why is my body still able to feel the motion of waves after having left the beach?

this mostly occurs right before i am about to fall asleep.

Our brains are very good at compensating when external stimulus throws us off. There are great experiments, for example, showing how our brains will gradually adjust to wearing special goggles with mirrors that flip everything the wrong way. Over time, the brain adjusts.

The brain also adjusts to coping with the ups and downs of being out at sea. However, that compensation also takes time to go away. When you're lying in bed feeling the ups and downs, you're still experiencing the compensation mechanism before it fades away.
