It looked like a dynamite explosion at first. 
Great shot!
Yes, also detail and color information got lost.
Left Capture one, right darktable 3.4.

Hi, I’m new! Thought I might as well start playing with this amazing picture. 
I think this image benefits from a 4:3 crop. Makes the splash more prominent and leaves only one tree for scale. I also cropped away the kind of distracting pool of water in the lower right corner.

Deceivingly Fun!

Bit too blue, so I added a second white balance on top of as-shot to scooch the blue channel left. Bit of denoise, and voila. In rawproc:

Deceivingly difficult, I though it wouldn’t be so hard to match your processing but I did not manage to match some aspects of it at all ! Your processing is really heavy handed on the fine detail enhancement and the noise reduction is interfering with some of the wave crashing details.
This exercise as been difficult and I made extensive use of modules in multiple instances with hybrid masking (parametric+curved gradient)

After trying to mimic your result I gave it a shot just for the fun and discovered an hidden rainbow in your shot (bottom left of the image)
Here is my version
