A point absorber wave energy conversion apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus 1 can harness energy from wave motion on the surface of a body of liquid 2, and has small dimensions with respect to the wavelength of the predominant wave. The apparatus comprises at least two devices 3, 4, each device comprising a surface float 5, 6 and at least one submerged body 9, 10 below the surface 11 of the body of liquid. The devices feature linkages 7, 8 between them, wherein the devices are adapted to move relative to one another in response to passing waves, and the relative movement between the devices effects an energy transfer which may be harnessed by the linkages between the devices.
