You know Alaska’s bore tide in Turnagain Arm is one of the biggest in the world? It can reach up to 10 feet tall, making for some epic surfing in the 49th state. 🏄‍♀️ Tidal bores happen when an incoming high tide meets an extreme low tide in a narrow inlet, and this one is the only bore this far north - and the only one bordered by mountains. Surfers ride the wave while it rushes through the arm, and it’s truly unlike anything else on Earth. If you’re just visiting Alaska, you’ll need some luck
