An S wave is slower than a P wave and only moves through solid rock. This wave moves rock up and down, or side-to-side. Because P waves are compression waves, they can move through a liquid. However, S waves cannot move through a liquid. This is because a liquid is not rigid enough to transmit an S wave.
When two sides of a fault line under water move against each other slip. One side moves upwards and the other downwards. This causes a massive movement of water outwards which results in a tidal wave. Tsunamis occur after an earthquake. The earthquake can occur under a city (ex. The New Madrid Missouri fault line; or the Los Angeles area's fault lines), but many occur on the ocean or sea floor.
