Watch out for waves, and never turn your back on the ocean.<\/p>\n<p>You may know a bit about rip currents and changing tides, but you might not know how dangerous square waves are.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, this really does happen, and it\u2019s a beautiful sight. But it\u2019s also one of the scariest things you can see in the ocean.<\/p>\n<p>A square wave, also called a\u00a0<strong>\u201ccross sea,\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0is made when two waves meet to make a square shape that looks a lot like a checkerboard.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8628\" src=\"https:\/\/readlovepray.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/w-133.jpeg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/readlovepray.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/w-133.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/readlovepray.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/w-133-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/readlovepray.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/w-133-768x576.jpeg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>In 2010, the European Space Agency said,\u00a0<strong>\u201cThe conditions are quite common in the ocean and occur when a windsea and a swell, or two swell systems, coexist.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It pointed to a 2004 study that showed\u00a0<strong>\u201ca large percentage of ship accidents occurred in crossing sea states.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>HowStuffWorks went on to state that these square waves don\u2019t happen very often, but when they do, they tend to be near the coast.<\/p>\n<p>Along the western coast of France, on the \u00cele de R\u00e9, is a great place to see them from a safe distance.<\/p>\n<p>It can be hard for boats and swimmers to get through these cross-seas because they can make waves up to 10 feet high and change the way the wind blows.<\/p>\n<p>Again, this is very unlikely to happen, but if it does, don\u2019t go out on a boat or swim in the water, because it might be rough.<\/p>\n<p>You could instead spend your time sitting on the sand or taking a quick dip in the shallow water until the weather is better. Then you can go into the water safely and without crowds.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happens if you get caught in a square wave?<\/h2>\n<p>When you\u2019re in the water, you might not notice that the waves are arranged in a grid, but you might notice that the swells get bigger and you have to swim against two different currents.<\/p>\n<p>Not swimming out so far in the first place is best, and getting out of the water as soon as the waves get too big is also best.<\/p>\n<p>More often than not, boats and ships farther out are in danger from square waves, so stay in the shallows to stay safe.<\/p>\n<p>Please SHARE this with Family and Friends to ensure their safety!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Going on a trip to the beach is what holiday dreams are made of.
