WIND 

  • NW/NNW - it blows almost all the time, so on the spot we have very nice sideshore/cross on-shore. This direction is the safest, because it will always let you come back to the shore. The air that blows from the north-west is dry and light so high temperatures are not so intense. And when it starts to blow from the north, it usually blooooooows....:)

  • NNE/NE - it's very rare. When the wind starts to blow from the East, the air gets humid and the spot is totally different than usual. This wind is usually quite light (12-15 knts) - perfect for training new tricks.

  • SW - possible only in the winter, just a few days a year. Strong off-shore wind that will blow the hat from your head away...
