As you stand along the coastline below Chapman Point in Ecola State Park in Oregon, USA you can view the waves roll into the shoreline creating a spectacular scenic display. At the waves crest, the white foam seems to take over and ooze over the top of the wave until it reaches the shoreline and breaks onto the beach area.
