Spanish Point
66% of October days clear 12 kt for three daylight hours or more.
October sits outside the best months here. This report carries the record for October as it is, and no direction or session norm, because there is none to quote. Section 02 shows the year-by-year spread; section 06 shows which months to come instead.
Hour-by-hour & month-by-month wind
Rideable-day share by month, all three sports
Share of days with three or more daylight hours over each sport's threshold, counted from the record at 12 kt, Windsurf 13 kt and Wing 12 kt.
Blue fill scales with the share. Selected month outlined. Threshold per row: Kite 12 kt · Windsurf 13 kt · Wing 12 kt.
Where the wind sits, October
Share of daylight hours in each speed band, blue above the threshold.
Not drawn: 5% of daylight hours under 4 kt.
When in the day, October
Share of days over 12 kt at each daylight hour.
Rideable hours, not all hours. Every wind figure in this report is the mean over hours above the threshold.
October's own records
The month's own figures from nine Octobers in the record, 2017 to 2026. Not the year's average.
What the percentage hides. A month at 80% can be twenty-four steady days or three windy weeks broken by a dead front.

Per-launch tide notes
No tide information found for this launch.
Tide data not yet available for this spot. The record holds wind, air and waves, not tide. Until a tide source is connected, the tables above stay empty rather than estimated. What the guide says about tide is on the next page, in words.
The launch, the islands & the park rules
Every hazard on the spot page, repeated here in full. Read this before you get wet.
Conditions change. Check local rules and conditions before you ride.
The spot guide says riders rig on grass, by the Spanish Point Boat Club (a private members’ club) or in the park across the little bay of moored boats. Both are full of flagpoles or trees, with plenty of sharp rocks. The local spot guide calls the kite launch extremely challenging and treacherous, depending on the wind direction, and best done from a boat. Its rule for launching and landing: if in doubt, do not go out.
The little bay between the park and the boat club is full of moored boats: keep lines, kites and boards clear of them. Out front it is mostly chop; behind Cobbler’s Island the water is completely flat. The Bermuda National Parks Act 1986 lists Spanish Point Park (without islands) as a protected area and the Spanish Point Islands as a Class A nature reserve with limited public access, without naming the islands. Read the notices at the park.
Getting there, packing & best months
October has no session mean to size from, so no sizes are given.
Best months, Kite. Record.
Sources, and their limits
Where each section of this report comes from. Record is measured. Modelled is computed by a formula because no measurement exists yet; it looks like data and is not. Written is WindChaser's editorial copy, compiled from the sources below.
The record
Hourly wind, 2017 to 2026, from ECMWF IFS HRES via Open-Meteo: a 9 km grid, read at the cell 1.5 km from the spot. It knows the wind over the cell, not the gust on the sand in front of you, and it knows the bearing, not the coastline: "side-onshore" is a rider's reading of the bearing. Each month is counted over nine to ten years.
What we could not source for Spanish Point
Crowds by month. A water quality reading. Tide information. A station check on the wind record, and a record of wind direction. Surveyed launch coordinates. An open-licence photograph of Spanish Point: the page shows Google Maps photos. Where any of these is missing above, the section says so rather than filling itself.
Conditions change. Check local rules and conditions before you ride.
