The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got one spot to focus on: Campeche (sandbar).
The water temperature here is sittin’ at 66°F, which is about average for this time of year, so nothin’ weird goin’ on with the temp.
We’re startin’ off a bit rough. Monday the 10th of August is pretty much a write-off – we’ve got a 7ft southerly swell rollin’ in, and while that’s got some serious grunt (combined energy is 1882, which is strong), the wind is a cross-onshore mess at 12 to 16 mph, and the report says marginal to poor. Not your day unless you’re just wantin’ to get thrashed.
But then, Tuesday the 11th? That’s where it gets interestin’. The swell drops to a more manageable 5ft from the SSE, period a nice 12 seconds, and the wind goes glassy. True glass. Mornin’ and afternoon both look clean. Combined energy is still solid at 628. This is clean, punchy surf. Not too big, not too small.
Wednesday the 12th and Thursday the 13th keep the good run goin’. Wednesday has clean, cross-off conditions with 4-4ft SSE swell. Thursday morning the 13th is the standout: 4ft from the SSE, longer 14-second period, glassy offshores. Combined energy jumps to 691. This is the pick of the bunch – clean, shapely, and consistent.
Friday the 14th stays good with 3-4ft and light offshores. Saturday the 15th gets a bit smaller and more ordinary, and by Sunday the 16th the swell really fades out, droppin’ to 2ft or less. After that, we go through a long, flat stretch.
There’s a dry spell from about the 17th right through to the 23rd where the swell is tiny and winds are messy or weak. A few days in there are clean but with no real wave energy (combined energy down in the 20s and 30s). Not worth paddlin’ out for.
Things finally look like they might re-awaken around Monday the 24th of August. A new pulse of southerly swell comes through at 6ft, period short at 8 seconds, but the wind is light and cross-off, keepin’ it clean. Combined energy is 515 – moderate but looks surfable. Tuesday the 25th hangs in there too with 4ft and a longer 13-second period, still clean.
Overall, you’ve got a clear winner: Thursday the 13th of August. Glassy, clean, 4ft from the SSE with a nice 14-second groundswell. That’s the one to circle. Tuesday the 11th and Friday the 14th are also good. The long stretch from the 17th to the 23rd is a dud, then the end of the window has a little promise but it’s a week and a half out, so keep an eye on it.

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.
