The formation and evolution of the sandy beaches of El Nido are influenced by various coastal dynamics, including wave action, tidal currents, and sea-level fluctuations. The beaches experience both accretion and erosion processes, with sand deposition occurring during calm weather conditions and sediment transport and removal during storms and high-energy events. The shape and characteristics of the beaches are shaped by wave refraction, longshore drift, and coastal currents, which redistribute sediments along the coastline and create diverse beach morphologies, including pocket beaches, crescent-shaped bays, and sandy coves.
