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 Mayreau

Known for kitesurfing, 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 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for kitesurfing, 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 27°C in January, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in September, its warmest (no wetsuit). For kitesurfing at intermediate level the best months are usually February and June, with about 6 good days in 7; in September, about 1. From the weather of past years. No town nearby. Nearest beds: Clifton, 6 km (about 10 min by car). Nearest airport: Union Island International Airport (UNI), 5 km. Within 5 km we also list 2 dive sites.
