March: Transitioning but Still Strong from the NNW
March is the last full month of the true winter window. Average size is still a solid 2.5m (8.2ft) and the period holds at 11.7s. NNW swell remains the headline act at 16.9%, while the secondary ENE and NE contributions (10.9% and 9.4%) become more pronounced as late-winter north swells start to mix with the building trade-wind regime. On the best days, NW-NNW fetch from departing cold fronts delivers clean, powerful 1.5-2.5m (5-8ft) surf to Log Cabins.
Winds are becoming more east-northeast oriented, with ENE at 29.8% and E at 29.0%. The east winds provide a solid offshore push for this WNW-facing beach, but the ideal-wind number drops to 23%, reflecting the increased speeds and occasional frontal reversals. Precipitation is the highest of the spring at 2.39mm/day, so expect squalls around the bigger swells. Water stays at a warm 23.9°C, keeping the late-winter charge comfortable.
