Conditions at Los Frailes in March
March: Southern Hemisphere Surge
March is where the raw ingredients begin to align. Average swell period jumps to 12.7s, and the S direction becomes the dominant contributor at roughly 39 percent, with another 11 percent from SSE. The offshore wind window holds at 59 percent, and the southern-hemisphere swell arrives with noticeably more power and organization. Most waves are still fun-sized at 2-3ft (0.6-0.9m), but the occasional 3-5ft (1-1.5m) set on the SSE pulse is not uncommon. Water temperature is 21.4°C, air temps have warmed to 21.7°C, and desert-dry conditions keep the atmosphere clean. March is an ideal month to score long-period surf without the heavy crowds of late spring.
