The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this stretch is a tough one for Egypt Beach. We’re looking at a long, lean spell ahead.
Right off the bat, the first few days are a write-off. The swell is tiny, barely a ripple, and the wind is all over the place. We’re talking about a solid week of flat, messy conditions with nothing worth paddling out for. The water’s sitting at 69°F which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only upside.
The first real glimmer of anything happens on Monday, the 7th of September. The morning shows a pulse of 2ft swell from the ENE, and we’ve got a gentle offshore wind from the WSW. That’s clean, but the energy is weak (67). It’s surfable, but just barely. By the afternoon, the swell bumps up to 3ft with a bit more period (9 seconds) and the energy hits moderate (116), but the wind shifts to cross-off. It’s promising for a few waves, but nothing to get excited about.
After that, the following week is a real bummer. We get a spike of 4ft from the NE on Sunday, the 6th, but with a short period and choppy cross-onshore wind, it’s just a messy, blown-out wall. The energy is moderate (174), but the quality is poor. For the rest of the 16-day window, it’s mostly tiny swell and unfriendly winds. There’s a brief moment on the 14th of September with a clean 2ft, but it’s weak.
Honestly, there are no standout days here. If you’re desperate, the best window is the morning of the 7th of September for a clean but small session. Everything else is a wait-and-see. For the majority of the period, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, given the wind and lack of wave quality.
Keep your eyes peeled for a change in the forecast, but for now, it’s a quiet one.
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.
