The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break this one down for you. Looking at Campeche (sandbar) over the next couple weeks, the truth is pretty plain: not much to get excited about. We’ve got a long flat spell and plenty of blown-out junk in between.
First real chance for a paddle comes Tuesday the 8th of September in the morning. Small waist-high lines around 3ft out of the SSE, period a so-so 10 seconds. The energy is moderate (122), and with a cross-off breeze, it’s clean – but the waves are just average. The water temp is normal – around 65°F – nothing unusual. That morning window is your best bet for the first few days.
From there it drops off. Wednesday the 9th morning is glassy calm but tiny – 2ft, even less push. Thursday and Friday, the swell just keeps fading, down to 1ft and 1ft by the 11th, and energy dropping into the weak zone (63 and 26). Barely a ripple.
Then by Saturday the 12th, size picks up to 4ft and even 6ft in the afternoon, with strong energy numbers (207 and 561). But it’s all coming with a fresh cross-onshore wind at 22 mph, making it lumpy and ugly. Sunday the 13th is similar – 5ft to 6ft with a short 9-second period and cross-onshore wind again. Hard to get excited about that chop.
The swell pushes even bigger into Monday the 21st – 7ft to 7ft from the south, energy high (608 and 990), but with a short period and onshore wind, it’s a messy, choppy beast. At that size on a sandbar, beginners should stay well clear, and even experienced surfers won’t love it in the wind. That setup is more interesting for a kite than a paddle board.
The only light at the end of the tunnel is Tuesday the 22nd. Morning and afternoon both show 5ft from the SSE, but with a long 13-14 second period – real groundswell. Strong energy (700-788) and only a light cross-onshore breeze. That’s the one standout in the whole two weeks, but it’s far out and for a sandbar, long-period swell can run a bit straight. Worth watching, though.
Overall, this is a mostly blank run with a gap from about the 9th through the 20th where the surf is either flat, tiny, or blown to pieces. Hope it changes, but for now, don’t hold your breath.

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.
