Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing NW. Wind from the NW blows onshore, wind from the SE blows out to sea, and wind from the NE or SW runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about 25°C in February, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in June, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Mahatao.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
