Anytime the brain gets conflicting inputs about motion
this problem can occur, but it doesn't seem to affect
everyone. Some of the "flight simulator" type rides
at places like disney world have the same effect,
because your brain is being told you're
falling/flying/turning based on some inputs, but not
by others.
So if your inner ear says your rolling on the waves,
but your eye says you're not, the brain gets confused.
I wonder if opening the other eye would help?
