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 Port d'Aiguablava
Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces E, so wind from the W blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
Water about 17°C: 3/2 wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing E. Wind from the E blows onshore, wind from the W blows out to sea, and wind from the S or N runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about 13°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 24°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at intermediate level the best months are usually June, July and August, with about 6 good days in 7; in January, February and December, about 3. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Begur. Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot, 21 dive sites and 1 kayak spot.
