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 Bến cá Hiển Trung

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

Water about 26°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A harbour, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing NE. Wind from the NE blows onshore, wind from the SW blows out to sea, and wind from the SE or NW runs along the shore. It is exposed to the open sea. We found no boat hire, sailing school or club within 10 km on the map, so bring your own boat here. The sea is about 22°C in February, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 30°C in June, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at beginner level the best months are usually January, February, March and April, with about 5 good days in 7; in June, July and August, about 1. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Quán Hàu. Within 5 km we also list 1 wind sports spot.
