beach

n. shore, seaside; land alongside a body of water with sand

v. go up onto the beach, go onto the shore; bring a boat to a beach or to shore

A beach, or strand, is a geological landform consisting of loose rock particles - such as sand, gravel, shingle, pebbles, cobble - or even shell fragments, along the shoreline of a body of water. Beaches occur along coastal areas, where wave or current action deposits and reworks sediments, or at the margin of land along a lake or river subject to erosion caused by rainfall.
