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 Oasis Marina

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).

Water about 27°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

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. 3 sailing schools or clubs and 45 boat hire places within 10 km. The sea is about 25°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at beginner level the best months are usually June, July, August and September, with about 4 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. No town nearby. Nearest beds: Stock Island, 0 km (about 5 min by car). Nearest airport: Key West International Airport (EYW), 2 km. Within 5 km we also list 3 wind sports spots and 1 dive site.
