The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Campeche’s got cookin’ for us over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with ya: it’s a tough start. We’re looking at a whole lot of flat, messy days before anything worth paddling out for shows up.
For the first week, from the 28th of August right through until the 4th of September, it’s pretty grim. Tiny little dribbles of swell, mostly under 3 feet, with a lot of cross-onshore wind messing things up. The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is about average for this time of year. Honestly, you’re better off leaving the board in the shed.
The real dry spell hits from the 1st to the 4th of September – just a big ol’ gap with barely a ripple. The combined wave energy is either zero or way down in the weak teens and twenties (like 9 to 37), confirming it's a desert out there.
Now, things finally start to look a little more interesting around the 5th of September. Saturday morning has a pulse of 7 feet swell out of the S, packing some moderate energy (889). The wind is light from the N, giving us clean conditions. This is the first real chance for a surf, but that 7 feet is getting into the bigger range, so it’s one for the more experienced crew. The wind is good, though, so it should offer some decent shape.
Then, the standout of the whole forecast – you gotta circle Monday, the 7th of September. We’ve got a nice clean 5 feet swell out of the SE, and here’s the kicker: a 14-second period. That’s groundswell, long-period energy that’ll wrap into Campeche nicely. The combined energy is strong at 961, so there’s plenty of push. The wind is light offshore from the N, making for clean, lined-up waves. This is easily the best on offer, no contest. It’s a sandbar set-up, and with that longer period, look for the peak to hold shape.
The 11th of September also shows some serious size – 8 feet out of the SE with a 14-second period, and a massive combined energy of 1914 – but that’s big, strong, and with cross-shore wind. That’s expert territory for sure, and the chop will make it tricky.
So, bottom line: the first week is a write-off. Hang tight. The real window is the morning of the 5th for a bigger swell, and definitely the 7th for the cleanest, most promising surf of the whole run.
Stay frothy.

Information about the Campeche Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Campeche provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Campeche can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Campeche 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 (Campeche) 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 Campeche 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.
