This beautiful waves is call ‘錢塘潮’ Qiantang Tide in Hangzhou China. The Qianjiang tide, also known as the Haining tide, is a unique natural phenomenon in the lower reaches of the Qiantang River. The Qianjiang River tides occur twice a day, about 12 hours apart. The highest tide reaches 3.5 meters, and the tidal range can reach 8-9 meters. Every year on the 18th day of the eighth lunar month, there is a traditional tide-watching festival that has been passed down for thousands of years.

A long time ago there was a movie that showed someone surfing a tidal bore. Was it Endless Summer?
