Trebarwith strand is a coastal settlement and section of coastline located on the north coast of Cornwall, United Kingdom,
2 1/2 miles (4.0 km) south of Tintagel. It has 800m of sandy beach, contained by cliffs, in which natural caves are found.

Sea foam, ocean foam, beach foam, or spume is a type of foam created by the agitation of seawater, particularly when it contains higher
concentrations of dissolved organic matter (including proteins, lignins, and lipids)
derived from sources such as the offshore breakdown of algal blooms. These compounds can act as surfactants or foaming agents.
As the seawater is churned by breaking waves in the surf zone adjacent to the shore, the presence of these surfactants under
these turbulent conditions traps air, forming persistent bubbles that stick to each other through surface tension. Due to its
low density and persistence, foam can be blown by strong on-shore win...
