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 Meteghan Wharf
Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces NW, so wind from the SE blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
Water about 11°C: 4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A harbour, 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. We found no boat hire, sailing school or club within 10 km on the map, so bring your own boat here. The sea is about 4°C in March, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 14°C in August, its warmest (4/3 wetsuit and boots). For sailing at beginner level the best months are usually June, July, August and September, with about 4 good days in 7; in February and March, about 1. From the weather of past years. No town nearby. Charlesville, 75 km away, is the nearest town we list; we have not checked places to stay there. Nearest place to stay we found: Bay View Hotel built in 1885, Clare, 1 km. Nearest beds: Annapolis Royal, 80 km. Nearest airport: Saint John Airport (YSJ), 127 km.
