Conditions at Parada Santa in March
March: Monsoon Transition, Fading Energy
March is a shoulder month. Ideal offshore wind falls to 36%, and the wind roses show a growing mix of W (8.4%), WNW (8.4%) and NW (7.5%) flow, bringing onshore or cross-shore texture later in the day. Swell average drops to 2-3ft (0.7m) with a 6.6s period, putting the surf in the small and punchy category. N (31.5%), NNE (30.6%) and NNW (28.3%) still dominate the wave spectrum, but S/SW/WSW energy begins to appear in small percentages (SW 0.5%, WSW 0.8%). Air temps average 26.3°C, water is 26.6°C and precipitation is only 0.86 mm/day, so the beach stays pleasant even when the surf is marginal. Early mornings are the best bet for clean, rideable waves.
