LEARN MORE ************** To learn more about this topic, start your googling with these keywords: - Jetty: a breakwater constructed to protect or defend a harbor, stretch of coast, or riverbank. - Rip current: a relatively strong, narrow current flowing outward from the beach through the surf zone and presenting a hazard to swimmers. - Rip tide: a strong current caused by tidal flow in confined areas such as inlets and presenting a hazard to swimmers and boaters. A similar but distinct phenomenon often confused for a rip current. - Sandbar: a deposit of sand forming a shallow area in the sea or a river. - Surf zone: the area of the ocean where waves break near the shoreline. - Undertow: a current of water below the surface and moving in a different direction from any surface current. Also distinct from a rip current. - Wave Set Up: elevation of the mean water level at the shoreline due to wave breaking in the surf zone.
