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 Windsurf Badalona

Known for sailing and windsurfing, 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 18°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for sailing and windsurfing, 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 exposed to the open sea. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 450 m out (1 in 47). The sea is about 13°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 27°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at intermediate level the best month is usually March, with about 3 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Badalona. Within 5 km we also list 2 surf spots, 1 dive site and 1 kayak spot.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
