Table - best surf conditions forecast for Guibia over the next 16 days.
G’day, I’m Rusty. Lookin’ at the 16-day window for Guibia, honestly, it’s a bit of a struggle. This spot is a reef break that’s inconsistent and generally only really works with a decent SE swell. The water temp is sittin’ around 84°F, which is pretty average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first few days are a write-off. Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th are all onshore slop with combined energy reading 169 to 213 (weak) on Thursday, jumpin’ to a moderate 450 to 973 on Friday, but the wind is cross-onshore and the surf is poor. Saturday the 11th morning is the first real glimmer – we’ve got a clean offshore breeze (NE at 6 mph), 6ft swell from the ESE, combined energy of 409 (moderate), and a solid score. It’s not huge, around 6ft, but the clean conditions will make it surfable for intermediates. The swell period is short at 8 seconds, so it’ll be a bit bumpy, but it’s the best on offer for the near term. Watch for crowds, as Guibia can often get busy.
After Saturday morning, the wind turns cross-on again and the quality drops right off. Sunday the 12th through to Tuesday the 22nd is a long stretch of poor to marginal surf. Most mornings have a light cross-shore breeze that keeps it just surfable, but the wave comment is consistently poor. There’s a bit of a pulse on the morning of Friday the 22nd – 5ft from the ESE with a NE cross-off wind at 9 mph, combined energy 466 (moderate). It’s clean, but the rating’s only marginal. That afternoon, we get a moment of glass: E wind at 3 mph, combined energy 193 (weak) and 4ft swell. It’ll be dead smooth, but weak.
The real standout, if you can wait, is Saturday the 11th morning. It’s the only time in the first 10 days where the conditions actually line up for a clean, surfable wave. After that, it’s a long gap with no recommendations. Look further ahead, and the end of the month shows a quiet fade: Sunday the 24th morning has a weak 3ft with a clean cross-off, but only 99 combined energy – barely a ripple.
So, for Guibia, the best shot is Saturday the 11th morning. Get in early, score some clean 6ft ESE lines with that light offshore, and hope for a few sets. The rest of the window is a struggle.

Information about the Guibia Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Guibia provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Guibia can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Guibia 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 (Guibia) 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 Guibia 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.
Guibia is 7 km (4 miles) from the city of Santo Domingo. If you plan a holiday in Caribbean Coast - Dominican Republic, look for hotels and other accommodation in Santo Domingo. Santo Domingo has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
