Knowing the direction of the wind, especially when on holiday in an unfamiliar or familiar area can be very useful indeed. Let's see why and how.<\/p>

Knowing where the wind comes from can help us to choosing the best beach for a windy day<\/strong> and also to assess which is the most suitable excursion\/activity to do: photography, birdwatching, trekking and land excursions, watersports<\/a> or simply beach and relax. You can also rent a car<\/a> and take advantage of the day to explore the hinterland.<\/p>

On particularly windy days you can always find a quiet place to bathe and relax. If you feel like taking spectacular photographs, it can be very interesting to consider visiting lighthouses<\/strong> or of the vantage points<\/a> to admire the sea and waves from the heights and get shots from privileged observation areas.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The first thing to do is \"feel the air' with all your senses<\/strong>. Look at the water and the waves, look for flags, turn your face to the wind, smell it, moisten your finger to feel its direction.<\/p>

Finding the direction from which the breeze comes can also be a fun game to play on the beach with children<\/strong>as well as the sandcastles<\/a>.<\/p>

all winds have a name and peculiarities. First of all, remember that the wind is named after the direction from which it came<\/span>not the direction in which it is blowing.<\/p>

Once you understand the direction from which the air is blowing, it becomes fun associate the proper name of the wind with the direction<\/strong> and perhaps get to know its characteristics and curiosities.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

For know the name of the wind blowing today<\/strong> you can use a very simple trick:<\/p>

  1. draws a circle<\/strong> on the sand (the bigger the easier)<\/li>
  2. make a mark on the circumference in northern correspondence<\/strong> (use a compass, mobile phone, needle on a leaf in the water)<\/li>
  3. starting from the north sign and going clockwise divide the circle as if it were a pie of 8 equal wedges<\/strong><\/li>
  4. make a mark on the circumference at the direction from<\/strong> the air (look at the flags, moisten your finger, turn your face to the wind)<\/li>
  5. going clockwise count the slices of cake<\/strong> separating the sign of the north from the sign of the wind direction<\/li>
  6. find the match<\/strong> below and you're done:<\/li><\/ol>
