Sea foam is a natural, bubbly froth formed when ocean waves agitate dissolved organic matter (proteins, fats, algae, bacteria) in seawater, creating persistent bubbles, similar to soap suds. It's a sign of a productive ocean ecosystem, often from decaying algae, and is generally harmless but can sometimes impact birds by ruining feather waterproofing. #seafoam #naturelovers #pacificcity #beachlife #healthyliving | Oregon Coast Explored
