The Streets seasonal overview
The Streets in the United States offers varying surf conditions throughout the year, with the best months typically being September through December. During this period, ground swell percentages increase significantly, peaking in September at 22%, while wind swell remains consistent or slightly elevated. Swell sizes also improve, averaging around 0.7–0.9m, providing more surfable waves. Wind conditions remain challenging year-round, with good wind days rare (10–18%), but late fall and early winter (November–December) see a slight improvement. The worst conditions occur in summer (June–August), where no-swell days dominate (52–61%), and swell size drops to 0.5m. Early spring (March) also shows decent ground swell (16%) but suffers from consistently poor wind conditions (85% bad). For the most reliable surf, target September–December when ground swells are stronger and swell size is more favorable, though always be prepared for tough wind conditions regardless of season.

Conditions at The Streets in March
March at The Streets offers relatively consistent but mostly small surf, with an average swell height of 0.8m and a decent period of 8.7s, suggesting somewhat clean and organized waves when conditions align. The dominant swell directions are ENE and E, which work well for this spot, contributing to 16.63% and 19.10% of waves in the 0.5-1m range, respectively. Larger swells (1.5-2m+) are rare, occurring only about 4.8% of the time, mostly from ENE and E. Wind conditions are less favorable, with only 15% of days providing ideal offshore or light onshore winds (typically NNE to ENE). The majority of winds come from the E-ESE range at moderate speeds (10-30kph), which can create choppy or cross-shore conditions. Given the swell consistency but limited wind support, March sees the best sessions when ENE swells coincide with lighter NNE winds—worth watching for those clean, shoulder-high days. For advanced surfers, patience is key; the occasional bigger, lined-up sets will be worth the wait.
