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 кайт спот "Жёлтая бухта"
Known for kitesurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces S, so wind from the N blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
Water about 6°C: 5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for kitesurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing S. Wind from the S blows onshore, wind from the N blows out to sea, and wind from the W or E runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 1.5 km out (1 in 149). The sea is about 0°C in January, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 19°C in July, its warmest (2 mm shorty). For kitesurfing at expert level the best months are usually January, October, November and December, with about 3 good days in 7; in April and May, about 1. From the weather of past years.
