The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s headed our way.
Honestly, I’ve gotta tell you straight up – this is a tough stretch. For the next 16 days, there’s nothing that really gets the heart pumping. We’ve got a long, quiet spell on our hands, and it’s going to be a real test of patience.
We start off with Egypt Beach on Saturday the 18th of July. The water’s sitting at 67°, which is pretty average for this time of year. You’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the S, but it’s only pushing a 4-second period, so there’s no power behind it. The combined energy is a measly 17 – that’s weak. To make matters worse, the wind is an 19 mph cross-off from the SSW. It’s clean, but the swell is just too small and weak to bother with. The next few days are a washout. Sunday the 19th through to Tuesday the 21st, we’re seeing barely a ripple – 0.3ft of swell, if you can even call it that. There’s a moment of glass on Monday morning, but with 0.3ft on offer, you’re better off with a flat rock.
The middle of the week sees a tiny bump. Wednesday the 22nd, we get a 3ft swell from the ESE with a 6-second period, and the energy climbs to 62 (still weak). The wind is a cross-off from the SSW, keeping it clean. On Thursday the 23rd, it drops to 2ft, but the wind swings onshore, bringing in some chop. This pattern of small, short-period, onshore-affected surf continues right through the end of July. By Monday the 28th of July, the swell finally pushes up to 5ft to 5ft from the ENE with a 6-second period. The energy jumps to 164 (moderate) on Tuesday afternoon. But the wind is cross-onshore at 16 mph, making it a choppy, lumpy mess. That’s a size that’s getting too big for beginners, and the wind is just ruining any chance of a decent wave. It’s the kind of day that looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.
The last few days of the outlook into early August are more of the same – small, weak, and mostly onshore. There’s a glassy morning on Sunday the 2nd of August, but with only 1ft of swell, it’s a flat spell. So, the bottom line is: there’s no standout session here. The best we get is a fleeting, clean moment with small swell, but nothing worth chasing. The whole 16-day window is a gap. It’s a blank run, and for this area, that’s not unusual. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d hang the board up.
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.
