Солнце,море и песчаный пляж это все делает идеальный отдых. Отдых на пляже это очень хороший праздник для многих людей,но знаешь ли ты как появились пляжи? Обычно они располагаются в прибережной полосе. Пляжам нужны тысячи лет,чтобы сформироваться. Море и ветер сделать их. Волны врезаются в скалистые берега, откалывают их,тем самым превращая в камни,а потом в гальку. Со временем волны размалывают камешки в песок.
Есть много типов пляжей. Каждый из этих пляжей имеет свою особенность,которая делает его уникальным. Есть пляжи с черным или зеленым песком, это результат извержения вулканов. Другие же имеют розовый или белый песок,который исходит от кораллов. Также есть каменистые пляжи, пляжи изобилующие ракушками они покрыты галькой. И наконец, есть пляжи с прекрасными песчаными холмами,напоминающие нам пустыни. Их называют дюнами.
