The science behind the world’s most dangerous waves
Hawaiian islands are geographically isolated from the rest of the world. It’s 2470 miles away from California. It is completely surrounded by the ocean, which causes the violent waves the sport thrives on. Peʻahi is a place on the north shore of the island of Maui. It is home to the Jaws surf break and has also lived up to its reputation for some of the most dangerous, and merciless waves in the world. Waves as long as 70 ft., which is as tall as a 7-story building, have been often observed here.

Just imagine a bowl of water put in front of a fan, creating waves in the bowl itself. The same logic applies to the waves at Jaws. The popular violent waves are created by raging storms in the Pacific. The name Jaws is earned by the deadly waves as opposed to the unpredictability of a shark attack.
