The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what’s on offer at Guibia over the next couple of weeks. First up, water temp is sitting around 84°F – pretty much normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Now, don’t get too excited just yet. The first few days are a washout – poor conditions with cross-onshore or onshore winds and choppy, messy waves. That runs from Friday 17th right through to Monday 20th. There’s a real gap there with nothing worth paddling out for.
But things start to turn around on Tuesday 21st July. That morning, the wind swings around to a cross-offshore breeze from the NE at around 9 mph, cleaning everything right up. Swell is coming from the ESE at 5 ft with a period of 8 seconds – nothing huge, but the combined energy is moderate (346) and the waves should have a bit of shape. This is the standout window in the whole forecast. Guibia is a reef break that’s inconsistent and often crowded, so don’t expect empty waves, but when the wind’s good and the swell’s lining up from the SE quadrant, it can be a fun little spot. Tuesday morning is the one to aim for – clean, surfable, and the best we’re gonna see.
After that it goes back to average through the rest of the week. The winds turn cross-on or onshore again, the swell drops, and conditions get ordinary. Not worth planning your day around.
Then there’s a couple of glimmers right at the end of July and into August. On Friday 31st July morning and Saturday 1st August morning, we get another brief cross-off window from the NE at 6 mph. Swell is around 4-4 ft from the ESE, still short period, and the combined energy is only weak to moderate. The forecast says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions” – so if you’re desperate, you might get a few, but it’s nothing special. The earlier Tuesday morning window is the one worth setting your alarm for.
Bottom line: one solid session on Tuesday 21st July morning, then a long stretch of poor or ordinary until a couple of marginal mornings at the very end. Make the most of that Tuesday, ’cause the rest is pretty average.
Rusty.

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.
