The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a proper look at Campeche.

The next couple of weeks are a mixed bag for Campeche. We've got a bit of a quiet patch right now, but there's a real standout window that's worth waiting for. The water temp is sitting at 63.7°, which is a bit colder than you'd expect for this time of year, so maybe grab a thicker spring suit.

The best surf on offer is Sunday the 27th and Monday the 28th of September. Sunday morning (27th) sees a bump in the swell to 5.2ft from the SSE, packing moderate energy (354). The wind is light and cross-offshore, keeping it clean. But the real gem is Monday the 28th. The swell settles just a touch to 4.6ft from the SSE, but the period stretches to a very long 13 seconds, giving the waves real grunt and shape. The combined energy jumps up to a strong 683. And the wind? It's a light offshore from the NW. That's a proper recipe for a session – offshore wind on a sandbar with that much groundswell is a treat.

Before that, it's mostly small or messy. Saturday the 27th has a fun little window if you're desperate. Wednesday morning the 16th and Thursday morning the 17th have glassy conditions but the swell is tiny, only around 3ft to 3.6ft. The stretch from the 19th to the 26th of September is largely flat or blown out, with most days having swells under 1.6ft and poor surf conditions. There's a long gap of almost no surfable waves in there.

So, to sum it up: don't bother paddling out much before the last weekend of September. Save the energy for that Monday the 28th. The wind is right, the swell has serious length, and it's going to be clean. It won't be crowded every day, but at a spot like Campeche, crowds can turn up, so get in early. This is a point where the sandbar is fairly consistent, so it should hold the swell well.

That's the call. Keep an eye on the sky and be ready for the 28th.

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.
