“…Surfing reefs have peculiar planar structures. For example, Yoshida et al (1991) and Nakano et al (1994) proposed a delta-shaped artificial surfing reef. Furthermore, most of the proposed surfing reefs have an inclined crown, which is one of the common features of surfing reefs, in order to generate suitable breakers for surfing.…”

Beach protection facilities are sometimes required to harmonize with coastal environments and utilizations. This study investigates some hydraulic functions of artificial reef which has an inclined crown. The reef is expected to protect beaches against storm waves, and also facilitates surfing activities under normal wave conditions. This study focuses on wave energy dissipation by the reef, generation of suitable wave breakers for surfing and wave setup behind the reef.
