Why is the beach so rocky?


Why is the beach so rocky? Rocky beaches occur where coastal cliffs erode and crumble into large rock deposits along the the shoreline, blocking the build up of smaller, sandy sediment.


What are the big rocks on the beach called?

A sea stack is defined as a steep rock formation that's detached from the mainland by the ocean. For this list, I considered big rocks of all kinds that are relatively close to shore.
