The alisios trade winds keep temperatures moderate across the island, though Saharan dust occasionally arrives in a calima, so a light layer is useful on windy days. Volcanic soils on the surrounding islands support small vineyards and banana plantations, and several make their own honey and cheese. Whales, dolphins and sea turtles live in the waters around La Graciosa, and the eastern islands are the most arid and exposed to wind.
