Abstract. The problem of the occurrence of dangerous storm surges in the port of Pionersky of the Kaliningrad regionin the conditions of its reconstruction is considered. It is established that the rise of the water level in the port (surge)occurs as a result of the entry into it of drift and wave portable currents arising from winds in the C–B sector and directedalong the northern pier. Calculations of the height of the storm surge in the port of Pionersky in calculated stormswithout additional culverts were performed. To reduce the pressure level, special culverts are proposed, which are laidin protective structures. The parameters of these structures are calculated.

Keywords: storm surge, drift currents, wave and gradient currents, culverts, non-pressure and pressure flow modes
