One example of a waterway with reversing flow would be the estuary of a river.  
While the tide is rising, the flow in the estuary may slow, come to a 
standstill, or even temporarily reverse directions (called a tidal bore).
Surely most estuaries reverse direction with an incoming tide, especially close to the sea?

A tidal bore is a specific phenomenon (a step change in the water depth, moving upstream), and is not simply a reversal of direction:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tidal_bore
