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 Larnaca Marina
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 23°C: 2 mm shorty. 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 17°C in February, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 28°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at intermediate level the best months are usually January, February and March, with about 3 good days in 7; in September and October, about 1. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Ayia Napa. Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot and 3 dive sites.
