The coastal zone is the transitional belt between the land and the sea, shaped by the interaction of marine, atmospheric, and terrestrial processes. The coastal profile represents the cross-sectional arrangement of coastal landforms from the inland area to the deep ocean floor. It reflects the effects of waves, tides, currents, sea-level changes, sediment supply, and geological structure. Coastal profiles vary from one region to another depending on the nature of rocks, tectonic activity, climate, and wave energy. Understanding the coastal profile is essential for studying coastal geomorphology, shoreline evolution, coastal erosion, and sediment deposition. The coastal profile begins with the coastal plain or hinterland, which gradually slopes towards the shoreline. This area may contain sand dunes, lagoons, marshes, estuaries, or cliffs depending on local environmental conditions. Coastal plains are generally formed by fluvial and marine deposition, while cliffs develop where resistant rocks are exposed to continuous wave attack. In rocky coasts, steep sea cliffs dominate the profile, whereas sandy coasts are characterized by wide beaches and gentle slopes. The shoreline is the boundary where land meets the sea. It is not fixed and changes continuously due to tides, waves, storms, and seasonal variations. The shore is divided into the backshore, foreshore, and nearshore zones. The backshore lies above the normal high tide level and is affected only during storms or exceptionally high
