Best Answer

about every four years

Tsunamis typically occur about every six years in the Pacific Ocean, and most often during March, August, and November. Although sometimes called tidal waves, tsunamis are created not by tides but by seismic movements (earthquakes), which produce chains of waves that move across the water at terrific speeds of more than 500 miles per hour.
