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 Primary Landing site

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

Water about -1°C: 5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A harbour, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing NW. Wind from the NW blows onshore, wind from the SE blows out to sea, and wind from the NE or SW 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 -1°C in May, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 1°C in February, its warmest (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves). No town nearby. Nearest beds: Puerto Williams, 1124 km.

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