Spurn Head is a unique coastal landform known as a spit. It is a narrow, curved stretch of land that juts out into the sea, formed by the deposition of sediment carried by longshore drift along the coastline.

What is is a sand spit?
A sand spit is a landform made up of sand that extends into a body of water, usually formed by longshore drift. It typically hooks or curves at the end, and is a result of sediment deposition. Sand spits can protect coasts from erosion and create sheltered areas like lagoons.
How is a spit formed?
Spits form as a result of deposition by longshore drift, which is the movement of sand along the coast by the waves. The spit is formed when any material that is being carried by the waves gets deposited due to a loss of the waves energy, this could be because of a change of wind direction, or an estuary in the opposing direction slowing it down. As time progresses the deposited material forms a spit. Sediment for example at a mouth of a river is carried along the beach due to pravialling wind (when the wind blows the sea in a horizontal direction) the sediment is carried backwards and forwards called swash and backwash, over time the sediment can build up to form a landform such as a spit, along the edge of a bay. which usually have a hooked end.
What is the difference between a bar and a spit?
A bar develops by the process of Longshore drift,which occurs due to waves meeting at the beach at an angle and backwashing perpendicular to the shore, moving sediment down the beach on a zigzag pattern. A spit is a deposition landform found off coasts. At one end, spits connect to land and extend into the sea.
