Expert describes southern Indian Ocean as a cauldron of foam and white caps


Treacherous seas: Huge waves crashing into a landing stage in the French Reunion island in the Indian Ocean. Heavy seas, pouring rain and low cloud are a daily occurrence in the ocean, especially during the winter season.

IT’S a terrible place. And when winter comes – like it has now – the southern Indian Ocean has been described as the worst place in the world.
