Replaced my seawall maybe 3 years ago with wood. About 4 feet high max. Not on a point or high wave lot. It was way lower than the numbers you are hearing here. But, big but,,, it does not get pounded by water/waves.
I looked at wood/concrete/block/rock/etc at the time, and decided on wood, for my finances and lifespan.
I also looked at a composite/vinyl/poly sheet product being used in walls at the Gulf, some 20 feet high. Interlocking panels anchored into the foundation and the backfill. I never found a local to talk about it, but it seemed like a good alternative to me. Probably not pretty, but at 5 feet, you must pile up rip-rap in front anyway. Just a thought.
