The Lowdown
Alright, folks, let's talk Egypt Beach over the next couple of weeks. I'll be honest, it's looking like a real quiet stretch. For the first week and a half, there's basically nothing doing. It's a long, frustrating gap of flatness. The water temp is about 68°, which is pretty average for the season.
From Friday the 17th all the way through the morning of Wednesday the 30th of July, it's all poor surf conditions. Swell heights are tiny, mostly under a foot and a half, with wave energy barely registering. Even when the wind is clean or glassy, there's no wave to surf. It's a big ol' blank run.
There's a little flicker of life on the afternoon of Thursday the 30th of July. Glassy conditions with about 3ft of east swell, but the period is a short 4 seconds. Wave energy is 39, still weak, and the waves will be soft and sloppy.
Your best and really only bet is Friday the 31st of July. We'll see a NNE swell push through at about 3ft in the morning with a 5-second period. The wind is offshore from the WNW at 6 mph, giving us clean waves. The combined energy hits 80, which is still on the weak side but a big improvement. The afternoon is similar with a cross-off breeze. It's surfable, but nothing special. It's a beach break, so expect short, fat waves.
For the whole 16 days, there's no real standout. If you're keen for a paddle and some clean knee-to-waist high waves, the 31st is your only real option.

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.
