That phenomenon is called "surf" or "Surfing." It occurs when waves reach shallow water near the shoreline, break, and create a foamy, turbulent water movement that rushes up the beach.

How are constructive formed?

When waves of long wave length and low height approach a gently sloping beach, the ellipse becomes horizontal. When the waves break, the swash sweeps up the beach as a sheet of water often reaching the upper beach. Most of the swash soaks into the beach which means that there is very little backwash. Waves of this type are called constructive or spilling waves.
