Answer:

The wall acts as a dissipator for the energy of the ocean waves.

That is why on some coasts to reduce the force with which the waves collide on the shore, breakwaters are made to stop said maritime energy.

Explanation:

That is why this wall, if it is well built, acts as a barrier and stops the waves dissipating it with less energy on the maritime coast.
