A multi-point mooring system 1 for mooring a floating platform 3. The multi-point mooring system 1 comprises three submerged buoyant bodies 17 and a first decouplable coupling 25, 27 which is attached to each submerged buoyant body. A mooring line 19 is attached to each submerged buoyant body and to a fixed subsea mooring point 21. Two tethering lines 23 are attached to each submerged buoyant body, wherein each submerged buoyant body is attached to another submerged buoyant body by a first tethering line and to another different submerged buoyant body by a second tethering line. Each submerged buoyant body is provided with sufficient buoyancy to maintain a position in the water column that is beneath the wave excitation zone when the decouplable couplings are not coupled to a floating platform.
