Advection fog is formed when warm, moist air moves over a cooler surface. In the case of headlands, the converging surface winds cause the air to rise and cool, leading to the formation of fog. On the other hand, at beaches along an irregular coastline, the surface winds tend to be diverging, resulting in sinking air and less chance of fog formation.
