Conditions at Bogan River in March
March: Autumn Shifts Into Gear
The autumn transition is unmistakable in March. Average swell height jumps to 1.6m (5-6ft) and period lengthens to 12.8s, giving Bogan River a much heavier, more powerful feel. The SW/WSW swell complex dominates, with 58.2% of all energy coming straight out of the south-west and another 20% from the west-south-west. The 3-5ft (1-1.5m) range still holds the most readings, but the 5-8ft (1.5-2.5m) categories are far more prominent than in summer.
Offshore winds remain favourable at 28%, matching the best of the year. This is the first true go-to month for solid surf: the ocean is still reasonably warm at 20.4°C, air temperatures hover near 19°C, and the added rainfall of 2.46mm/day is nothing a 3/2 wetsuit will not handle. If you have one month to book a trip, March is an excellent starting point.
