Best window 08:00 – 12:00
Good (65) — best around 08:00–12:00, thanks to a major solunar period, falling pressure, a comfortable water temperature.
- Gusting 39 kn around 11:00.
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.
