    • Coasts in Northern Ireland

      Discover more about the role of waves in shaping Northern Ireland's coast and the types of coastal management employed in Newcastle County Down.

    • Coastal management

      Coastlines are being eroded by waves and the weather. Coastlines need to be managed because they are often used by humans for purposes such as housing.

    • Coastal landforms

      Coastal landforms created by erosion include headlands, bays and cliffs. Landforms created by deposition include spits, salt marshes and beaches.

    • Coastal processes

      The coast is the zone between land and sea. The action of the waves and the sea constantly changes the shape and form of the coast, and people manage these changes in different ways.
