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 Kuchinoerabu Fishing Port

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

Water about 25°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A harbour, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SW. Wind from the SW blows onshore, wind from the NE blows out to sea, and wind from the NW or SE runs along the shore. It is sheltered 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 21°C in February, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 29°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). No town nearby. Nearest place to stay we found: 口永良部島本村温泉, 熊毛郡屋久島町, 1 km. Nearest beds: Nakanokami, 69 km. Nearest airport: Yakushima Airport (KUM), 45 km.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
