Erosion is a natural phenomenon and beaches exist only because of the process of erosion. Beach or sand erosion and accretion are normal and when viewed over a longer time period they balance out.
Wind causes waves to be produced in the water. These can cause erosion of the coast. Wind can also cause material to be transported, for example by longshore drift, which is where sediment moves along ...
