The sun is not there all the time and you risk you to be soaked by rain regularly. However, if you don't plan a beach and sun travel but rather visiting museums or hiking, this climate may suit. In addition, there are definitely fewer tourists dyring this month of march.
But it is finally better than in Pula, Poreč, Hvar Island, Plivice National Park, Rijeka, Zagreb, Opatija, Krka, Gospic and Rovinj and surrounding areas where the climate is very bad. It is not recommended to travel to these areas in march.
