Egypt Beach surfspot characteristics

More about Egypt Beach surfspot

General: Egypt Beach is located near the town of Scituate, about 15 minutes south of Nantasket Beach, and is another victim of major swell-shadowing thanks to Boston Harbor. It's a flat, sand-bottom stretch of beach that sculpts long but soft waves that are most ideal for longboarding. There are a few scattered rocks along the shorepound, so pay attention. Tides: Incoming Size: Waist-head high Wind: SW Swell: NE Bottom: Sand, scattered rocks Paddling: Pretty mellow in the summer but much worse in the winter when cold water and air necessitate full winter gear. Spot Rating: Not consistent but can be fun on the right swell.

Crowd Factor: Sparse. Local Vibe: Mellow.
