Since you cannot prevent tsunamis, the approach to minimizing damage might be:

- not allowing any settlement, commercial activity, or building of any sort within a defined flood plain along the shoreline. Obviously that is _not_ going to be a popular option.

- building very, very tall barriers along the ocean. These could be built a slight distance away from the shore, with gates in them to allow people access to the beaches. As the recent tsunami in Japan showed, however, you probably need to build them twice as high as you think you will ever need. The Japanese tsunami overtopped their walls in an instant.

- building structures to deflect the wave energy into specific places or directions where it will cause less damage.

- building structures to absorb the energy (I have no idea what those might be, or how you would absorb the enormous energy contained within a tsunami wave).

During an earthquake that may lead to a tsunami, it is recommended that a person finds something to seek shelter under and hold on to. When the earthquake is over, a person should seek higher ground.
