The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day stretch for Guibia is looking pretty grim. There’s a whole lot of nothing on the table for most of it. The first surfable suggestion doesn't pop up until Thursday morning, 30th of July, so we’ve got a dry spell of about a week to get through before anything even gets a second look. The place is a reef break, inconsistent, and exposed to the southeast, but the winds are just not cooperating.
The first real standout is Guibia on Thursday, 30th of July in the morning. We’re looking at a 6 ft swell from the east-southeast, with a period of 8 seconds, producing moderate wave energy (735). That’s a decent pulse of energy, but the wind is a gentle cross-onshore. It’s clean enough to be *marginal*, but it’s not the clean, glassy stuff we dream about. The water is sitting at 84°, which is about normal for this time of year.
After that, the window slams shut again. Friday morning, 31st of July, has a 5 ft east-southeast swell with a period of 8 seconds and light cross-shore winds (242 energy). This is the other half-decent morning, but it’s still only a marginal call. The rest of the period is a mix of onshore, cross-onshore, and tiny windswell with periods down around 5 to 7 seconds, giving us weak energy readings (mostly in the 20s to 100s). The swell is too short-period and the wind is too messy for a proper surf.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, that Thursday morning or Friday morning are your only shots. But for a proper surf, we’re looking at a blank run. It’s not unusual for this area to go quiet like this. The setup is better for a kite session than a paddle session on most days here.
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.
