The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this is a tough watch. Looking at the whole 16-day window for Egypt Beach, and I’m struggling to find a single session that’s worth paddling out for. The first solid recommendation doesn't appear until the 12th of August, and even that one is a borderline call. From the start of the period on the 29th of July, we’re looking at a solid two-week stretch of mostly flat, onshore, or just plain messy conditions. It’s a real dry spell.
The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is a bit colder than what you’d usually expect for this time of year, so you’ll feel that little chill.
We finally get a glimmer of something on Wednesday the 12th of August. The wind swings offshore out of the SSW on the afternoon with a moderate breeze, cleaning things up. The swell is a modest 2ft from the East, but the period jumps to a serious 12 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell, and the combined energy hits 207 (moderate wave energy). The waves will have some real shape and power, but the size is small. It’s a marginal call, but for a spot that’s been flat for two weeks, it’s the only game in town. The long period will mean good lines, but it might be a bit fat on the bank.
Honestly, there’s nothing else to get excited about. The rest of the month is a write-off. You’d be better off checking the forecast again in a few days, because it can’t stay this poor forever.
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.
