Coastal lagoons do not form along steep or rocky coasts, or if the range of tides is more than 4 metres (13&nbsp;ft). Due to the gentle slope of the coast, coastal lagoons are shallow. A relative drop in sea level may leave a lagoon largely dry, while a rise in sea level may let the sea breach or destroy barrier islands, and leave reefs too deep underwater to protect the lagoon. Coastal lagoons are young and dynamic, and may be short-lived in geological terms. Coastal lagoons are common, occurring along nearly 15 percent of the world's shorelines. In the United States, lagoons are found along more than 75 percent of the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/East_Coast_of_the_United_States?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="East Coast of the United States">Eastern</a> and <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Gulf_Coast_of_the_United_States?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Gulf Coast of the United States">Gulf Coasts</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Kusky_3-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Lagoons?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-Kusky-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Nybakken_4-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Lagoons?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-Nybakken-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p> <p>Coastal lagoons can be classified as leaky, restricted, or choked.<sup id="cite_ref-Kjerfve1986_17-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Lagoons?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-Kjerfve1986-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Coastal lagoons are usually connected to the open ocean by <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Inlet?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Inlet">inlets</a> between barrier islands. The number and size of the inlets, precipitation, evaporation, and inflow of fresh water all affect the nature of the lagoon. Lagoons with little or no interchange with the open ocean, little or no inflow of fresh water, and high evaporation rates, such as <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Lake_St._Lucia?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Lake St. Lucia">Lake St. Lucia</a>, in <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/South_Africa?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="South Africa">South Africa</a>, may become highly saline.
