A time-independent finite difference method is used to study the nonlinear viscous waves passing through submerged and floating breakwaters. The fully nonlinear kinematic free surface conditions and dynamic conditions are considered in the analysis. The surface tension effect is expected to be small and is neglected in the study. The numerical scheme is firstly validated by reported numerical results. The numerical results are then reported for various dimensions (depth and length) of breakwaters. The effects of floating and submerged breakwaters on wave reductions are, then, concluded:
