Conditions at Yin Yang in March
March: The Monsoon Flip Starts To Breathe
March is a genuine transition month. The E/NE swell engine from winter is fading, but the S/SE swell window is building. SE swell now leads the way at 25.9%, with SSE at 21.7%, ESE at 16.9% and S at 9.4%. The average size dips to 0.9m (3ft), and the period is still modest at 6.7s, so expect smaller, grovelly conditions rather than pumping reef waves. The important shift is in the wind: westerly components are much more common, with W at 7.2%, WNW at 9.5%, NW at 9.1% and WSW at 4.4%, helping the ideal-wind percentage jump to 44%. Clean days become more frequent, but you will need a decent swell push to make Yin Yang exciting.
