I made some minor tests today which showed me that I was on the false path.
I had to watch your clip once, twice, a lot of times ...
... the only thing that could be improved is the scale of the waves relative to the foam. For this amount of foam, the waves' scale is too small. Else it is a better than most parts of the other clips you linked to.
The scale of the dreamscape clip - at least the first few seconds - is a real beauty.
