Explosive waves at Shore Acres State Park, famous for decades, are best seen during winter storms, when the sea generates 25- to 40-foot swells. "...The waves break against the reclining slab, spray high into the hollow, its final fury spent against the mother bluff. Spray fifty feet in the air accompanied by the roar of the breakers will long linger in your memory. For seascape photographers, the Rembrandt of the sea awaits the click of your camera." [Samuel Boardman, first State Parks superintendent, 1956]
