A transportation barrier is a natural barrier like mountains, rivers, oceans, etc that blocks or slows the way of transportation.
Barrier islands are long, relatively narrow islands that run along a coast parallel to the mainland. They are built up by the action of waves and currents and help protect the coastline from erosion by surf and tidal surges. Barrier islands occur all over the world but are especially prevalent along the Atlantic and Gulf coast of North America.
