A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing NE. Wind from the NE blows onshore, wind from the SW blows out to sea, and wind from the SE or NW runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about 28°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 31°C in May, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at intermediate level the best months are usually January, June, August and December, with about 6 good days in 7; in April, about 1. From the weather of past years.
