The cliffs of Vale do Lobo beach are almost vertical formations of red ''Pleistocene'' sands (see also Figure 1). This [[shoreline]] stretch is characterised by a set of high cliffs, composed of highly fractured formations with weak cohesion, and a narrow subjacent beach. The base of the cliffs is often hit by breaking waves, especially in winter. The width of the subjacent beach is the main factor on which the evolution of the cliffs depends, as it is the main protection against waves breaking directly on the cliffs.

Experiences with beach nourishments in Portugal

Within Areas and Locations articles are classified either because of the main land use (rural, urban, protected, etc.) of the coastal or marine area that the article is referring to, or because of its location/s in the world. The United Nations Regional Sea categorisation has been used to indicate coastal and marine locations.

For example, supposing your article is about a case study on how a regional government is managing the loss of coral reefs and related social and economic issues, due to dynamite fishing in the South Pacific.

This article could be categorised as “South Pacific” and “Rural coastal area”
