The experimental results of wave run-up and overtopping on coastal dikes with a steep seaside slope are presented. Wave run-up heights are calculated by regarding to the crest height of standing wave m none breaking zone and to the reflected bore height m breaking zone. The calculated values indicate good agreement with the experimental results. As for wave overtopping, the experimental results are mainly discussed with regard to the effect of wave breaker to overtopping phenomena.
