Wave-power plant where the waves are guiding water into a basin, and where power is produced when water flows back into the sea through a turbine. The basin exhibits a bottom (4) positioned at least several typical wave heights down into the water, a rear wall (3), two side walls (2), a front wall (1) fronting the waves, and for larger plants, at least one partition wall (5) dividing the basins into several smaller basins. The front wall (1) and one or more division walls (5) are covered by apertures provided with check-valves (6) to allow through flow toward rear basin (14) providing water to at least one turbine (8). The basin can rest with its bottom (4) directly upon the seabed (13), and in deeper waters, above the seabed with the bottom (4) of the basin also being covered by apertures exhibiting check valves (6) for flow into the basin.
