Waves hit the shore many times per minute, but it varies so greatly. The wind changing can result in a change of this number. Any storms out in the ocean can change it as well.

Why do waves in a lake always appear to be moving toward the shore no matter where you stand on land?

Think about it. Its a lake. The waves have to move towards shore. The real answer is that boats that you dont see further out on the lake make waves that hit all sides of the lake and will travel the full length of the lake, no matter what size.


Along what does longshore currents transport sediment?

Waves approach a shore obliquely (at an angle) due to the effects or the tides, currents the coriolis effect etc. and then retreat due to gravity straight. A good analogue is to roll a marble up a slope at an angle; it will fall more linearly on its return. Hope this helps.
