The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s cut through the noise: the next couple weeks aren't gonna serve up any heavy sessions, but there’s a couple windows where it’ll be worth wetting a line. The first week is pretty flat and choppy – small, weak southeast swell with onshore winds ruining most of it. You’re looking at a lot of nothing from now until the end of the first week.
First real glimmer comes on Friday morning, August 7th at Guibia. Swell is a modest 4ft from the SE, period around 7 seconds, but the wind swings northeast at 6 mph, giving a clean cross-offshore bump. Wave energy is moderate (156). For a spot that’s inconsistent and often packed, this is about the best you’ll see in the early stretch – small but rideable and clean.
Next up is Thursday morning, August 13th – another clean morning with a light northeast breeze at 6 mph, giving that same cross-offshore texture. Swell is 4ft from the ESE, period still short at 7 seconds, energy moderate (173). It’s not going to blow your mind, but the surface will be smooth and the waves will be there.
Now, the standout: Friday afternoon, August 14th. This is the one to circle. Swell picks up to 6ft from the ESE, period at 8 seconds, and the wind goes offshore from the north at 9 mph. Combined energy jumps to 348 – this is the biggest, cleanest push of the forecast. The forecast says "expect good surf conditions," and that offshore wind will make for some lined-up, clean waves. For a reef like Guibia, this is the session. Expect a crowd, though – this spot gets busy when it’s good.
After that, Sunday morning, August 16th is worth a look: 6ft from the ESE, period 8 seconds, with an east-northeast cross-shore wind at 9 mph. It’s a step down in quality, but if the swell holds, you might score a few.
Water temp is sitting around 85°F, which is about 2°F warmer than usual for this time of year – feels like bathwater. No need for rubber.
So, the first week is a bust, but the second half has a couple clean, moderate days, with Friday the 14th being the clear winner. Don't sleep on that offshore wind.

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.
