swashing
Waves hitting loudly
Swashing describes something that splashes, dashes, or moves with a sweeping, swaggering motion.
Water swashes against a hull or shore.
The word also captures the flamboyant, blustering quality of a swashbuckler—bold and showy in movement or manner: the swashing sound of waves, a swashing blow with a sword.
