A system for controlling a motion compensated pile guide for a floating vessel comprises a pile guide for guiding a monopile in its longitudinal direction during driving the monopile into a seabed, an actuator for moving the pile guide in horizontal direction with respect to a vessel to which the pile guide is mounted, a control unit for controlling the actuator, which control unit is configured for compensating motion of the vessel to which the pile guide is mounted so as to maintain the horizontal position of the pile guide during driving a monopile into a seabed, a first sensor for determining an inclination angle of a monopile with respect to the vertical during driving the monopile into a seabed, and a second sensor for determining magnitude and direction of an actual force of a monopile onto the pile guide during driving the monopile into a seabed. The control unit is configured to determine a desired force of the pile guide onto the monopile for minimizing the inclination angle when determined by the first sensor, and to control the actuator for moving the pile guide opposite to the direction of the actual force when the desired force is larger than the actual force and in the same direction as the actual force when the actual force is larger than the desired force.
