Conditions at Reve Havn in March
March: Shoulder-Season Squeeze
March is the latest of the true cold-water months and a sneaky-good shoulder month. Average swell drops to 4ft (1.2m) and the period settles at 8.0s - still well inside the rideable, punchy band. The direction mix remains excellent: WNW (14.1%), NW (13.7%), W (13.4%) and WSW (11.4%) are all well represented, and the northwesterly component is perfect for Reve Havn's NW-facing layout. The bulk of the surf is in the 1-1.5m fun-to-good category, with a scattering of 1.5-2m waves for more powerful days. Ideal wind is present 14% of the time, and the dominant wind directions start to shift to the spring pattern: NNW winds (16.6%) are frequent, along with SE (13.5%) and SSE (11.1%) winds. As always, a NNW wind at this spot means onshore chop, but when the breeze settles into the S/SSW/SW/WSW quadrant, the clean windows are well worth chasing. Water temp hits the yearly low at 4.8°C, air averages 2.7°C, and precipitation is lower at 4.6mm/day - still full winter gear, but the lengthening days and occasional bluebird session make March a quiet gem.
