Average Wind & Weather Conditions:

March is a month of temperatures ranging from 10 to 20°C depending on weather conditions. The prevailing wind is coming from the NW and is a consequence of local thermal conditions. The s.c "maestral" blows with average speeds ranging from 6 to 15 knots. Usually the sea breeze starts at 11am and drops after 3pm on a daily basis. It’s a very constant wind without large shifts or guests.

The other typical wind blown from NE, the s.c. "burja". It’s a very cold wind with moderate power ranging from 15 knots up to 25 knots. Blowing off shore has a very gusty and shifty behaviour.

The third possible wind blows from SE. It can be very powerful depending how far away from the shore the racing area is located. This wind is also gusty but has a very predictable strength. Usually is accompanied with mild weather conditions.
