The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – Egypt Beach is a total bust for the next 16 days. The swell is almost non-existent, and the whole period is a write-off. There’s simply nothing to recommend, no standout days, no hidden gems. It’s a real shame, but that’s how it goes sometimes.
Right from the start, Monday afternoon is flat with a tiny 0.3ft easterly slop and weak energy (3). That sets the tone. The whole first week and into the second is a cruel joke of tiny surf – we’re talking 0.3ft to 1ft for days on end. Even when the wind turns glassy or clean offshore, like on Thursday morning the 13th with that perfect glass-off or Friday the 14th with a fresh offshore, there’s absolutely nothing to surf. The water temp is a mild 71°F, which is pretty normal for the time of year, but that doesn't help.
We finally see a little bump of 2ft around Tuesday the 25th, but that’s from a short-period easterly windswell of just 5 seconds and weak energy (35). That’s not real surf, that’s just bump and chop. For a break that’s consistent by nature, this is a rough run.
If you’re desperate, maybe the glassy Thursday morning the 13th or the glassy Wednesday morning the 19th offer the cleanest water, but with no wave height at all, it’s more of a float than a surf. Honestly, the prevailing onshore and cross-off winds just add to the frustration. For a beach setup like this? Kite surfers might find something to play with on the 25th, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a hard pass.
Hang in there, folks. A blank run like this isn’t normal for the area, so forecasts can change.
Rusty.

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.
