Basically, a bay is formed first , this is when the coast erodes away and makes kind of a C shape . Parts of the bay stick out into the sea these are called the headlands. Headlands erode away too, but slowly. They are made from resistnat r...
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_is_a_Headland_formed
Headlands and bays are formed because headland rock is harder than bay rock so the sea wears away the bay rock more quickly. Tides and currents wash debris up against the hard rocks building up the headland. This happens over thousands of y...

Headlands and bays - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Headlands and bays are two related features of the coastal environment. Headlands and bays are often found together on the same stretch of coastline. A bay is surrounded by land on three sides, where...

are shaped by erosion. They are formed when the sea attacks a section of coast consisting of alternating bands of hard and soft rock. The bands of soft rock such as sand and clay, erode more quickly than those of more resistant hard rock su...

As a result of differential erosion, the bands of soft rock were eroded much more quickly than the bands of resistant rock to form bays and headlands.

These wonders of nature were formed when waves concentrated their attacks on the headlands of the irregular coastline due to wave refraction.

Bays and headlands are formed by erosion; they result from rocks eroding in different ways. Soft rocks are worn away more readily and form bays. The harder rocks take longer to erode and form headlands. An example of a coastal feature caused by erosion is a cave.

4. Where there is more resistant rock (e.g. chalk), erosion is much slower - headlands are formed as the harder rock is left sticking out into the sea...

Headlands and Bays ... A tunnel like opening called a cave is formed. ... Erosion/wave action acts less on the more resistant rock creating headlands and more on the less resistant rock creating bays.
