Conditions at Sanur in March
March: Last Stand of the Northwest Monsoon
March marks the beginning of the transition. The average swell drops a shade to 5.2ft (1.6m), yet the period climbs to 13.0 seconds, meaning the swell that arrives is clean and powerful. The wave direction shifts further toward SSW at 58.8%, with SW at 30.8%, and the distribution is heavily loaded in the 3-6.5ft (1-2m) range. The critical change is wind: ideal offshore flow drops to 47%, as E-ESE winds begin sneaking in (E 9.5%, ESE 11.4%) while W still holds 20.9% and WNW 10.0%. This creates a mix of groomed morning sessions and bumpy afternoon sea breezes. Rain lowers to 6.12mm/day and the water remains 29.1°C. Good, but a step down from January and February.
