The Lowdown
Right, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up. To be honest, it’s a pretty bleak run for the next couple of weeks. The water temp is sitting at 69°, which is about 2° warmer than usual for this time of year – nothing wild, just a little on the warm side.
We kick off, well, we don’t really kick off. There’s nothing worth paddling out for from the start. We’re looking at a solid gap with no recommendations all the way through. It’s tiny, it’s messy, and the wind is all over the shop.
The only time the energy even starts to wake up is on Saturday the 5th of September in the morning at Egypt Beach. We get a little 3ft swell out of the ENE with a period of 8 seconds, and the wind goes light and cross-off, cleaning things up nicely. The energy is still on the weaker side though (94). It’s just surfable, nothing to get excited about. Then on Monday the 7th of September in the morning, we get a 3ft wave out of the E, period of 7 seconds, with glassy conditions. The energy picks up a bit (177), and it’s clean. That’s the best we’ve got in the window. It’s not pumping, but if you’re desperate for a glide, that Monday morning session is your only real shot at something clean and rideable. After that, it’s back to small, onshore junk.
Honestly, there’s nothing here that stands out as a proper standout. If you’re a beginner, those smaller, clean days might be alright, but for anyone else, it’s a long wait for not much reward. Crowds are possible at Egypt Beach, but with surf this ordinary, it’ll probably be quiet.
Stay patient, mate. The forecasts can always change.
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.
