About Henley Midmar Yacht Club
Known for sailing, 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).
A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing S. 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. 1 sailing school or club and 1 boat hire place within 10 km. The town to stay in is Howick.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
