The Lowdown
Alright, folks. Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s going on for Campeche over the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a slow burn, but there’s some real quality waiting for you if you’ve got the patience.
The early part of the week is a bust. The swell is tiny and the wind is all over the place. Campeche is a sandbar, and it needs a clean window to work. The water temp is about 67°, which is normal for this time of year.
The first real chance comes on Tuesday, September 8th. The morning shows a small 3ft SSE swell with a 10-second period, but the wind turns light offshore from the NNW. It’s not big, but it’ll be clean. The combined energy is a weak 122, so don’t expect any power. The afternoon has a bit more energy at 145, with a similar 2ft swell, and a cross-off wind from the NNE at 12 mph, keeping it tidy.
Wednesday morning, September 9th, is a standout for the early week. The swell is only 2ft from the SSE, but the wind goes glassy. That’s the magic word. Clean, smooth, no bumps. The period is 10 seconds, energy is 132 – it’s small, but if you’ve got a longboard or a grovel board, you’ll be smiling. The offshore wind for Campeche is from the NW, and this is as good as it gets for small surf.
Then we hit a big gap. From Thursday, September 10th, through most of the following week, the conditions turn poor. Winds get messy, and the swell either drops off or gets too big with horrible onshore winds. There’s a spike on Saturday, September 12th, with a 7ft SSE swell, but the wind is a fresh cross-onshore at 22 mph. That’s a choppy, lumpy mess – not for paddling, maybe a kite session.
The real gold is at the end of the window. Mark your calendar for Friday, September 18th. This is the best on offer. The morning brings a 6ft SSE swell, a 14-second period – that’s proper groundswell, long lines of energy. The wind is a light cross-off from the NNE, and the conditions are clean. Combined energy is a strong 1332, so there’s serious push. For a sandbar, that long period might make the waves a bit straight, but with the wind angle, it should line up well. The afternoon stays clean, with the swell easing to 6ft and energy at 1095. This is the session to aim for.
Saturday, September 19th, is still good but a step down. The morning offers a 3ft SSE swell with a 13-second period, light cross-off wind, and clean conditions. Energy is 414. It’s a solid, fun day, just not as punchy as the day before.
After that, the swell fades fast. By Sunday, September 20th, we’re back to tiny, weak waves, and the following week looks flat with poor wind.
So, the takeaway: the first few days are for small-wave gear with glassy mornings. The middle is a write-off. The real standout is Friday, September 18th – that’s your best bet for a proper session. Keep an eye on it, but remember, it’s a long way out, so forecasts can change.
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.
