The following text is for questions 42 to 45.

Cappuccino coast is a natural ocean phenomenon. It is extremely rare, because it doesn’t occur very often. But sometimes, the sea churns out thick brown foam that resembles cappuccino froth. As cappuccino was brought to its shores by the strongest storm. 
 
This creamy, fluffy and frothy beach has a mysterious explanation to offer. The foam gets its brown color from dirt and other impurities like seaweed excretion, fish remains, and dead ocean plants. This thick foam appears when salt water interacts with the decomposition products of underwater living creatures. Strong currents mix all of these impurities, they all are shaken and stirred together, eventually creating bubbles and foam that are carried off to the shoreline. The more powerful the swirl is, the more foam it creates. And, that’s how ocean foam is formed. They are quite cool when touched. This is definitely the place wherein the swimmers can revel in its divine caress.
