Have you ever tried to see the shape of waves? Usually, they are horizontal or vertical, but except this, waves are also generated in other shapes which are square, making it the most dangerous in terms of waves. This event is referred to as the Cross Sea, also known as a squared sea or square waves, occurring occasionally near the coastline. It forms a chessboard-like pattern on the surface of the water. Square waves are not generated by any of the underwater conditions, rather, they are the result of the way the water moves. When the waves form at different angles, a unique pattern emerges.
It is such a natural phenomenon that is not seen everywhere all the time as it is formed only at the places where two seas meet or cross, hence the name Cross Sea. For the formation of these square waves, it is very important for both the sea waves to be strong. These waves are visible only in two or three places in the world as there is a special place where you can watch these waves being formed, that is an island on the west coast of France, named Isle of Ré. You will not get to see this wonderful sight in other cross seas, because square waves in the ocean are actually quite rare and are formed in a suitable condition. This is one of the most beautiful rare phenomena of nature, and if you try to follow this stunning sight, then you can even put your life in danger.
Yes, square waves that look quite fascinating from above are actually very dangerous. The current of the waves below the surface is so strong that diving in it means risking your life. Square waves are formed from the intersection of two seas perpendicular to one another, resulting in these waves turning into powerful rip currents, making them extremely dangerous. If you get caught in such waves, there would be no way out for you, because in such a situation a person can die in minutes. Therefore, on seeing such a wave, retrace your steps from there and try to reach the shore.
