This is a list of beaches of the world, sorted by country. A
beach is a
landform along the
shoreline of an ocean, sea, lake, or river. It usually consists of loose particles, which are often composed of
rock , such as
sand ,
gravel ,
shingle ,
pebbles , or
cobblestones . Beaches typically occur in areas along the coast where
wave or
current action
deposits and reworks sediments. The particles comprising a beach are occasionally biological in origin, such as
mollusc shells or
coralline algae .
