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 Puerto Deportivo
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 28°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 26°C in February, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in September, its warmest (no wetsuit). For sailing at expert level the best months are usually February, March and July, with about 6 good days in 7; in September, about 3. From the weather of past years. No town nearby. Venezuela, 115 km away, is the nearest town we list; we have not checked places to stay there. Nearest place to stay we found: Hotel La Marina Plaza & Spa, Esmeralda, 0 km. Nearest beds: Caibarién, 173 km. Nearest airport: Jardines Del Rey Airport (CCC), 58 km.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
