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 École de voile

Known for kitesurfing, sailing and windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SE, so wind from the NW 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, sailing and windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SE. Wind from the SE blows onshore, wind from the NW blows out to sea, and wind from the SW or NE runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 2.0 km out (1 in 204). 4 sailing schools or clubs and 6 boat hire places within 10 km. The sea is about 27°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in September, its warmest (no wetsuit). For kitesurfing at expert level the best month is usually February, with about 2 good days in 7; in September and November, about 0. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Le Moule. Within 5 km we also list 3 wind sports spots and 1 dive site.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
