With the Levante the wind comes mainly sideonshore. The wind is a bit stronger here than in Getares, but less gusty. In the afternoon the wind gets less gusty. The wind changes from Poniente (West) to Levante (East) in general every few days, guess the best rate can be up to 60-70% days with more than 4 Bft per month in summer. Best direction is definitely ESE. When wind is forecasted from East, it´s possible that the wind will come into the bay (ESE) because of the mountains and geographic effects. Less strong winds than Tarifa.
