach break, and it’s still just a “marginal” call. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit crumbly and hard to handle. Only for the pros who know the bank.
The last little flicker of hope is on the 12th and 13th, with a clean 3 ft to 5 ft easterly swell. The winds are light and glassy or offshore, which is perfect for clean waves. The energy is moderate, and the period is a weak 6 seconds, so it’s not going to be a world-beater, but for a beginner or someone just wanting a quiet paddle, those mornings will be the most fun you’ll have in this 16-day window.
Honestly, this is a long dry spell. There’s a huge gap of poor conditions from the start until the 6th, and then another lull. The 12th and 13th are your best bet, but don’t expect to be blown away.

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.
