Sea cliffs are also called wave cut cliffs. Sea erosion cliffs and bedrock coasts often form steep cliffs along fault joints or bedding planes due to sea erosion and gravity caving. At the contact between the sea cliff and the high tide sea surface, sea caves are often formed.

After the sea caves gradually expand, the upper rocks lose their support and collapse to form steep cliffs, which are called sea cliffs. Here are ten of the most beautiful sea cliffs in the world.
