How do waves deposit form beaches?

How are pebble beaches formed?
Beaches composed of pebbles and other larger materials are usually described as intermediate or reflective beaches. They usually have a steep offshore slope and are narrow and steep in relief. Waves are either 'collapsing' or 'surging' in character with a strong swash and weak backwash. Hence larger pebble material is driven onshore under a strong swash and then deposited as the backwash is too weak to remove it. Also, on pebble beaches quite a bit of energy in the backwash will be lost via percolation (usually 33-50%) which further weakens the backwash.

Explain how beaches form and why all beaches are not the same?
Beaches form when tiny bits of rock that have been eroded by the action of the waves wash up on shore. They are different because they tend to be composed of different types of sand (rock bits). For example, beaches formed mainly of lava rock will have black sand, while other beaches may be white, pink, or tan.
Are there any different types of beach?
It depends what you mean by that... Many beaches have black sand and many have white... Hope this helps. Sorry if it doesn't. Also, you can have sandy beaches and stone/pebble beaches. Nude beaches and non-nude beaches.
