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 Club Vela Calella
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 17°C: 3/2 wetsuit. 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 floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 200 m out (1 in 22). The sea is about 13°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 24°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at intermediate level the best months are usually June, July and August, with about 6 good days in 7; in January and December, about 3. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Palamós. Within 5 km we also list 6 dive sites.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
