What is the difference between a jetty and a groyne?
These two terms are often used interchangeably to refer to the short, shore perpendicular structures that are built along a shoreline to hold sand in place. However, technically speaking, groins and jetties are not the same thing. Groins are the smaller shore perpendicular structures, built to trap sand and stabilize a sandy beach. Jetties are large structures typically used to stabilize inlet channels.
