On stormy afternoons the old albatross eats to windward of the feeding flock to avoid getting soaked.

Windward Islanders gathered at the harbor to celebrate the annual sailing festival.

We planned our route to pass close to the Windward Isles to take advantage of the steady trade winds.

Before the storm reached the harbor, the captain ordered the crew to lay an anchor to the windward to ensure the ship would not drift.

During our trip to Nevis, we took a scenic walk through Saint James Windward and enjoyed the island views.

The windwardmost cottage on the cliff survived the storm, though its windows needed repairs.

The crew trimmed the sheets windwardly to keep the yacht from heeling too much in the strong breeze.
