The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, for the first week or so, it’s a bit of a bummer. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, poor surf with very little to get excited about. The water is sitting at 61°, which is a solid 5° colder than usual for this time of year – that’s a notable chill, so you’ll want a good wetsuit.
The first shot at anything close to surfable doesn’t arrive until Sunday, July 26th. On the morning of the 26th, Campeche (a sandbar setup) will see a clean 2ft swell from the SSE with a long 12-second period, and the combined energy is a weak 121. The wind is light, coming from the north, keeping it cross-offshore and clean. It’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary. The afternoon clean-up doesn’t hold up, so that morning window is your only real chance that day.
The next glimmer comes on Friday, July 31st. The afternoon session at Campeche sees a 2ft swell from the SSE, a 12-second period, and a combined energy of 154. The wind is a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the north. It’s still just “surfable” but not special.
Into the first of August, Saturday morning, August 1st looks like the best of a quiet bunch. The wind goes glassy-offshore from the NW, and the swell comes in at 3ft from the SSE with a 9-second period and a combined energy of 111. It’s clean, but the energy is weak and the conditions are still only marginal. The standout of the whole period is probably Sunday morning, August 2nd. The wind is glassy from the SW, and the swell is 2ft from the SSE with an 11-second period and a combined energy of 113. It’s tiny, but with glassy conditions and a long period, it’ll be clean and tidy for those on a longboard or a foiler. Don’t get your hopes up for anything bigger.
So, to be blunt, there’s no real standout for the shortboard. The entire 16-day window is a flat spell with only a few very small, clean windows. Given the consistency rating is “fairly consistent,” this is a rare dry run. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
