The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the surf outlook for Campeche. I gotta be straight with you – the next 16 days are a tough stretch for this spot. We’re looking at a long, quiet run with hardly any real swell to get excited about.
From now through the end of July, it’s a real flat spell. The first two weeks are dominated by tiny, weak swell. We’re talking about waves mostly under 2 ft, with the combined energy reading just single or low double digits – that’s nothing. The wind is often cross-off or light, so the water will look clean, but there’s just no push. A few days around the 22nd and 23rd see a little bump to 4 ft or 5 ft, but it’s short-period windswell from the SSE, with a period of just 7 or 8 seconds. That kind of energy (167 to 238) is still weak and won’t produce any real shape. The wind is cross-on, so it’ll be choppy and messy. Not worth a paddle.
We finally see a tiny pulse of life on the 31st of July. The morning shows 2 ft from the SSE with a period of 9 seconds, combined energy at 120 – that’s a slight improvement. The wind is light and cross-off, so it’ll be clean. The forecaster says it’s surfable but “very ordinary,” and I’d agree. It’s not a standout by any means, but it’s the only window where you might get a knee-high wave with a bit of shape. The afternoons fall off again.
The water temperature is 61°, which is 5° colder than normal for this time of year. That’s a notable chill, so you’ll want a thick suit.
Overall, this is a flat and quiet period. The sandbar at Campeche needs a proper swell from the south to work, and it just isn’t getting it. If you’re desperate, the morning of the 31st of July is your best bet, but don’t expect much. It’s a tough run.
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.
