Bombora

Bombora is an indigenous Australian term for large sea waves breaking over submerged rock shelves. The danger posed by these formations can be higher in good weather as a bombora may not be identifiable because it may not always have breaking waves. Boaters need to be cautious anywhere bomboras may exist.
