The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase. Looking at the next 16 days for Egypt Beach, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch. The forecast is pretty much a flat spell with onshore winds messing things up. The water is sitting at 64°F right now, which is a good couple of degrees colder than you’d expect for this time of year, so you’ll be needing that thick wetsuit.
We start off with nada. The first week is a real write-off. From Sunday the 26th right through to the end of July, it’s all tiny, weak, and choppy. Winds are mostly cross-onshore, and the combined swell energy is tiny – mostly well under 100 (like 35-81). You’ll see a bump on Thursday the 30th with a 7ft swell from the ENE, but it’s messy and blown out with a 22 mph wind, so that’s a hard pass. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it’s just wind slop. The energy jumps up to 397-407, but that’s just a big, ugly mess.
That first week is a total gap. There’s nothing to get excited about. We move into the start of August, and it’s still a struggle. Saturday the 1st and Sunday the 2nd are tiny, with the only highlight being a clean window on Sunday morning with a glassy cross-offshore breeze, but it’s only 1ft of swell. Not worth the paddle.
The best of a bad bunch looks like Wednesday the 5th of August. The morning offers a bit of hope. The swell is a tiny 2ft from the East, with a period of 8 seconds and a clean, cross-offshore wind from the SW. The combined energy is still weak (46), but at least it’s clean. It’s the only time in the whole 16 days the forecast even mentions “surfable waves” instead of “poor”. It’s for beginners, and it’s consistent, but it’s a micro-swell. You’ll be fighting for scraps.
Honestly, the whole period is a dud. There’s no standout. The clean conditions on the 5th are the only thing that offers a chance to get wet, but the swell is borderline non-existent. For a spot that’s usually exposed to the NE, the wind is just not playing ball. If you’re desperate, you might get a few knee-high dribbles on Wednesday the 5th morning, but don’t get your hopes up. The pattern is stubbornly poor.
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.
