sharp rocks

Hazardous coastal terrain

Sharp rocks are stones with jagged, pointed, or cutting edges rather than smooth, worn surfaces.

The phrase typically appears in warnings or descriptions of hazardous terrain: Watch your step—there are sharp rocks along the shoreline.

Sharp rocks can cut bare feet, puncture tires, or make climbing treacherous.
