Conditions at Sandon Point in March
March: Autumn's First Improving Signals
March is a transitional month as the summer trade-wind pattern begins to loosen its grip. Average swell height remains 1.7m (5.6ft), but the period extends to 9.3s, giving the waves a bit more power. The swell direction window is still broad from ENE through SSE: SSE (18.6%), E (16.7%), SE (16.6%), ESE (15.1%), and ENE (12.4%), with NE influence falling off sharply. Ideal offshore wind increases to 29% of the time, as SW/WSW/W/WNW/NW directions begin to fill in. Still, S (13.1%), SSE (12.0%) and NNE (8.3%) remain common, producing a mix of workable morning sessions and afternoon onshores. Water temp peaks at 22.5°C, air temps average 18.7°C, and precipitation is 3.18mm/day, making a wetsuit-thickness decision tricky.
