Dynamic cobble berm revetments are a promising soft engineering technique capable of protecting sandy coastlines by armouring the sand and dissipating wave energy to protect the hinterland against wave attack. They also form composite beaches as they are essentially mimicking natural composite beach structure and behaviour. This type of coastal protections and beaches have recently been investigated, and this led to a better understanding of their overall behaviour under varying water levels and wave conditions. However, the short-term dynamics of the wash zone (where all bed changes occur) has never been studied at high-resolution, and this is needed to fully understand the underlying dynamics of such
