The 'littoral' zone is the beach.
Operational Zone of the Adriatic Littoral was created in 1943.
Operational Zone of the Adriatic Littoral ended in 1945.
The littoral zone of a lake is the near the shore area where sunlight penetrates all the way to the sediment and allows aquatic plants to grow. The benthic zone is the region at the lowest level of a body of a lake including the sediment surface and some sub-surface layers.
