Shore
Shoreline redirects here. For the indie band, see Shoreline (Indie Band). For the city, see Shoreline, Washington A shore or shoreline is the fringe of land at the edge of a large body of water, such as an oceansea, or lake.Shores are influenced by the topography of the surrounding landscape, as well as by water induced erosion, such as waves. The geological composition of rock and soil dictates the type of shore which is created. Although a beach is a synonym for a shore, the term typically refers to shores which are sandy or pebbly, which can be produced by erosion of sedimentary soils.
