What is a Lagoon? Lagoons are shallow coastal bodies of water separated from the ocean by a series of barrier islands which lie parallel to the shoreline. Inlets, either natural or man-made, cut through barrier islands and permit tidal currents to transport water into and out of the lagoons.
A lagoon is a shallow body of water separated from a larger body of water by barrier islands or reefs.Lagoons are commonly divided into coastal lagoons and atoll lagoons. They have also been identified as occurring on mixed-sand and gravel coastlines.iver-mouth lagoons such as hapua were also used a source for mahinga kai (food gathering) by the MÄori people. However, this is no longer the case due to catchment degradation which has resulted in lagoon deterioration.
