Abstract This paper studies incipient wave breaking in 225 hydraulic model test results. The measured values of breaking wave height are compared with earlier data and earlier expressions. It is found that the present measured values are substantially lower, because the tests used irregular waves on a natural beach. These results are more representative of field conditions and should bring about selection of lower values for design breaking wave height. The paper provides some relatively simple expressions to calculate breaking wave height.
