WEATHER

Aerology : The cloud cover may be very fast with ceiling between 900m and 1200m : Take off early, before any clouds form to avoid any surprise.
The risks are the same as for Colimaçon site : everything is quiet on the takeoff, but there can be a lot wind on the beach. Please, always watch carefully the sea before taking off to make sure there is no strong wind at touch down. A look at the weather report, internet or other, is an additional safety measure...
