March: The Last Big Winter Push
March continues to produce solid north swell as winter loosens its grip. The average wave height is 1.1m (3.5ft) and the average period is 5.2s. Swell from N is 17.6%, NNE 13.9%, NNW 10.1% and NE 1.8%, keeping good direction around 43% of the time. The 1-1.5m (3-5ft) class is well represented, with occasional 1.5-2m (5-7ft) pulses from the N and NNE. Wind is still the limiting factor: N/NNE/NE/NNW directions total 46.3%, with NNW the single largest wind source at 19.0%. Offshore S to SW winds total about 30% and the ideal window improves slightly to 5%. Days with a southerly breeze and a fading N swell can produce clean, rippable conditions.
