Journey to America's Barrier Islands: A Photographic Odyssey
Barrier islands are long, narrow strips of land that lie parallel to the coast. They are formed by the deposition of sand and other sediments by waves and currents. Barrier islands are important because they protect the mainland from storms and erosion. They also provide habitat for a variety of plants and animals.
