Coastal waters refer to the marine areas that are adjacent to shorelines, typically extending from the low tide mark to the outer edge of the continental shelf. These waters are influenced by both terrestrial and oceanic processes, resulting in unique ecosystems that support diverse marine life. Coastal waters play a crucial role in fisheries, tourism, and environmental protection, serving as vital habitats for various species and acting as buffers against erosion and pollution.
