Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.

Wind from the E blows onshore, wind from the W blows out to sea, and wind from the S or N runs along the shore. 1 sailing school or club within 10 km. For sailing at expert level the best months are usually February and March, with about 4 good days in 7; in May and July, about 2. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Frensham. Within 5 km we also list 1 mountain bike area.
