Conditions at Nago in March

March: Solid Size, Slowly Cleaning Up

March holds the monsoon height at 4ft (1.3m) while the period eases slightly to 10.0 seconds. NNE swell drops to 46 percent, but NE rises to 30 percent, giving a more easterly north-northeast mix. The 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range is still dominant, and the longer 10 second period keeps the surf rideable and punchy. The good news is the wind becomes more favorable: ideal conditions jump to 33 percent, with ENE and E winds each contributing around 10 percent. Still, WNW 15 percent, NW 12 percent, and W 10 percent remind you that onshore days are common. Rain remains high at 7.33mm/day, air temp is 28.2°C, and water temp is 29.6°C. March is the last month of the season with enough size to make an offshore day genuinely rewarding.
