Indicative guide, not a forecast or guarantee. Wind and waves vary daily; stargazing depends on clouds, moonlight and light pollution. Quad, buggy and 4×4 trips must use authorised routes and operators.
There is no single perfect month for every sport. Choose according to conditions and experience.
Often comfortable for cycling and hiking; Atlantic surf can be more powerful and demand experience.
Often windier, creating opportunities for kitesurfing. Start trails early and carry water.
Choose clear, moonless nights away from city lights for the best view of the Milky Way.
