In this research has been simulated model of the dynamics of wave energy and its distribution in local scale spatially and temporally. Model study area located in the waters of southern Java with geographical location of 105o – 115o E and 6.7o – 9.7o S. The wave energy potential in study area was researched using Simulating Wave Nearshore (SWAN) model with wind and bathymetry as input data. This study was conducted by twice nesting to obtain reliable boundary value in study area during December, 1 2013 until November, 30 2014. The simulation results are significant wave height and energy transport over study area. The significant wave height (Hs) from numerical model is validated by in situ measurement using buoy data from Baron Station, Yogyakarta. The validation indicates good correlation between simulated Hs with the buoy measurement with error approximaely 8%. The SWAN model result shows the wave energy at offshore greater than near shore with average annual wave energy transport approximately 35-50 kW/m at offshore and 10-45 kW/m at nearshore. Seasonal variability indicates that the highest wave energy value occurs during June, July, and August (JJA) and the lowest during March, April, and May (MAM).
