The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here again, giving it to you in feet and miles per hour.
Let’s be real – the next 16 days are pretty dead for waves around here. There’s a long stretch of flatness at the beginning, with nothing worth paddling out for until the second week. The swell just isn’t showing up, and the energy is weak for days. It’s that kind of quiet spell that happens now and then, but forecasts can always change.
The one and only highlight lands right at the end of the forecast. On Friday, August 21st, the morning at Egypt Beach is the best we’ll see. We’ve got a tiny 1-foot swell from the ESE with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is weak, just 18. The real score is the wind: a clean offshore from the WSW at 6 mph, glassing up the surface. This spot is consistent and good for beginners. The water’s running a bit colder than usual for this time of year, about 65°. It’s not a day for power, but for a clean little cruise, it’s the only game in town.
The rest of the window is flat or close to it. There’s a small bump on August 14th with a 3-foot, 4-second windswell from the NNE, but it’s poor quality and too short-period to be fun. On August 19th, a 2-foot south swell with clean offshore winds shows up, but it’s barely a ripple. Nothing to get excited about.
So, save your energy for that Friday the 21st morning if you want a clean, small-wave session. Otherwise, be patient and keep an eye on the forecast.
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.
