The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be honest about what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got Egypt Beach on the radar, and I’m looking at a long stretch of very quiet water. The finder is pretty clear: through the entire 16-day window, the combined wave energy barely gets out of double digits, and the score never climbs above a zero. That’s a tough run.
The forecast starts with a tiny bit of movement on Tuesday, August 4th. Morning shows a small 1.0ft swell from the ESE with a period of 8 seconds, and a light offshore breeze from the WNW makes it look clean. The combined energy is only 18, so it’s weak, but it’s the most we’ll see for a while. By the afternoon, the wind swings onshore and the swell drops further. Honestly, it’s not worth paddling out for.
From Wednesday, August 5th, right through to the end of the outlook on August 19th, the swell is a sad story. We’re looking at heights mostly around 0.3ft to 0.7ft, with periods all over the place but no real power. The combined energy sits in the single digits or low teens – 7, 6, 4, 3... you get the picture. There are a few moments of glassy conditions, like the morning of Thursday, August 14th, with a glassy ENE breeze, but the swell is still a pathetic 0.3ft. It’s flat, folks.
The water temperature is running about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The bottom line is that there isn’t a single standout session in this whole 16-day window. The best of a bad bunch is probably that Tuesday morning, August 4th, with the 1.0ft swell and offshore wind, but even that is a “maybe if you’re desperate” kind of wave. The consistent lack of any decent energy tells me this is a normal flat spell for the area. It’s the kind of run where you just leave the board in the car and go have a coffee. Don’t hold your breath for a change; the forecast shows it staying poor right through.
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.
