Coast (littoral or coastal) is defined as where land and sea borders. [1] The exact boundary is called the coastline, but this factor is difficult to determine due to the influenceof the tide. The term "coastal zone" is also used to replace the coast because it refers to an area of occurrence of the interaction between sea and land.
