The features of vortical suppression of tsunami waves by an impermeable underwater barrier have been studied. The height of the barrier is close to the optimum corresponding to the maximum effect of vortical suppression of the wave energy. It is shown that the energy of suppressing tsunami waves by such a barrier depends on the wave height and can vary from zero to 80% of the incident wave energy.
