In India, Tamilnadu coast extends to a length of about 1026 km. Coastal zone is the transition between land and sea, one of the most fragile, complex and productive ecosystem. It is bestowed with enormous resources, both living and non-living, potential area for recreation and harnessing non-conventional energy resources (wave and wind energy). Widely varying nature of landforms and their disposition along the beaches and inland represent the successive phases of transgression and regression of sea level. The analyzed sediments exhibit a good sorting under high energy environment. Most of the samples were brought by beach and Aeolian processes and deposited by shallow agitated water in a turbid environment.
