The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for our stretch of beach.
First off, I gotta be straight with ya – the next week or so is looking pretty grim. We've got a real flat spell coming. It's gonna be a tough run for a while.
The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year.
Looking at the whole 16-day run, it's a long, slow burn. For the first four days, from Tuesday the 15th through to Friday the 18th, the swell is tiny and the energy is weak (around 110 to 155). The wind is mostly cross-on or just messy, so the surf is gonna be poor and choppy. You'll see the odd tiny wave up to 3 ft, but that's about it.
Then we hit a major lull. From Saturday the 19th of September right through until Monday the 28th, it's pretty much flat. There’s a ten-day gap there where there's nothing worth paddling out for – we're talking swell heights of 0.3 ft to 2 ft at best, with very weak energy (as low as 2). The windows with clean glassy conditions or light offshores on the 24th and 25th of September are there, but with almost no swell, it’s just a flat, smooth ocean.
Now, the only real glimmer of hope comes right at the end of the forecast. On Monday the 28th of September, we start seeing some proper energy building – 290 and then 557. That's a moderate to strong pulse of energy. The swell starts to fill in from the SSE at 4 ft to 4 ft, and the period stretches out. By Tuesday the 29th of September, we've got clean conditions with a cross-off wind and a long-period SSE swell (14 seconds) running at 4 ft. The combined energy is 431, which is a solid, powerful groundswell. The waves will have good shape and plenty of push, but that long period (over 15 seconds is very long) can make beach breaks a bit tricky. For Campeche (sandbar) , this should actually be a good setup. The swell direction from the SSE lines up well, and with the clean, cross-off breeze, it’ll be very surfable. Be aware, this spot can get crowded often, so get out there early.
To sum it up, there’s nothing on offer until Tuesday the 29th of September. That Tuesday morning is the standout. If you can wait, that’s your session. The rest of the time? Leave the board at home.

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.
