The Foamy Spectacle in Beautiful Yamba

The New South Wales area of Australia is full of jaw-dropping spectacles that can leave the visitor reeling in shock. Take the foam that bombarded Yamba coast in 2007 and 2009 for instance. For a region that is ranked among the top surfing destinations in the country, surfers and beach goers were caught by surprise when the blue waters turned into one foamy substance. It stamped the strongly held belief that while in Yamba, get ready for good surprises that will make your holiday worth writing home about.

A large chunk of the shoreline on this town in the northern side of Sydney was swallowed up by the strange foam which did not even spare half the buildings in the area. The foam which made the ocean resemble more of cappuccino was a phenomenon that was blamed on the wild weather that the Pacific Ocean can whip up at times. The adventurous locals and tourists had a good time immersing themselves in the frothy substance that was so massive that a person could float in it.

Yamba is famed as one of the top holiday destinations in the country and the sheer numbers of visitors who flock to it all year round are testament to this.Nicely tucked at the mouth of Clarence River, it enjoys beautiful weather and attractions that tempt visitors to extend their stay. So when this natural phenomenon came, it was a nice surprise for the adventurous persons. The foamy waves stretched more than fifty metres from the Yamba Life Saving Club, creating an ideal environment for the daring.

The local scientists associated the foam with organic materials’ remains such as seaweed and planktons that had been broken up on rocks. The dissolved organic materials in the ocean create something that resembles a ‘bubble bath’ which then is stirred up by the strong winds. This stirring is further made even stronger by the waves to whip the foam to metres above the surface and to make it overflow on dry land close by. Although the organic materials can come from large concentration of biomass, it has also been linked with sewer spills and other substances that flow into the ocean.

While here, be sure to pick an excellent accommodation Yamba NSW option are world class.
