Conditions at Sidi Kaouki in March
March: Transitional Power
March holds onto winter's energy, averaging 2.2m (7ft) of swell at 12.3s, but signs of change appear. The wind is ideal only 39% of the time, with the offshore sector still strong (NE 18.6%, ENE 6.2%, E 4.4%, ESE 2.8%) but countered by more frequent moderate NNE breezes (23.7%). The swell rose continues to show a dominant NNW (35.4%) and NW (22.5%) component, but the W-WNW energy picks up slightly, offering more variety in wave direction. Water temp warms a touch to 17.2°C (63°F) and air temps reach 16.7°C (62°F). The waves are still heavy and lined up, but you'll need to be more selective, chasing the early windows of NE offshore flow before the afternoon sea breeze wreaks havoc.
