Yeah that's a wave bro. Notice how the ocean rises above it's own typical sea level? That's not water "filling in a gap" the way tides do it as sea level changes.
That's a huge ass wave as it's a pulse traveling on top of the ocean, above sea level.
That's what it is like out at sea. There's a reason tsunamis are referred to as "tidal waves." For example, watch this video of a tsunami hitting a port today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1B1J6sgFxk
