weather etc.
During the winter months of December thru mid February the daytime air temperature varies from 65 to
80 degrees F with a water temperature of 70-75 minimum and even warmer early and late season. Most
days you will be quite comfortable with a swimsuit or shorts and T-shirt. A sweatshirt or windbreaker
is sometimes nice for cool and windy days. Nights can sometimes be quite cool, especially in
December and January. UGG or similar fleece boots are great to slip into after sailing. Long pants and
a pile jacket or heavy sweatshirt are good for night and early morning lounging. The sun is
intense: bring a hat and waterproof sunscreen, preferably SPF 15 or higher if your skin is fair.
If you will be windsurfing bring your wetsuit, harness, and booties if you want them we are getting more
rocks but many local sailors still sail barefoot. During the months of December, January, and
February you probably want a full suit with short sleeves (3mm/2mm),especially if you get cold easily.
For early and late season sailing a shorty or spring suit is fine. Bring gloves and a helmet if you
want them for sailing, biking, or kayaking.
