Why does a spit not always develop into a bar in coastal landforms
Usually the action of water such as an estuary entering the ocean at a coastline provides conditions for erosion and constant flow which means sediment is washed away and transported in the sea and can not be deposited because it is a high energy environment. Therefore, no more material can be deposited for the spit to grow across the estuary forming the bar
