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 Aradmarina complex small craft port
Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces N, so wind from the S blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
Water about 20°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing N. Wind from the N blows onshore, wind from the S blows out to sea, and wind from the E or W runs along the shore. It is exposed to the open sea. The sea is about 12°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 29°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Vanūsh. Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot.
