The shape of the rock is not caused by a wave phenomenon , rather its rounded wave-like shape was formed by subsurface chemical weathering followed by removal of the soft weathered granite by fluvial erosion, thus the weathering occurred below ground level before it was exposed. The end result is an undercut base, leaving a rounded overhang.
Stack is a tall narrow rock formed from was erosion.
The large Kiama blowhole was formed by a dyke in the rock, it was eroded by wave action, the rock then collapsed, and the tunnel formed

Wave Rock, in Western Australia, was believed to have been formed by the combination of chemical weathering in the subsurface, before Wave Rock was even fully exposed, together with gradual fluvial erosion of the softer granite beneath the upper surface.

formed when wave action continues to erode a sea cave, cutting completely through a rock
