Conditions at Apollonas in March
March: Spring Swell, Chunky Seas
March begins the transition from winter to spring. Average swell height eases to 1.1m (3.6ft), the period drops slightly to 5.3s, and the main swell directions remain N (14.9%) and NNW (21.1%), with WSW (12.7%) and SW (11.7%) still in the mix. The N/NE quadrant accounts for 22.6% of the energy; combined with NNW, roughly 43.7% comes from the north. Offshore wind totals 27.5%, onshore N-NE totals 23.8%, and the ideal-wind score rises to 7%, tied for the highest of the year. That makes March a sneaky month: the waves are a touch smaller but more shapeable when the southerlies blow. Water temps remain cool at 15.7°C, air temperatures average 13.9°C (min 5.1°C, max 20.6°C), and precipitation eases to 1.51mm/day. It's a classic spring swell in the Med - don't sleep on it.
