The octubre 23th of 2005 the Wilma hurricane live the water near of Cuba, despite being more than 200 km in the Gulf of Mexico, he left his footprints in Havana. It is e necessity to protect the city form the attack of the hurricanes and other severe events, for that reason several studies in order to kwon the behavior of the flooding have been done. In this paper are presented the formulas to compute the average wave overtopping, it is define the wave characteristics by mean a train of numerical modelthat allow to obtain the hydrographs to force the Iber model, and were donedifferent flooding simulation of the study area, it allow define the location with more hazard.

Keywords : hurricanes; coastal flooding; iber model; wave.
