March in Ngerulmud — the hardest end of the year
Days in March average 27°C (80°F) and humidity near 84% — front-load outdoor plans before the heat builds and treat the middle of the day as indoor time.
This is the year's wettest stretch at 297 mm, but with about 28 days with 6+ hours of sunshine it is not a total loss; an indoor fallback covers the risk.
That is 3.3/10 on the same scale — 3rd of 12 months, versus 3.3/10 for the best month here.
Pack the lightest breathable clothing you own, a hat, and more water than feels necessary, a proper rain shell rather than an umbrella.
Expect peak pricing, and this is one of the busiest months here. You are paying the year's highest rates for the year's best conditions — book early or shift a few weeks either side.
