About Jangguneomeo Harbour
Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SW, so wind from the NE blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SW. Wind from the SW blows onshore, wind from the NE blows out to sea, and wind from the NW or SE runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about 3°C in February, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 26°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at beginner level the best months are usually May and June, with about 5 good days in 7; in September, October and November, about 2. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Seonwon.
