The Lowdown
Alright, let's have a look, yeah?
The next couple weeks are looking like a real waiting game for us. The start of the period is just a write-off for surf. It's small, weak, and choppy, with a cross-onshore wind messing everything up. There's no punch to anything, the energy is weak, and it's just not worth your time. You'll be standing there watching whitecaps, not waves.
There is a little window on the morning of the 17th where the wind goes glassy, which is a big deal. The swell’s still small, around 4 feet, from the SSE, but at least it’ll be clean. It’s the only surfable option for a while, but keep your expectations low. It's better than nothing, but only just.
From there it’s more of the same – small, weak, and uninviting. We see some cleaner conditions with offshore winds, but the swell just isn't there. It’s a lot of paddling for ankle-biters.
Now, here’s the big news. We’ve got a serious swell forecast for the 23rd. The energy jumps way up, but it’s going to arrive with a messy onshore wind and it’s going to be well overhead at over 11 feet. That’s a stormy, junky mess, and it’s more of a kitesurfing day than a surfing one.
The one to get excited about, the one that’s worth the wait, is the morning of September 24th. That’s when the stars finally align. We’re looking at a strong, long-period groundswell from the SSE with a 17-second period and a solid 8-foot face. The energy will be very strong, and the wind is forecast to be a clean, cross-offshore breeze. This is big, powerful surf, so it’s only for the experts, but Campeche should be firing. The 25th continues that trend, with a slightly smaller but still substantial 6-7 foot swell and clean conditions. It’s a promising forecast, but being that far out, you gotta treat it with a bit of caution.
The surf fades out after that. The water is running at 63°F, which is a touch colder than normal for this time of year, so don't forget the booties.
So, here’s the plan: wait. The 17th is your only early cast. The real day to circle on the calendar is the 24th and the 25th. That’s the one with the real potential.

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.
Campeche is 13 km (8 miles) from Florianopolis. If you plan a holiday in Florianópolis, look for hotels and other accommodation in Florianopolis. Florianopolis has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
