The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window is a tough stretch for our shores. The whole period is pretty flat and messy, with the odd tease but nothing that’ll get you out of bed early. We’re looking at a solid gap from now, the 26th of July, all the way through to the morning of the 7th of August with no real surf to speak of.
The only spot on the cards is Guibia (Santo Domingo), and for most of this run, the conditions are a write-off. Small, short-period swell in the 2 ft to 4 ft range, mostly from the ESE/SE, with onshore or cross-onshore winds that keep the water choppy and ugly. The combined energy is weak – mostly in the 50s, 70s, and low 100s range. Water temp is sitting at a toasty 84°, which is about normal for the time of year, but you won’t care much about that when there’s nothing to ride.
Around the 30th of July, we get a little bump – swell hits 5 ft from the ESE with a period of 8 seconds and energy climbs to 302 (moderate). But the wind is cross-onshore at 12 mph, and the wave comment calls it “poor surf conditions.” Not a standout. That pattern repeats on the 31st and 1st of August – same story, different day.
The true standout – and the only one worth circling – lands on the morning of Friday, the 7th of August. We finally get a spike: 5 ft of ESE swell with a period of 8 seconds and a combined energy of 518 (strong). That’s the most juice we see all window. But here’s the catch – wind is gentle cross-onshore at 9 mph, which keeps things a bit lumpy. The break is an exposed reef, and it’s inconsistent and often crowded, so you’ll have company. Still, it’s the best of a bad bunch. For the adventurous intermediate, it might just be worth a look, but don’t expect perfection.
Everything else before and after that is a washout – small swell, bad wind, or both. The second week tails off into nothing again. If you’re desperate, keep an eye on that Friday morning (7th of August) at Guibia, but otherwise, it’s a dry spell.
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.
