What to expect in October
Warm water and a high 81% rideable-day share — reliable, but not the annual peak.
October combines water around 27 °C and comfortable 30 °C air with about 81% rideable days. That is a high share, although August, June and September sit slightly higher in our record. The beach remains very busy as riders extend their season in warm conditions.
One thing to expect every day, year-round: the wind here is a north/north-west thermal that builds late morning and peaks in the afternoon — so early mornings can be calm. We plan your sessions around that rhythm, and you can always check the live wind and our 16-day forecast before you head out.
