This paper presents a geometric model of breaking waves. In this model, there are three amplitude coefficient functions and two phase functions. The functions are all unknown ones concerning surf similarity parameter (xi) . Genetic Algorithms is used to obtain the optimum solution of the model for a certain wave pattern, and all unknown functions simulating several wave patterns. Experiment result has proved that Genetic Algorithms are very successful for modeling breaking waves.
