Spurn Head in the East Riding of Yorkshire is a spit which reforms every 250 years.
Longshore drift is the transportation process that forms spits and bars. It occurs when waves approach the coastline at an angle, carrying sediment along the shore. The sediment is then deposited in elongated ridges known as spits and submerged offshore parallel sandbars known as bars.
Yes, spits are formed as a result of wave erosion. They typically develop when longshore drift transports sediment and deposits it in a protruding landform, extending out from the coast. Over time, the continual action of waves shapes and reshapes these features.
A spits or sandspits is a deposition landform found off coasts. At one end,spits connect to land,and extend into the sea. A spit is a type of bar or beach that develops where a re-entrant occurs,such as at cove's headlands,by the process of longshore drift.
spits are the processes of longshore drift, this is where the waves deposit sand down a beach according to prevailing wind, this happens gradually and this sand can stretch around the headlandand out from the shore, the are behind the spit will become a salt marsh as it will get less water, these spits can then extend and join up two parts of the headland (a bar) or a headlant ot an island (a tombolo).
Beaches: Accumulation of sand and other sediment along the coastline. Spits: Narrow stretches of sand or gravel that extend into open water from a coast. Bars: Submerged or exposed ridges of sand, gravel, or other sediments deposited parallel to the shoreline.
they are NO famous waterfalls in the UK. :)

First things first. You know beaches, headlands, and spits. Well, maybe not spits. Anyways, spits are long finger like beaches that reach out into the ocean. Okay, back to the point of the question. Beaches, headlands, and spits were all made by WAVES which are caused by wind. Waves are a type of erosion. What makes them, will destroy them. Basically, waves made beaches, headlands, and spits, but, waves will then again destroy them.
