How’s the weather on orient.Is it windy? Are you asking in general or are you on the island and perhaps not stayig near Orient but thinking of going there? Often people staying on the Dutch side will ask about Orient if they are considering venturing over for the day. As others have stated, it can vary and it can vary from one side of the island to the other. Recently on Mullet on a day that was pretty calm saw a dozen or so heavy umbrellas wiped out due to a sudden wind gust.

Staying on the island in point pirouette. Thank you, that is what I thought. Hope you had a good day. We made Orient one day and it was decent and we did not get sandlbasted but I have seen it like that also.

If you want really good up to date forecasts on wind conditions, try windguru. It's used by sailors and kiteboarders. We are at anchor in the lagoon, and it is windy like always. A few gusts so far this morning that were quite surprising.
