The "Shore" is also the official term used by New Jersey residents as the "beach" yet we'd never call it the beach. If you live in Northern NJ, you say "I'm going down the shore this weekend". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.21.44.66 (talk • contribs) 16:51, 15 November 2005

Why does "beachline" redirect here?

Is it a synonym for "shoreline"? Judging by Google Books it might be something more geological. 86.130.40.127 (talk) 14:52, 20 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I think the word is kind of a neologism. May have been invented for the Beachline Expressway, so I retargeted beachline back to that. That's where it originally redirected. Besides, who's to say it shouldn't redirect to beach? wbm1058 (talk) 15:06, 5 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Coasts of lakes

"Great Lakes Coasts". www.iwr.usace.army.mil. Retrieved 13 April 2024. uses the term "coasts" for the shores of the Great Lakes. I am inclined to consider this a reliable source, but invite discussion on whether we should state in the article, that coasts are also part of the lacustrine environment. Opinions backed by reliable sources preferred. Cheers, · · · Peter Southwood ^(talk): 16:35, 13 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
