Shingle strip extending seaward (4)

I believe the answer is:

spit

(Other definitions for spit that I've seen before include "Roasting spear" , "Skewer on which meat is roasted" , "Ancient Mount Parnassus city" , "Expectorate on the tongue of land" , "Rotating cooker" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
