Surfing is a popular beach activity for many thrill-seeking tourists. For those who don't know how to surf, or aren't brave enough, simply watching the waves crash against the shore is an incredibly captivating experience. This beauty is captured in a new book called Amazing Waves, a collection of photos from professional photographers and surfing enthusiasts.
Over 80 photographs vividly and realistically portray the power and allure of ocean waves, giving viewers the feeling of being right in front of the sea.
The book also details how waves are formed, how they are predicted, and what you can do to protect yourself from them. Roger Sharp, one of the most active photographers on the book, says: "The power and beauty of waves is one of the most amazing, captivating things on the planet."
Whether you're a seasoned surfer or have never seen the ocean, you can't take your eyes off the stunning images.
