Surfing Waves

i cant tell the difference between a reefbreak, pointbreak, and a beachbreak?.....ive seen pictures on each and they all look the same

Here's an explaination with a diagram - https://surfing-waves.com/peeling_waves.htm

Waves appear in various forms such as water waves, light waves and sound waves.The basic definition of a wave is the displacement of energy propagating along a medium.the general types of waves: longitudinal and transverse waves.cause the medium to move perpendicular to the direction of the wave.Longitudinal waves cause the medium to move parallel to the direction of the wave.Surface waves are both transverse waves and longitudinal waves mixed in one medium.Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel (light, radio).
