In the present diploma thesis, a comparative study of experimental measurements of the primary characteristics of sea waves in the area of Sfakia, Crete is presented. The conduct of the experiment was made possible by the use of a special measuring device, which was located off the port of Sfakia for a total 2 years period of time. Meanwhile, information and data were selected from meteorological estimates of the wave height, frequency and direction at the same time period. The purpose of this study is the collection of the experimental data and their comparison with the estimates of the meteorological computational models of wave distributions. In addition, the variation/alteration of the wave events during time is observed as well as the variations that occur on different seasons, and significant wave events are noted.
