About Fiskeboda
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).
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. For sailing at intermediate level the best months are usually January, April and September, with about 3 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Hogsjo.
