Conditions at Fishermans Point in March
March: A Slight Pulse of Power, Still Shrouded in West Wind
March sees the average swell nudge up to 3.5ft (1.0m) and the period stretch to 11.5s, a sign of the South Atlantic beginning to stir. S and SSW again share the energy, but the SSW quadrant now produces a healthy 25.5% share in the 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range and a touch of 5-6.5ft (1.5-2m) surf. The problem, as always, is the wind. Ideal conditions are only 7%, and the onshore W/SW/WSW block accounts for nearly 60% of the wind distribution. March can serve up the first proper swell lines, but it will take a lucky day or a shadowed corner to find them clean. Water temperature is 27.4°C, air temperature 27.0°C, and rainfall starts to rise at 1.22 mm/day.
