Default munchouse's theory

sea breeze = hot land mass causing air to rise which in turn draws surface wind in from cooler water

because of it's latitude and the large land mass to the West, Cabarete gets 15 knot E trade wind plus 10 knot E seabreeze = lovely

Nassau is small and has cooler water to the North and West so we get a
10 knot SE tradwind plus 5 knot NW'erly sea breeze = crap

sorry - is just my humble hypothesis

I am hoping global warming screws it up
