This work retrieves some novel exact solutions to the family of 3D space-time fractional Wazwaz– Benjamin–Bona–Mahony (WBBM) equations in the context of diverse nonlinear physical phenomena resulting from water wave mechanics. The family of WBBM equations is transformed for this purpose using a space and time fractional transformation into an ordinary differential equation (ODE). The ODE then uses a strong method, namely the Unified Method. Consequently, lump solutions, dark-bright soliton, singular and multiple soliton solutions, and periodic solutions are investigated. The disparities between the current study's conclusions and previously acquired solutions via other approaches are examined. All wave solutions produced are determined to be novel in terms of fractionality, unrestricted parameters, and implemented technique sense. The impact of unrestricted parameters and fractionality on the obtained solutions are visually presented, along with physical explanations. It is observed that the wave portents are varied with the increase of unrestricted parameters as well as fractionality. Finally, we dynamically showed that the appropriate transformation and the applied Unified approach more proficient in the study of water wave dynamics and might be used in future researches to clarify the many physical phenomena.
