The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get stuck into what’s on offer. We’re looking at a 16-day window that starts with a whole lot of nothing. The surf is basically non-existent for the first week and a half, with only tiny, weak, and messy wind-swell showing up. The combined energy is low for most of it, and the period is short, so there’s no push or shape. The wind is onshore or cross-shore most days, chopping up that already poor quality. On a few afternoons, like the 2nd and 3rd of August, we do get a bit of clean-looking surface from a cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is still tiny (0.7 ft – 3 ft) with no energy. It’s a long, flat, frustrating stretch.
Then, finally, on the last day of the forecast, Tuesday the 11th of August, we get a little pulse of life. The morning at Egypt Beach sees a slight bump in size to 2 ft from the east, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is still low and the wind is a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the SSW, cleaning it up. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no wetsuit drama. It’s surfable, just ordinary and small. The break is a consistent, exposed beginner spot, so it’s a good place for a longboard or a foiler to scratch around, but don't expect any kind of drop. Crowds are possible here.
So, the honest truth? There’s no standout session in this 16-day run. The one real highlight is that Tuesday the 11th, simply because it’s the only time the surf is even worth mentioning. If you’re desperate for a paddle, that’s your window. Otherwise, it’s a long dry spell. Keep an eye on the forecasts, though—it can’t stay this flat forever.
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.
