The tip of a piece of land that juts into water is called a spit, or sandspit. Often hook shaped and formed when waves hit the coastline but not complimentary to the coastline's angle, this action causes sand and sediment to drift and be deposited in a zig-zag pattern along the coast. This is called long shore drifting. Over time the repeated action/process forms a new spit.
