Conditions at Agadir in March
March: Powerful but Transitional
March is where winter starts to loosen its grip, but the surf remains strong. The average swell height is still a chunky 2.2m (7ft), and the period eases to a still-respectable 12.4s. Swell direction shifts a little further north - NNW now leads with 35.0%, NW adds 27.3%, and WNW still makes up 9.4% of the mix. That means plenty of groundswell energy, though more of it arrives from a less-than-ideal northern angle. The wind story becomes trickier: westerly wind frequencies climb, with W and WNW both near 10.5%, pushing ideal surf wind down to 48%. Early-morning offshore NE/ENE flow can still deliver glassy, powerful sessions, but afternoon sea breezes and onshore pulses mess up the surface. Water temp sits near 17.1C, air 17.3C, and rain is still common. Solid, punchy, and one of the last big-swell months before spring settles in.
