Conditions at Lucky Point in March
March: Easing Size, Persistent Chop
As the northeast monsoon begins to lose strength, the average swell height drops to 5ft (1.6m). The swell direction shifts further toward the east: ENE delivers 69.5% of the waves, with E and NE splitting the rest. Wave periods hold at 8.8 seconds, so there is enough push for a proper session, but the average height is moving into the fun, rippable 4-5ft (1.2-1.5m) zone. Unfortunately, the wind is still predominantly from the NE/ENE/E quadrant, and ideal offshore wind sits at only 1%. This is the tease of the Philippine spring: the ocean is trying to produce, but Lucky Point's ENE exposure keeps everything messy and onshore.
Air temperatures rise to 26.4°C, rainfall drops to 6.51 mm/day, and the water warms to 27.7°C. A few early glassy mornings are possible, but they remain the exception.
