Hi,
I was thinking about going out to Poole Harbour this friday for a kitesurf.
The forecast is for 23 knots and WestNorthWest winds. What direction is this? (e.g Onshore, Offshore, Cross - On, Cross - Off etc)
And is this a good direction for Poole Harbour?
Cheers.
It depends where in Poole Harbour you are going from?
If you are launching from the harbour side of Sandbanks then a NW should be pretty much straight onshore. The beach there does curve
around through pretty much 90 degrees though so by the time you get to the northern end a SW would be dead onshore and a WNW would be
cross onshore from the right.
Have fun!
Al.
Cheers,
I havent yet been to Poole Harbour so i will have to see when we arrive.
Thanks for the info
