In physical geography, a dune is a hill of sand built by either wind or water flow. Dunes occur in different shapes and sizes, formed by interaction with the flow of air or water. Most kinds of dunes are longer on the windward side where the sand is pushed up the dune and have a shorter "slip face" in the lee of the wind. The valley or trough between dunes is called a slack. A "dune field" is an area covered by extensive sand dunes.
Some coastal areas have one or more sets of dunes running parallel to the shoreline directly inland from the beach. In most cases, the dunes are important in protecting the land against potential ravages by storm waves from the sea. Although the most widely distributed dunes are those associated with coastal regions, the largest complexes of dunes are found inland in dry regions and associated with ancient lake or sea beds.
Dunes can form under the action of water flow (fluvial processes), and on sand or gravel beds of rivers, estuaries and the sea-bed.
The modern word "dune" came into English from French circa 1790.

From Tom, "For me, freeriding is so much more than building a jump in the hills or sending a 150-foot booter in the sand dunes. To me, it’s the experience, a freedom nothing else in the world can provide. It’s just insane to me that at this time in history, I not only get to explore places millions of people would love to visit, but I get to take my dirt bike and ride the evolving environment of places like the Dumont Dunes of Death Valley. My goal in this project was to pay homage to this place and tell people a little bit of its history, hoping to shed light on why it’s so unique. As a freerider, I’m here to encourage people to get out th...

I just missed the boat
The one sailing through your heart
That unknown port
That mysterious sea
The wharf is long and lonely
The ship is out of sight
The sinking orange sun
On the whitecap waves
The rocks and sand and seaweed
The dunes and the tall grass
They say the ferry's discontinued
And I can't stay on the pier
I turn and turn
