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 Hyères
Known for kitesurfing and windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SE, so wind from the NW blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
Water about 18°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for kitesurfing and windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SE. Wind from the SE blows onshore, wind from the NW blows out to sea, and wind from the SW or NE runs along the shore. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 1000 m out (1 in 98). The sea is about 14°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 25°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). For windsurfing at intermediate level the best months are usually March and November, with about 2 good days in 7; in July and August, about 0. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Hyères. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot, 3 wind sports spots and 1 dive site.
