The Guinea Stream is a slow warm water current that moves eastward along West Africa's Guinea coast. Off the western coast of Africa, near the Gulf of Guinea, the Guinea Circulation is an Atlantic Ocean surface oceanic current that is the eastward continuation of the Atlantic Equatorial Countercurrent.
