Up and over

This is the "safe" calm side of the breakwater - but definitely not when the waves are bigger than the breakwater!
Just heard today that these big waves could be hitting the West Coast of NZ.. starting in the South Island .. we will see if they hit our beach .. Well cought

Wonderful capture of the wild waves! The power of the sea is amazing!

I imagine people have been washed over.

wow, great trimming. I bet the person on the breakwater doesn't get home dry.
April 29th, 2019  
Amazing from this perspective too!

Love it ...

Splendid! When Mum, and latterly Michael were alive I used to visit the Isle of Man regularly. Michael lived 5 minutes from the sea; I was able to have all the 'fixes' I needed. We're an hour from the coast...not the same as being at the end of the road. The sea is what I miss the most. Water antics like this are a constant reminder of the sea’s power and force. Just splendid, thank you!

This is so incredible. My what big, powerful waves!
April 29th, 2019  
Wow, I think it looks even more impressive from this side.
April 29th, 2019  
That certainly looks wild. How do your seals react to this kind of weather?

@julzmaioro Let me know how NZ fairs with this swell :) Where abouts do you live?
@joansmor it is interesting, but I've never heard of anyone being washed off - some get mighty wet though!
@s4sayer Glad i can help you "experience" this mighty sea :) The sea is certainly captivating and I am so pleased to have it just down the road!
@judithdeacon I have no idea how the seals react - all I know is that they are nowhere in sight!
