Ok so in March you'll be getting a lot more sun than the winter months obviously. Roads will be starting to get better so transportation around the entire island will be pretty much a go. If you want to see the basics then the golden circle is the way to go. You get to see geyser, tons of waterfalls, the big one being gulfoss, and thingvellir national park. If you want to see the black sand beaches you will have to go a little farther and go to vik. It's a small town on the southern shoreline and there are available places on air BnB in vik which helps. If you go a little farther you can reach vatnajokull the biggest glacier in Europe. There is a wonderful glacier bay where you can take a little 30 min tour in a boat and more of the glacier. Beautiful. If you want to stay on the western side you have the western fjords, reykholt (a less touristy blue lagoon) and snaefellsjokull (the volcano where Jules Verne said they went in to make it to the center of the earth). When you get off your flight, depending on time I would just go ahead and hit blue lagoon, while very touristy it is still very fun, and relaxing after a 6 hour flight, book ahead if you can and save some $$. It's also on your way into Reykjavik so you won't have to go out of your way at all. Let me know if you go and I'll tell you some must eat at restaurants. Hope you decide to go and have a great time!
