The development of the coastal zone of the eastern Gulf of Finland has a long geological history and depends on the several main factors. The primary configuration of the shoreline is connected with tectonic movements, which even at present are displayed in slow uplifting of the northern coast and slow sinking of the southern one. However, the main features of the recent coastal zone were formed during degradation of the last glacial cover and essentially transformed during post-glacial period of different water bodies’ existence. The processes of the modern morpho- and litho-dynamic are very changeable and expressed in the different accumulative and erosion forms of relief. The anthropogenic activity during last centuries results in local reconstruction of the conditions of existence and development of the coastal zone.
