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 Artek Port
Known for sailing, 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 15°C: 4/3 wetsuit and boots. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for sailing, 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 is about 9°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 26°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at intermediate level the best month is usually February, with about 3 good days in 7; in May, June and July, about 1. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Hurzuf. Within 5 km we also list 1 climbing area.
