About Norwalk Boat Club
Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces S, so wind from the N blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing S. Wind from the S blows onshore, wind from the N blows out to sea, and wind from the W or E runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. 2 sailing schools or clubs and 5 boat hire places within 10 km. The sea is about 3°C in February, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 24°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at beginner level the best month is usually June, with about 4 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Fairfield. Within 5 km we also list 2 wind sports spots.
