The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get started. This is Rusty, and I’m looking at the Egypt Beach outlook.
Alright, folks, if you’re hanging out for waves at Egypt Beach, you’re going to be waiting a good long while. The outlook is pretty quiet for quite a stretch. We’re looking at a long gap here with hardly anything to get excited about. From now, right through most of the forecast, it’s flat. Seriously flat. We’ve got days and days of tiny, poor surf – nothing you’d even bother waxing up for. This kind of blank run is pretty normal for the area, so don’t pull your hair out.
The first real chance of anything surfable doesn’t show up until Monday, August 17th. That morning, we might see some small, weak swell push in – around 3.9ft from the north, but it’s got a very short period and the energy is weak (70). The afternoon is where it gets a little more interesting. That same day, Monday afternoon, the swell picks up a bit to 4.6ft from the north-northeast, and the energy jumps up to a moderate 264. The wind goes clean and offshore from the west-northwest, which is a major positive. The conditions should be clean, making it the best of what’s on offer. But even then, it’s not a standout classic.
After that little Monday window, it drops right back down to tiny, poor surf for another week. We’re talking ankle-snappers and flat spells. There’s another little blip on Wednesday, August 26th – a morning with a 3.6ft swell from the north-northeast, but the period is short and the energy is still weak (76). The wind is offshore from the north-northwest, so conditions will be clean. It’s surfable, but nothing to write home about.
The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so you won’t need a thick steamer unless you run cold.
So, to sum it up: the one true standout window is the afternoon of Monday, August 17th. It’s not huge, but it’ll be the cleanest and most energetic of the whole 16-day stretch. Everything else is a long, flat wait. Hang in there, or find something else to do for a while.

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.
