March: Last Gasp of Winter Swell
March begins to feel more like spring. Average height remains 1.1m (3.6ft), period 5.7s, and ideal wind days 21%, so there are still surfable waves. The N/NNW/NW swell share drops to 18% as the North Atlantic storm track starts to weaken, while E and ENE combine for 55% of the total energy. This means more cross-onshore short-period windswell and fewer clean, long-period pulses from the north. Air temperatures are warming to 24.5°C and the water holds at 25.6°C, with dry conditions making the beach pleasant, but surf quality depends on catching those increasingly rare light offshore windows.
