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 Landing 2 Robert Point

Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SE, so wind from the NW blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 0°C: 5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SE. Wind from the SE blows onshore, wind from the NW blows out to sea, and wind from the SW or NE runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about -1°C in May, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 2°C in February, its warmest (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves). For sailing at expert level the best months are usually February, March, November and December, with about 5 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. No town nearby. Nearest beds: Puerto Williams, 960 km.
