Tsunami is a tidal wave. That's why it gets into the land in the first place. It's a mass of water pushed like with a hurricane. It is not just a single wave, or a few waves. Even if it is relatively small, it will flood.

Ko3, that is one of the strangest Google Earth images I've ever seen!!

For those who haven't seen it, here it is on Google Maps:
Ocean anomaly

The center of the anomaly is 1/3 mile off shore. The large ripples are probably the sea floor, not the ocean surface. But the smaller ripples emanating out from the anomaly are clearly on the ocean surface and seem to extend east at least 2 miles. Small swells only travel about 3 miles an hour, so this anomaly had been generating waves for about 40 minutes.

Perhaps it's a very low island off shore? It couldn't be due to an earthquake because that would mean it was rumbling for 40 minutes - which is unheard of. Also, it wouldn't create waves that small.

Good catch!

a future 'blue hole' perhaps? It may be a little close to shore but there are straws to be grasped at and I'm doing my best. Here's a picture of Belize's famous blue hole:

That could be hydrogen gas that found a crack to seep up from, if you look closer you can see bubble signatures.that would be my Guess.

This is what the map looks like now:

They got hit pretty bad, imo. So many quakes, and two magnitude +7.5 within a few hours!
