The following information is about Spit.

Spit Defined

A long, narrow extension of a beach that extends out into the sea or across an estuary or bay. Spits develop when longshore drift carries sand and/or shingle beyond the end of a beach into open water. The area behind a spit is sheltered from wind and waves and under low energy conditions deposition of sediment can occur. A salt marsh usually develops there, eventually colonised by vegetation (halosere development).

This definition is in context to Geography. See more contextual defintions for Spit.
