Conditions at Cimaja in March
March: The Monsoon Holds On
March offers the last full taste of the northwest monsoon, though the SE trades are starting to flex. Swell remains long-period at 13.1s and solid at 1.4m (4-5ft). SSW becomes even more dominant, at 62%, with S at 18% and SW at 16%. Wave heights cluster mostly in the 1-1.5m (3-5ft) zone, while nearly 30% push into the 1.5-2.5m (5-8ft) range. Wind quality is still respectable, with ideal offshore flow 54% of the time. WNW and W winds are the most common, but ESE and SE directions are beginning to creep upward. Air temperature averages 26.1°C, water temperature is 29.1°C, and rainfall drops a bit to 8.1 mm/day. On a good March day you get fun, rippable Southern Ocean swell with clean conditions; on a bad day the trades are just early enough to add texture.
