A tidal wave, often referred to as a tsunami, can last from a few minutes to several hours, depending on various factors such as the size of the wave and the geographical features of the coastline. The initial wave may come and go quickly, but subsequent waves can continue to arrive over a period of time. Each wave in a tsunami series can vary in height and intensity. It's important to note that the term "tidal wave" is a misnomer, as tsunamis are not caused by tides but rather by underwater disturbances.
