Pafos Area, some waves can be as high as 3 meters.

By the way similar (patented) system already in the works in Cyprus.

Thanks for the link.
My device is not about producing electricity using wave power but direct desalination for mainly irrigation purposes (vegetable crops, golf courses etc). Potable grade water requires a min of 800 psi threshold pressure and the yield is only 40%, having the rest inflow returned to the sea as brine. Irrigation grade can have moderate salinity levels (below 2%) which can be tolerated by certain species of plants. The pressure can be approx 250 psi thus 4x water production...

Cyprus is considered a semi-arid country. Water is extremely important.
Other countries are totally arid (Saudi Arabia, the emirates etc).

Footnote. Year 300BC: The island of Cyprus was abandoned for 17 years. Reason = drought, no rain at all. History will repeat it self... comments?

Cyprus is always ready for the latest innovations. The last one was 10,000 years ago

Happy new year to all CF mebers from Toronto, Canada.

I am working on a prototype machine using the wave energy (onshore).
I am looking for a spot where waves are splashing into rocks, not a beach.
Where can I test this? I need the biggest waves possible.
Thanks for your responses in advance.

You can get some dramatic waves hitting rocks by Aphrodite's Rock. But, if you are keen on the Polis area then drive along the coastal road from Polis towards Kokkina and there are many cliff edges with rocky coastline where the waves are particularly energetic this time of the year. Even at Pomos Bay you'll get waves a few metres high.

Cyprus has surf?

Can you surf, because I don't see too much activity that can wipeout an Aussie surf junkie?

Nice vid! Didn't realize Cyprus can be renowned for surfing!

Cyprus now ticks another box. However, I hate how you need to wait for a storm in order to get 3m waves!

Anyway, it's much easier pleasing some Frenchies....
