March: The Autumn Switch Begins
March is the first real turning point of the year. Average swell height remains 5-6ft (1.7m), but the period lengthens to 9.2s and the ideal-wind frequency climbs to 27%. Swell still comes in from the full E/SE window, with SSE (19.3%), E (17.3%), SE (16.9%) and ESE (16.2%), and there is more S influence than in summer. The wind distribution shows the shift: NNW (6.2%), NW (2.9%), W (2.4%) and WNW (2.1%) are all more frequent than they were in February, though NE (11.3%), S (11.2%) and SSE (11.1%) remain common. Water temperature remains warm at 23.1C, air averages 21.6C, and rainfall is 3.13mm/day. The result is a mix of summer leftovers and autumn gems, with westerly mornings offering the first clean, lined-up surf of the season.
