About Marina Ilha Boat
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 28°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 29°C in February, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is São Luís. Within 5 km we also list 2 surf spots and 1 wind sports spot.
