The disclosure relates generally to a wave energy harvester, comprising: a housing locatable aboard a floating platform; an armature coil fixedly mounted to the housing, the armature coil having a magnet associated therewith; and a body travelable along a track located within an interior of the housing, the body being coupled to the magnet; wherein, in use, wave-induced periodic motion of the floating platform results in reciprocating travel of the body along the track, with the travel of the body driving movement of the magnet with respect to the armature coil to thereby generate electricity.
