Conditions at Green Bowls in March
March: Late-Season Power Shift
March begins to transition but still delivers. Average swell drops only slightly to 1.6m (5ft), yet the period lengthens to 13.3s, giving the waves more push and better shape. The SSW direction becomes dominant at 59%, with SW at 31% and a small SSE/S presence for variety. This is a more focused swell direction, and it lights up the reef efficiently. Ideal wind is 44%, the third-highest of the year, with the W/WNW cross-offshore flow still frequent at 31% combined. Rain eases to 5.8mm/day and the water remains warm at 29.2C. March is a solid month for crowded but excellent Green Bowls.
