IMHO, it's really just an eddy behind the breakwater seen at upper right
in the video. It's not a "whirlpool" such as that created by the
bathtub drain.

Hi,
Anyone out there in Ecologland able to explain the vortex off the coast of
Japan after the Tsunami.
I am not familiar with the phenomenon and I thought someone with knowledge
in this area might
know how this was created and if it was likely to be a dangerous thing or
just a spectacle.
Thanks for the info.
If you don't know what I am speaking of, here is footage!
