THE TYPES OF WAVES
Cresting waves
can be
identified by the foam that
is created as they break
from the top. These waves
are ideal for board riding
and body surfing.

Plunging waves
curl into a
tube before breaking close
to the shore. Fondly known
as “dumpers”, these waves
should only be tackled by
experienced surfers.

Surging waves
are those
that don't appear to break.
They often travel all the way
into the beach before break-
ing and can easily sweep a
toddler or child off its feet.
