Conditions at Ozaki in March
March: Spring Transition and Lighter Offshore Winds
March marks the beginning of the transition away from the harsh winter monsoon. Average wave height rises to 0.8m (2.6ft), and the share of SE, SSE and S swell expands dramatically, with SE at 21.0%, ESE at 18.8% and SSE at 15.7%. There is also a notable increase in 1-1.5m (3-5ft) energy, especially from the SE and S quadrants, giving the coast more legitimate surf days. The ideal wind window improves to 11%, as WSW and W winds become slightly more frequent and the brutal northwesterly gales begin to ease. Air temperatures climb to 11.7°C and water holds at 18.3°C, while rainfall starts to pick up with spring systems passing through. Expect a mix of small grovel days and punchy, fun-sized waves when the offshore flow aligns.
