The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Egypt Beach has in store for us.
The good news is, we’ve got a little bump of swell coming in to kick things off, but the overall picture for the next two weeks is unfortunately pretty flat. We’re looking at a long, quiet stretch, especially after the first couple of days.
For Sunday the 6th, we see a bit of a pulse. There’s a 4ft swell coming from the ENE, but it’s a short-period wind swell of only 7 seconds. The combined energy is a moderate 113, so there’s some push there. The problem is the wind is a cross-off from the SSW, which isn't clean and makes it feel messy. The water is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, sitting at about 68°. For a beginner spot, this is a bit of a handful despite the weak size, and the conditions are just ordinary.
Then it drops off a cliff. From Monday the 7th onward, we are in the doldrums. Between Monday morning and the 20th of September, there is effectively nothing rideable. The swell drops to tiny 1ft or less, with combined energy readings that are very weak – between 3 and 47 – basically zero energy. We get a few moments of glassy conditions, like Monday afternoon the 7th and Saturday morning the 12th, but it's just flat. It’s a long, blank run.
The only other flicker comes on the far horizon, Sunday the 21st. The swell bumps up a touch, but at 0.7ft to 1ft and a period of 9-10 seconds, it’s still not enough to get excited about.
For this stretch, unless you’re a beginner who doesn’t mind barely rideable waves and ordinary wind, the only session worth paddling for is the very first one on Sunday afternoon the 6th. After that, the board goes back in the car for a long time. Don't hold your breath for that late-period stuff; it's too far out and too small to rely on.
Stay patient,
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.
Egypt Beach is 2 km (1 miles) from Scituate. If you plan a vacation in Massachusetts, look for hotels and other accommodation in Scituate. Scituate has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
