General Notes
Conclusions are that the area studied has an offshore energy rich wave climate which has the advantage for wave power applications of exhibiting relatively small inter-seasonal changes. Nearer the coasts, wave energy is still reasonably high, but seasonality is somewhat stronger due to island sheltering and seasonal changes in the dominant wind direction.
