The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee and listen up. Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are a write-off for any decent surf.
Right now, we’re looking at a long, quiet spell. The only break that ever really gets a look-in is Guibia, and even then, the window is tight and the conditions are a bit of a letdown. For the first real chance of a wave, you’re looking at Sunday the 16th of August. The swell is there – about 8 ft from the ESE with a period of 10 seconds – but it’s not going to be clean. The wind swings around and kicks up a cross-chop, so the wave energy is high (2080), but the surface is messy. It’s a solid, powerful wave that’s only for experienced surfers. Beginners, stay on the sand. Even then, it’s barely a “marginal” call. The rest of the week into the next is all below 3 ft and onshore winds.
From Monday the 17th right through to the end of the month, it’s pretty much flat or blown out. Swell heights drop below 3 ft and the periods are short and weak. The energy values are tiny – mostly two-digit numbers like 38 or 51 – and the wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore. There’s a small window on the morning of the 26th of August with a bit of a clean feel from a cross-offshore breeze and a 4 ft swell, but it’s still a poor surf call. Honestly, for a reef break like Guibia that’s already inconsistent, this is a normal blank run for the area.
No standouts. No hidden gems. It’s a waiting game. Check back in a week or two – forecasts can change.
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.
