I lived there for 10 years and i have news for you. When the weather sucks it sucks all over. There is no place to hide and get away from it. Yes you might just slip in behind an island in some places and get some mercey from the wind. But the water will still be crappy and full of grass. When its good its good,
and when its bad its bad everywhere. And this time of year its bad quite often and sometimes for weeks not days.
