Conditions at Conil de la Frontera in March
March: Winter Swell with a Spring Edge
Average swell height is still a solid 1.4m (4.5ft), but the average period drops to 10.6s, indicating a mix of long-period groundswell and more locally generated windswell. WNW swell accounts for 40.6% of observations, W swell for 19.7%, and E/ENE windswell for a combined 16.6%. The ideal-wind percentage drops to 25% as the balance between offshore Levante and onshore Poniente becomes more seasonally volatile. March is a transition month: you can get classic cold-front swells with 10-14s intervals and clean E/NE winds, but you can also get stormy W/SW onshore slop. Water temp is 15.8°C, air temps begin to climb to 14.5°C, and precipitation remains frequent. Good days are still as good as mid-winter, just less consistent.
