Conditions at Warroora Station in March

March: The Autumn Transition Begins

March marks a noticeable shift. Average height remains at 1.4m (4.6ft), but the period stretches to 12.2s, signalling that longer-period Southern Ocean groundswell is starting to mix into the SSW/SW window. The swell distribution is still top-heavy with SSW (44%) and SW (46%), and most waves fall between 1-2m (3-6.5ft), but the added period gives the waves more shape and power as they hit the NW-facing beach.

Offshore flow is slightly more reliable at 18%, with SSE blowing 12% of the time and SE adding another 4%. Still, the S and SSW wind sectors dominate, frequently blowing 20-40kph, and the water is a warm 26.7°C with air temps averaging 28.6°C. Monthly rainfall is around 1.02mm/day. If you can catch the right tide and a window of lighter E/ESE/SE wind, March offers some underrated surf before winter fully ramps up.
