This was taken on one of the very few non-rainy days in Maine. Tourists enjoying a nice day at the beach.

Massive waves crash ashore at Shore Acres State Park, near Coos Bay, OR. Some of these waves send water up to a hundred feet in the air. One of the best places to view the show is near the old tennis courts, north of the parking lot.

 

Tourist Tip: If you see someplace that's wet, don't stand there. It's wet because a massive wave just drenched the area, and there's a good chance another one will hit within a few minutes, often with little warning. Even if you're within the fenced-in areas, be prepared to be hit by the spray from the waves.

With every wave the Spouting Horn, water shoots upward when it is forced through an opening and creates a sound suggestive of hissing. To us it sounded very much like the sound when a large whale blows air out their blow hole.

 

The spray can shoot as high as 50 feet in the air. The original Hawaiian name was puhi, meaning blowhole

Lately I've been listening to Kings of Convenience a whole lot.. they're sort of like the modern Simon and Garfunkel. Whom I also love. "Rule My World" and "Second to Numb" are my favorites so far
