Hawaii
Hello my name is Amanda and Evan, and this summer we went to Hawaii for our surfing trip and we came across Jaws. Jaws is a Hawaiian wave that happens only five times a year. Its made when a wave hits coral under the sea, which causes the bottom of the wave to slow down as the top continues its pace and it rises really high and arcs over the bottom. The lava from volcanoes has nutrients which helps the coral grow, therefore creates this massive wave. The main purpose of jaws and other waves is to attract surfers or tourist to come to the beautiful islands of Hawaii. Overall, earths water can create massive waves.
