Explanation:
_IslandMask – use 4 channel:
.r – use this for select an areas where do you want to have the foam.
.g – use this for light and color information
.b – use this for select an areas where do you want to have the waves.
.a – for alpha
_WaveNormal - use this for a wave, color and specular effects.This is an example, you can make your own texture, also you need to add foam.
