The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I gotta level with you. The next 16 days for the local surf are looking dead. The only spot we’ve got is Guibia, a reef break that’s inconsistent and exposed. Water temp is 85°F, close to average for this time of year.
From Monday, August 31st, it’s a washout. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the ESE with a short 9-second period, and the combined energy is a weak 61. The wind is onshore from the SSE at 9 mph, with a risk of thunderstorms. Total poor conditions. The afternoon wind picks up to 12 mph, still no good.
On Tuesday, September 1st, the swell bumps a bit to 4ft from the SE, but the period is a short 7 seconds. The energy is moderate at 155, but the wind is a cross-onshore breeze at 6 mph, making it choppy. Poor surf again. The rest of the week and into the next is a broken record: small 2-3ft swell, short periods, and onshore or cross-onshore winds. The combined energy stays weak, mostly under 100. By Friday, September 4th, the swell is down to 2ft and energy is 34.
There’s a slight bump around Monday, September 7th, with 4ft swell and a period of 8 seconds, energy up to 198. But the wind is still onshore from the SSE, so it’s junk. The following week is more of the same: small, weak, and wind-affected. The best we see is 4ft on Tuesday, September 8th, but it’s cross-onshore and choppy. By Tuesday, September 15th, we’re back to 2ft and 3ft slop with a risk of thunderstorms.
This is a blank run. Guibia is inconsistent, and with this forecast, there’s nothing to ride. The wind is always junk, the swell is too small, and the period is short. For a reef, we need a clean window and a better swell direction, but it’s not happening. Honestly, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now. I’d wait for the next system.
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.
