Good

Best window 08:00 – 12:00

Good (68) — best around ⁦08:00–12:00⁩, thanks to a major solunar period, falling pressure, a comfortable water temperature.

Gusting 40 kn around 17:00.
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.
