Coastal path

Coastal path on the Côte d'Azur in France
A coastal path (or a littoral path) is a trail along a sea shore or a lake shore. For pedestrians, and sometimes for bikers or equestrians. At the origin, these paths were created for customs watching of the ships sending ashore boats with to-be taxed or forbidden goods.
Now, in some countries, these coastal paths are clean, with equipment such as benches and information boards, for touristic purposes.
