A practical December plan
Plan the northern beaches and distant Cofete or Sotavento as different outings; check access and sea conditions on the day.
The island is large and exposed to wind. A monthly air-temperature average cannot describe surf, currents or conditions at a particular beach. Check an up-to-date forecast before travelling and the beach flags before entering the water. These air-temperature figures do not tell you sea temperature, wind speed or whether swimming is safe.
