Definition for breakwater

A breakwater, often referred to as a groyne or jetty, is a sturdy man-made structure that is built to protect a shoreline or harbor from the force of waves and erosion. These barriers are typically constructed perpendicular to the coastline, extending into the water, and are designed to absorb or deflect wave energy. Breakwaters are made using various materials such as rocks, concrete blocks, timber, or steel, depending on the surrounding environment and intended purpose. By providing a barrier between the open sea and the shoreline, breakwaters help to create calmer waters, reduce erosion, and offer safe harbors for boats and ships.
