Intertidal

The intertidal zone, or foreshore, is the area that is above water at low tide and underwater at high tide. It includes various habitats that support diverse species, such as sea stars, sea urchins, and corals, with regional variations in biodiversity. While sometimes referred to as the littoral zone or seashore, these terms can describe a broader area.
