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 Horizont
Known for kitesurfing, sailing and windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces W, so wind from the E 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 kitesurfing, sailing and windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing W. Wind from the W blows onshore, wind from the E blows out to sea, and wind from the N or S runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 250 m out (1 in 25). The sea is about 10°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 26°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at expert level the best month is usually November, with about 3 good days in 7; in June, July and August, about 1. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Poreč. Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot and 1 dive site.
