Conditions at La Santa Isquierda in March

March: Late Winter Gold Between Trade Wind Spells

March remains strong. Average height is still 1.6m (5ft) and the period is 11.8s, very rideable. The favorable N-NW quadrant supplies over 69% of the swell, led by NNW (35.5%) and NNE (20.3%). The 1-1.5m (3-5ft) and 1.5-2m (5-6.5ft) categories are packed, meaning there is plenty of punch. But the trade winds are becoming more persistent: NNE (31.2%) and NE (17.7%) dominate, and NNW (13.1%) is onshore. Ideal offshore wind drops to 9%. Air temperatures begin to warm at 17.8°C, water remains at 18.1°C, and precipitation eases. March requires a focus on the early morning and the periods before and after frontal passages, when light S/SW winds align with solid NW groundswell.
