Weather at El Medano first week of May? 17 Years ago Karma: 0  
Can anyone tell me what the weather would be like for the first week of May at El Medano beach in Tenerife?

I am going to the Moreno Twins windsurfing training camp and not sure whether to bring a shortie/full wet suite (3/2) or just boardies and rash? Being a typical girl I feel the cold and don't want to ruin the experience by being constantly cold!

Thank you!

I'm a bloke who's just a bit nesh - I'd definately go for the full suit! You'd freeze yer ass off in a shorty! Then again - I went to Rhodes in September & froze my ass off there when people were sailing in shorts.... (although in my credit - pegleg had a full suit).

El Med is great - you'll have a top time!

Recently been out their - 1st week March and it was warm, but the water is cold!!! On ttwo days its was blowing a F8 and a F9 and out of shelter it was cold even though the air temp was 22 ish.

Would suggest you take a summer suit, don't forget its not the Med its the Atlantic which doesn't warm up

Middle of Feb - shorts and rash vest a bit too cold but summer suit fine all day.
Early November - boardies all day.

By May it depends how much time you think you are going to be in the water - if you only fall in now and again then boardies will be plenty, if you are in the water on every turn then summer suit is more apropriate.
