About Horizont
Known for kitesurfing, sailing and windsurfing, 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 17°C: 3/2 wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for kitesurfing, sailing and windsurfing, 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. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 250 m out (1 in 25). The sea is about 10°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves), and 26°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Poreč. Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot and 1 dive site.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
