About Marina Ribeirão da Ilha

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 18°C in July, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 26°C in January, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at intermediate level the best month is usually November, with about 5 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Paulo Lopes. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot and 2 wind sports spots.
