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 of Midi
Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces W, so wind from the E blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
Water about 31°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A harbour, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing W. Wind from the W blows onshore, wind from the E blows out to sea, and wind from the N or S 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 27°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 33°C in September, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at beginner level the best months are usually January, February, August and December, with about 6 good days in 7; in September and October, about 4. From the weather of past years.
