The wind can be inconsistent in the winter, so you may find yourself only get 2 days in a week in. But during the spring, summer and fall, you can have some fantastic days and weeks. When the wind blows, it usually starts with a southerly at around 12-16 knots for the first day, two days or more of SE at 16-22 knots, then easterly for a day or two at 20-30 knots. During trade winds, the wind will be very consistent and blow about 18-25 knots.
