It forms a beach.
The energy of waves traveling in water can affect a shoreline by causing erosion or deposition of sediment. Powerful waves can erode the shoreline by removing sand and other materials, leading to coastal retreat. Conversely, waves can also deposit sediment, building up beaches and extending the shoreline.
Waves affect a shoreline by carrying and depositing sediments, which can contribute to erosion or accretion depending on the wave energy and direction. Strong waves can erode the shoreline by carrying away sediments, while gentler waves may deposit sediments, leading to beach formation.
Waves typically affect the shoreline by eroding it. Constant forces of water against the shore make it weak, and will break down the rocks over time. Waves also bring animals from the sea onto the shore,
wind that results from summer hurricanes and severe winter storms makes large waves that cause dramatic shoreline erosion.

Rocky shorelines have rocks and cliffs, so when the waves crash against the rock fragments and sediments are formed along the shoreline.
Energy from waves can erode shorelines by wearing away the coast and causing cliffs to collapse. It can also shape the coastline by depositing sediments in certain areas, building up beaches or barrier islands. Additionally, wave energy can affect coastal ecosystems by altering habitats and influencing the distribution of marine life.
When waves hit the shoreline, they slow down and their energy is transferred to the coast. This can cause erosion of the shoreline, as the waves carry sediment away. The waves can also break, creating turbulence and causing sediment to be deposited on the beach.
