The space whereupon lands meets
sea is known as the littoral zone. As can be seen from the photograph, many
activities occur along the coast, whether it is embarrassing picture-taking,
sailing or sight-seeing. The existence of this strip of land, or shoreline, allows
for people to delve into the waters in whatever way they choose while allowing
the possibility of a return to shore. In
interacting with the ocean, we impinge on the land, often at times this contact
being more negative than good. Everything washes onto shore eventually, the
shore itself baring testament to this as a product of the forces of
aggradation. Sadly, it is a waste as well as humanity’s loss that harmful waste
and garbage continue to be the result of our contact with nature.
