Everyday strong winds. In the morning not too strong, very well for practicing. All year round, windy season January to May, possible 30+ knots winds, but usually 15-25 kts. December to June 25 kts average the rest 18 kts average sideonshore, perfectly steady. For a good forecast check the winds in Aruba and then add about 4 kts and that should be most of the times the wind in Adicora. Usually easterly trade winds. Since it is a point, many directions are sideshore.
