Coast - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1040 words)
The coast is defined as the part of the land adjoining or near the ocean.
The coast and its adjacent areas on and off shore is an important part of a local ecosystem as the mixture of fresh water and salt water in estuaries provides many nutrients for marine life.
Coasts are popular destinations because of recreational activities such as swimming, fishing, surfing, boating, and sun bathing.
