Numerical simulations describing plunging breakers including the splash-up phenomenon are presented. The motion is governed by the classical, incompressible, two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation. The numerical modelling of this two-phase flow is based on a piecewise linear version of the volume of fluid method. Preliminary results concerning the time evolution of the liquid-gas interface and the vorticity field are given for short waves, showing how an initial steep wave undergoes breaking and successive splash-up cycles.
