The energy of every nuke in the world combined is trivial compared to the energy of your average tsunami-causing earthquake or volcanic collapse.

So no, you can't cause a tsunami with nukes, unless you happened to be RIGHT NEXT to where it went off, and you have plenty of other problems to worry about then. You can't create a noticeable wave over hundreds of miles.
