It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about 26°C in February, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at beginner level the best months are usually July, August and September, with about 4 good days in 7; in January, February and March, about 2. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Jaimanitas.
