Raised beaches are landforms that occur when coastal areas experience uplift or a decrease in sea level, causing former shorelines to be elevated above the current sea level. They are typically associated with tectonic activity, such as the movement of the Earth's crust, or changes in climate that result in glacial melting and subsequent land rebound. These features often display marine sediments and fossils, indicating past marine environments. Raised beaches can provide valuable insights into historical sea-level changes and geological processes.
