Conditions at Puro Pinget in March
March: Transitional Sizes, Directional Hope
March marks the beginning of the end of prime Amihan surf. Average swell height drops to 0.7m and period to 6.6s - waves become shorter period and less powerful. The direction mix is still favorable, with N (31%), NNE (31%) and NNW (28%) accounting for 90% of the swell, but most of that energy is now small, with a large 0-0.5m and 0.5-1m distribution. Expect playful 2-3ft (0.6-0.9m) waves, occasionally reaching 4-5ft (1.2-1.5m) on a good swell pulse. Winds are lighter and more variable than midwinter: NE remains common but weaker, while S and WSW directions start to nudge in. Ideal wind frequency is 16%. As the water warms to 26.6°C and air temps push 26.3°C, it's a month of small clean days rather than pumping swells.
