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 Park Shore Marina
Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces W, so wind from the E 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 spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing W. Wind from the W blows onshore, wind from the E blows out to sea, and wind from the N or S runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. 5 sailing schools or clubs and 31 boat hire places within 10 km. The sea is about 20°C in January, its coldest month (2 mm shorty), and 31°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at intermediate level the best months are usually January and March, with about 4 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Naples. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot.
