The design of low cost beach protection structures is improved by reliable estimation of the risk of failure. This paper uses data recorded off a coastal town in Queensland Australia and recent developments in modelling multivariate distributions of extremes to estimate probabilities of the extreme events of wave height, water level and wave steepness.
