Agami

Agami is a beach and surf spot on Egypt’s Mediterranean coast, just west of Alexandria. It’s known more for wind- and wave-sports than classic big-ocean surfing, but when conditions line up it can offer rideable Mediterranean swells, especially during the cooler months.

What it’s like

• Beach break with sandy bottom
• Waves are usually small to moderate, with the occasional stronger swell
• Best suited for beginner to intermediate surfers on the right day
• Can also be good for kitesurfing and windsurfing, since wind is often a major factor here

Best season

• Autumn through spring is generally the most promising period for waves
• Summer is often flatter and smaller, though conditions can still vary

Conditions to expect

• Water is warm in summer and cooler in winter, so a wetsuit may be needed in colder months
• The spot is influenced by local wind, so surf quality can change quickly
• Because it’s near a major city, it can be crowded at times, especially on good-weather days

Good to know

• Agami is better described as a local surf/watersports area than a world-famous surf destination
• If you’re planning a surf trip, it’s worth checking live swell and wind forecasts before going
