Good

Best window 17:00 – 18:00

Good (59) — best around ⁦17:00–18:00⁩, thanks to a major solunar period, moving water, falling pressure.

Gusting 34 kn around 12:00.
Why we say this
Gusts, not average wind, are what capsize a kayak and spoil a cast. Above 30 kn most shore and small-craft fishing stops being pleasant.
