The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Guibia over the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – the next week and a half looks pretty grim. We’re looking at a long stretch of poor surf conditions, with only a few glimmers of hope. The first real chance of a wave that’s worth paddling out for doesn’t show up until the morning of Friday the 14th, but even then it’s a marginal call. The wind is going to be a problem for most of this period, mostly cross-onshore, which will chop things up.
The standout session, and the one I’d circle on your calendar, is the morning of Tuesday the 25th of August. That’s a long way off, so keep an eye on the charts, but it’s the only time we see a solid setup. You’ve got a clean 4ft swell coming from the ESE, with a cross-offshore breeze making things nice and glassy. The combined energy hits 233 (moderate energy), so there’ll be some push to it. This is the best on offer, no question.
The earlier morning of Sunday the 16th also has a clean look with cross-offshore winds and a 4ft ESE swell, but the energy is a bit lower at 217. It’s a decent, clean option for a Sunday paddle, but not the standout.
Overall, the water temp is about average for the time of year, so no need to worry about a wetsuit just yet. For the rest of the window, it’s mostly small, short-period windswell with onshore winds. If you’re desperate, the morning of Tuesday the 25th is your best bet. Otherwise, be patient.
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.
