The supralittoral zone, also known as the supratidal zone, is the area of the shoreline that is above the high tide line and typically remains dry except during extreme weather events, such as storms or unusually high tides. This zone is characterized by a variety of conditions influenced by both terrestrial and marine factors, including exposure to sunlight, wind, and occasional salt spray.
