Intertidal zone
Biomes
During the day it is covered by water and exposed to air... as the tides move in or out.
Rockweed, a type of seaweed, is commonly found growing in the intertidal zone, which is the area that is covered by water during high tide and exposed during low tide. This allows rockweed to thrive in both submerged and exposed conditions as the tide fluctuates.

You do not have to be nude. And, in fact, it is illegal to be nude during a massage in the US. You may be disrobed, which means having all your cloths off. But, you are covered very professionally with a drape so no private anatomy is exposed.
When the ocean meets land it is called the coastline, or the shore, but also the beach.This area of a biome is called the intertidal zone or littoral zone, being the area that is submerged at high tide and exposed during low tide.
The intertidal zone is the area that is exposed to the air at low tide and submerged at high tide. (Also known as the "foreshore" or "littoral zone").The intertidal zone is the area of the shoreline which is covered the rising tide during high tide and exposed during low tide.After the Intertidal zone is the neritic zone which extends from the extreme low tide line to the continental shelf.The Intertidal and Neritic zones are often also referred to as the Littoral and sublittoral zones, with the littoral zone beginning at the high water mark and extending to the low water mark and the sublitoral picking up where the littoral zone ends continuing on to the continental shelf.The area covered by high tide, but exposed at low tide is called the intertidal zone.

During the ice age, large amounts of water were locked up in glaciers, causing global sea levels to drop. This resulted in more land being exposed. Today, as the glaciers have melted, sea levels have risen and covered some of the land that was exposed during the ice age.
Indonesia has such a long coastline because of the way the land was formed, most likely during the Ice Age. Indonesia has the second longest coastline in the world, second only to Canada.
The water rises for 6 hours then falls for 6 hours in a cycle.
Australia was one continent not covered by ice during the Pleistocene Ice Age. Africa is another continent not covered during this time.
