The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s chew the fat on what’s on offer at Campeche for the next couple weeks.
Right now we’re in a dead zone, mate. From August 31st all the way through to September 5th, there’s barely a ripple worth paddlin’ for. Tiny scraps of S swell, but the wave energy is weak (57 to 81), and the periods are short, under 8 seconds. Winds are mostly cross-onshore, so it’s choppy and messy. Nothin’ doin’.
Now, Sunday the 6th of September morning – that’s when things wake up. A solid S swell pushes up to 10ft, with moderate energy (2028), but the period is only 10 seconds – not a proper long-period groundswell. Wind’s light cross-onshore from the south at 6 mph, so it’s a bit bumpy. At 10ft, Campeche (a sandbar) is gettin’ hefty – that’s expert only, mate. And the crowd factor? It’s often packed, so you’ll be competin’ for the peaks.
The real standout, the one I’d circle on the calendar, is Tuesday the 8th. That morning, we’ve got a clean 4ft SE swell with an 11-second period – that’s a proper groundswell – and a light cross-offshore breeze from the NNE at 6 mph. The wave energy is moderate at 438, and it’s comin’ from the optimum direction. The wind is clean, the waves will have shape and power – that’s the best session of the outlook. Good for intermediate and above.
Wednesday the 9th morning is also decent: 4ft SE swell, 10-second period, clean cross-offshore wind from the NNW. Not as strong as Tuesday but still fun, with moderate energy (271). Thursday the 10th is smaller, 2ft and ordinary – only if you’re keen.
After that, from the 11th on, it fades fast. Tiny swells, weak energy, cross-onshore winds, and by the 14th and 15th we’re back to near-flat with glassy mornings but barely any waves. The 15th has a glassy morning with 2ft SE swell and 79 energy – glassy but tiny.
Water temp’s about average for the time of year.
So, here’s the call: skip the first week. Sunday the 6th is big and powerful but only for experts. The real gem is Tuesday the 8th morning – clean, head-high SE groundswell with offshore winds. That’s your day.
Rusty.

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.
