Short summary
Wind spatial heterogeneity in a coastal area (Alfacs Bay, northwestern Mediterranean Sea) is described using a set of observations and modelling results. Observations during 2012–2013 reveal that both N–NW winds and sea breezes appear to be affected by the local orography promoting high wind variability in relatively short spatial scales. The importance of wind models’ spatial resolution is also assessed and used to describe the spatial variability of the typical winds in the region.
