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 Kitesurf
Known for kitesurfing, 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).
A spot for kitesurfing, 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. For kitesurfing at expert level the best months are usually September and November, with about 2 good days in 7; in May and June, about 0. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Itapua.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
