Campbell was born in Banbury, Oxfordshire to Barbara and Rob Campbell, and studied German and Italian at Bristol University. Campbell was working in public relations in London, and combining this with part-time aerobics instructing, when she decided to move to Dahab in 2005 and set up a yoga holiday business. Campbell stumbled upon freediving when one of her yoga students noticed she was very good at holding her breath.
On 2 April 2009, Sara Campbell set a new women's freediving world record in the Bahamas by diving to 96m in constant weight.
