Beach backed by steep cliffs formed?
This type of beach is most likely formed by the process of erosion, where the steep cliffs are gradually eroded by natural forces such as waves, wind, and changing sea levels. Over time, the eroded material is deposited along the shoreline, creating a beach that is backed by the remaining steep cliffs. The steep cliffs can provide a scenic backdrop for the beach but may also be subject to ongoing erosion processes.
