Sea caves are sculpted by the relentless pounding of ocean waves against coastal cliffs. Over time, the force of the waves erodes the rock, creating hollow chambers and tunnels.

These caves can be found along rocky coastlines around the world, from the Blue Grotto in Italy to the sea caves of Oregon. The interaction of sea and rock produces stunning natural formations, showcasing the power and beauty of oceanic forces.
