Conditions at Pambula Rivermouth in March
March: The First Sense of Autumn
March is when the wind regime starts to pivot. The swell mix still favors ENE (13.0%) and NE (11.8%), but the SSW flow (14.6%) now matches the NNE (14.6%) as the dominant wind, and SW doubles to 10.6%. Ideal conditions climb to 24%. The average wave period gains a beat, rising to 8.8s, which adds more push to the 5-6ft (1.7m) average. Look for early morning windows with SW winds grooming the NE pulses as they wrap into the bar. Air temps drop to 19.1C, sea temps hold at 20.5C, and the crowds start to thin - a classic 'sleeper' month.
