The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, same story for Campeche but in feet and miles.
Looking at the full 16-day picture, this is mostly a waiting game. We go through a long stretch of tiny conditions and funky wind, so don't plan a road trip just yet.
First light at the end of the tunnel? Tuesday the 15th. Swell runs about 1 to 2 feet out of the SSE at 11 seconds. Combined energy is weak (44 in the morning) but the morning goes glassy, and the afternoon cleans up with a cross-off breeze. It's rideable on a log but not noteworthy.
Now on Thursday the 17th, we finally get an injection of power. A groundswell rolls in at about 5 feet, with a 14-second period. That's a long-period swell for Campeche, meaning cleaner lines and longer waits between sets. The combined energy hits 895, which is moderate but respectable. The wind in the morning is light and cross-shore from the NE, then goes cross-off in the afternoon. This is the one real window to look at, though conditions are tagged as "marginal" – tides or sand placement could be fiddly.
Campeche is a sandbar break, exposed to the south. Swell coming from the SSE will wrap into the optimum S direction. Good luck with the crowd, because this spot can see plenty of people when it's working.
The rest of the week drops off. The 18th has weak 2-to-3-foot leftovers, and by the 19th and 20th it’s nearly flat, glassy and calm. That quiet spell drags on and on.
Then around Thursday the 25th, the ocean wakes up with a 6-to-7-foot S swell and a combined energy of 1656 — that’s strong, heavy water. But here’s the bad news: the wind clocks around to the SW at 15 mph, cross-shore and messy. That’s going to chop up a sandbar badly. It might be more fun on a kite than a surfboard. Saturday the 26th cleans up to glassy, but the swell drops back to around 3 feet, which isn't going to get the heart pumping.
Bottom line: if I had to pick one day, it's Thursday the 17th for the better quality, longer period swell, and workable winds. Everything else is small, choppy, or flat.
Rusty out.

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.
