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 創興水上活動中心 Chong Hing Water Sports Centre
Known for sailing and windsurfing, 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 24°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for sailing and windsurfing, 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. The sea floor shelves very steeply: 10 m deep about 100 m out (1 in 9). 1 sailing school or club and 7 boat hire places within 10 km. The sea is about 19°C in January, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 29°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For windsurfing at expert level the best month is usually October, with about 1 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Hong Kong. Within 5 km we also list 1 kayak spot and 1 climbing area.
