    A boardwalk is a raised path made of wooden boards, built a little above the ground. You most often find one beside the sea, along a beach, so people can walk without sinking into sand. In some towns the boardwalk is also a place to stroll, with food and small shops, not only a way to get from one end of the beach to the other.
