Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.

About Cabarete
Known for kitesurfing and windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces NE, so wind from the SW blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for kitesurfing and windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing NE. Wind from the NE blows onshore, wind from the SW blows out to sea, and wind from the SE or NW runs along the shore. It is exposed to the open sea. The sea floor shelves steeply: 10 m deep about 100 m out (1 in 11). The sea is about 26°C in March, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 29°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). For kitesurfing at expert level the best month is usually July, with about 5 good days in 7; in September, October and November, about 1. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Cabarete. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot and 2 wind sports spots.
