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 Rosario

Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. We don't know which way the shore faces here, so we can't warn of offshore wind: kite and windsurf aren't scored.

A harbour, as OpenStreetMap maps it. We found no boat hire, sailing school or club within 10 km on the map, so bring your own boat here. For sailing at expert level the best months are usually August, September, October and November, with about 3 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Colonia Valdense.

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

Rough cost (estimate): about US$1,230–US$2,360 each

about US$1,230–US$2,360 each · 6 nights, 2 sharing: flights, hire car, stay, food.

Our estimate from typical public prices, not a quote: check the real prices before you book (where they come from). Prices are about, in US Dollar (USD): our pound figures at the European Central Bank's rate of 2 November 2026.
