Natural Arches

Natural Arches are features of coastal erosion. They are found on cliffed coastlines and result from wave attack punching a hole through a headland. They are temporary features in the landscape, their roofs often collapse leaving stacks.

Blowholes

Blowholes are a feature of coastal erosion. They are formed when the roof of a cave collapses leaving a roughly circular hole in the cliff top above. When waves hit the back of the cave spray is sometimes ejected, hence the name.
