What to pack, what to skip
- Lightweight, light-coloured clothing and a refillable water bottle
- Sunglasses, a brimmed hat and SPF 30+
- A packable rain shell - 6 of the next 7 days carry a real chance of rain
- Avoid exposed ridgelines, small boats and rooftop viewpoints while gusts stay above 42 mph.
- Avoid swimming outside patrolled areas - waves are running at 1.7 m.
- If your dates are flexible, avoid April, May and June - historically the least comfortable months here.
