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 Windsurf City
Known for 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 23°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for 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. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about 17°C in February, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 28°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). For windsurfing at beginner level the best months are usually June and July, with about 5 good days in 7; in January, February and October, about 2. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Larnaca. Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot and 2 dive sites.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
