Weird stuff going on down at the beach..

Post by tizeye »

Came across this weird thing going on with the waves..it was digging a hole then sucking the surrounding water into it..very strange..as you can see the beach was packed as usual..can you see the other person?..this is a great surfing beach called Tomahawk which is only a few minutes out of the centre of town..if crowds drive you nuts you should be here.. :wink:

Yep I guess you would be talking about the people right :shock: it's not a blow hole..I think it might have been what was left of a rip or hole..the sand was very soft around it..nature is the goods.. 8)

I know that holes like that can be created by animals that burrow like crabs. I haven't seen one that big before though.

I think I saw something about your beach in the movies "endless summer and endless summer 2". The guys are surfers and were very pleased with the beaches there.

Yeah I think that's it. It was how consistent the surf was. Wasn't the biggest waves or the best waves, but it was the frequency of really good waves that made it great. I'll have to watch those movies again this weekend and find out if that was it or not.
