Answer:

Yes the Tsunami waves get slow as they reach the shore.

Explaination :

As the waves approach the coast, their wavelength decreases and wave height increases. On the open ocean, the wavelength of a tsunami may be as much as two hundred kilometers, many times greater than the ocean depth, which is on the order of a few kilometers. ... Tsunamis slow down but grow in size as they come ashore.
