Large freak waves hit Sliema seafront this evening in what was a repetition of two mysterious incidents last year.

Large waves hit the area of Sliema pitch for about an hour from 7 p.m., sending people scurrying and washing away beach furniture.

The waves last year caused considerable damage to an assembled waterpolo pitch.
