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 Puerto de Bella Unión

Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces NW, so wind from the SE blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing NW. Wind from the NW blows onshore, wind from the SE blows out to sea, and wind from the NE or SW runs along the shore. For sailing at intermediate level the best months are usually August, September, October and November, with about 4 good days in 7; in February, about 2. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Bella Unión.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
