Beachwatcher Mickey Mouse struggles to save Minnie Mouse, in danger of drowning, because of unusually wild waves (hence the title). Once she is finally safe on the shore, Mickey tries to cheer the sad girl up with an impromptu musical performance helped by the various beach animals (including dancing pelicans and a baritone walrus).
Behind the scenes[]
This cartoon short was released in 1929 in black and white, and later colorized. It is partially a remake of the earlier Oswald Rabbit short All Wet, and footage from Wild Waves was again lifted for The Castaway.
