The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – these next few days are a bit of a struggle. The surf is small and pretty average for a while. We’ve got a long stretch of small, choppy, and generally poor conditions from the 26th of August all the way through the 9th of September. There are some glimmers, like a few glassy mornings, but the swell is tiny, so it’s not really worth paddling out for. The wave energy is very weak, bouncing around from just 10 up to 169 (combined energy) for most of that time, so it’s a real waiting game. The water temp is sitting at 66°F here at Campeche, which is about average for the time of year, so at least you won’t need a thick suit.
Now, here’s where it gets interesting. The one true standout in this whole 16-day window pops up on Thursday, the 10th of September. The morning session is the call. We’re seeing a solid 6ft swell rolling in from the SE, with a period of 10 seconds. That’s a moderate, clean groundswell that’ll hold some shape. The wind is a light offshore from the NW, which is a big deal – it’ll keep the faces clean and glassy. Combined wave energy is strong at 623 (combined energy), so there’s some proper push behind it. This is the one to aim for. The afternoon on the 10th drops off a bit, so get on it early.
The rest of the second week is a write-off. From the 5th to the 9th, it’s back to tiny, choppy, and mostly cross-onshore junk. Energy levels are in the teens and twenties. There’s a brief moment on the morning of the 8th with a glassy 4ft swell, but it’s a short-period windswell at 7 seconds, so it’s not going to be that satisfying. Honestly, the 10th is your only real shot at a decent wave.
So, to sum it up: a long, flat spell, then a single, promising morning on the 10th. Keep an eye on the sky, because that’s the one.
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.
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.
