How constructive wave form beach?
Constructive waves, as the name suggests, build up a beach. They are flat and low (around one metre in height) and their energy is limited. There are only a few waves per minute. The weaker backwash doesn't return all the material to the sea so the beach builds up.
The swash of a constructive wave pushes material up the beach as far as the berm - a ridge along the back of the beach. The berm marks the highest point of the spring tide.
Constructive waves form gentle beaches - an example of this can be seen at St. Cyrus.

Can you propose on the beach without a ring?
You can do if you really want. A ring is a tradition, not necessarily a must. At the end of the day, it's the thought that counts. However your partner may not be pleased with that. Many people prefer the traditional approach and it is actually very gentlemanly to do the traditional proposal.
A traditional proposal starts with the permission from her father, which means asking her father for his permission or blessing to marry his daughter. Then the proposal itself is next. This can be done anywhere, but ideal places are somewhere romantic or somewhere surprising. Getting down on your knee is an absolute must. A ring is traditional but not always necessary, however it is a nice gesture and acts as an announcement - "this woman is taken". If you don't do it properly, the way she's dreamt of it happening, she'll probably say no, because it's a once in a lifetime thing.
Whether you can get away with using a ring or not depends on the person you are proposing to and their personality. Which, since you're planning on proposing, you should hopefully know every inch of.
