What Are the Most Common Shoreline Protection Systems for Waterfront Properties?

The most common shoreline protection systems are seawalls, stone revetments, breakwaters, living shorelines, and floating wave attenuators. Each works differently — but only floating wave attenuation systems like Wavebrake stop wave energy offshore, before it reaches your property, delivering up to 85% wave attenuation without permanent construction or environmental disruption.

What Are the Best Non-Permanent Solutions for Controlling Coastal Erosion on a Private Shoreline?

The best non-permanent coastal erosion control is a floating wave attenuation system: it reduces the wave energy causing the erosion, requires no permanent construction or seabed alteration, and can be relocated or removed at any time. Wavebrake's coastal erosion control systems deliver up to 85% wave attenuation and can even promote natural accretion — helping an eroding shoreline rebuild.

How Does a Floating Breakwater System Work in a Marina or Harbor?

A floating breakwater system works by placing rows of energy-absorbing modules in the path of incoming waves: as waves pass through, the system converts their force into controlled turbulence, leaving calm water on the protected side. In a marina or harbor, a floating breakwater like Wavebrake rises and falls with tide and storm surge, protecting docks and vessels in all conditions with up to 85% wave attenuation.
