A headland, also known as a head, is a coastal landform, a point of land usually high and often with a sheer drop, that extends into a body of water. It is a type of promontory. A headland of considerable size often is called a cape. Headlands are characterised by high, breaking waves, rocky shores, intense erosion, and steep sea cliff.

भूशिर म्हणजे समुद्रात किंवा सरोवरात घुसलेले जमिनीचे निमुळत्या टोकासारखे दिसणारे भूरूप होय. भूशिराप्रमाणेच द्वीपकल्पाच्याही ठायी तीन बाजूंस पाण्याने वेढलेले, निमुळते होत जाणारे जमिनीचे भूरूप असते. मात्र अशा भूरूपाचा विस्तार विशाल असला, तरच त्यास द्वीपकल्प ही संज्ञा वापरतात; तर स्थानिक व्याप्तीच्या, छोट्या विस्ताराच्या अशा भूरूपांस भूशिर या संज्ञेने उल्लेखले जाते.
