The respective floating structures (100) comprise: a body (10) consisting of a floating floor (12) and a side wall (14) extended down from a perimeter of the floating floor (12); and a floating member (20) connected to the floating floor (12) of said body (10) in order to support said body (10) for submerging in the water. Said floating member (20) comprises a wave baffle (22) having at least one part of the baffle (22) located above the water-surface level, wherein said wave baffle (22) of said floating member (20) comprises a surface formed as a vertical plane and inclined at an acute angle with respect to a line extended along the length of said body (10) as viewed from above. Each pair of said floating structures (100) is fixed together such that a passageway (E) is formed as a wave passage. Said structure further comprises: a float (50, 60,70) attached to the rear of said floating structures (100) for attenuating the wave passed through said passageway (E). Said float (50, 60,70) comprises a floatable body (61, 71), and a support plate (68,78) in the form of a flat plate (68,78) located below the water surface and underneath said body (10) in order to assist in stabilization of said float (50, 60,70). In one embodiment of the present invention, the body (10) of [Continued on next page] WO 2019/151958 Al HINIONOIMEIMEMEIHMEDIEEMOHMEIHRIMEMMOHE UG, ZM, ZW), Eurasian (AM, AZ, BY, KG, KZ, RU, TJ, TM), European (AL, AT, BE, BG, CH, CY, CZ, DE, DK, EE, ES, FI, FR, GB, GR, HR, HU, IE, IS, IT, LT, LU, LV, MC, MK, MT, NL, NO, PL, PT, RO, RS, SE, SI, SK, SM, TR), OAPI (BF, BJ, CF, CG, CI, CM, GA, GN, GQ, GW, KM, ML, MR, NE, SN, TD, TG).
