Boardwalk

Coastal wooden path

A boardwalk is a walkway made of wooden planks, typically along a beach or through a marshy area: We strolled along the boardwalk at sunset.

In American resort towns, boardwalks often line the oceanfront with shops, restaurants, and amusements—Atlantic City's being the most famous, which lent its name to the most expensive property in Monopoly.
