A storm beach is a Beach affected by particularly fierce Wave s, usually with a very long Fetch . The effect is most often a very steep beach (up to 45°) made out of Shingle or occasionly Sand . The shingle variety usually has an obvious Grading of Pebble s, from large to small, along the beach. A particularly famous textbook example is the 18- Mile long Chesil Beach in Dorset , England . It is also a Tombolo connecting the Isle Of Portland to the Mainland West of the Resort of Weymouth . |
