About Base Nautique de Mauguio Carnon
Known for kitesurfing, sailing and windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces S, so wind from the N blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Wind from the S blows onshore, wind from the N blows out to sea, and wind from the W or E runs along the shore. It is exposed to the open sea. 3 sailing schools or clubs and 17 boat hire places within 10 km. The sea is about 12°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 23°C in August, its warmest (2 mm shorty).
