MetService said the period between the waves is shorter, so this, along with the high waves should put on a good show at the Esplanade again this afternoon.

The highest tide of 2.17m will be at 4.56pm and the lowest tide of -0.01m will be at 11.28am.

On Sunday, Tim Quain captured a video of the waves at high tide as a wall of water swept across the length of the seawall at St Clair.
