  abstract = {{S}everal studies have been carried out in the {G}ulf of {G}uinea to understand the complex dynamics that control the evolution of tropical coastal environments. {T}he results, based on altimetric and re-analyzes data, revealed the variability of hydrodynamic and morphological processes. {T}hese results were validated in the short term with field measurement campaigns. {I}n this paper, we propose a validation of the seasonal and inter-seasonal variability from data collected with a video system installed at {G}rand {P}opo, {B}enin since {F}ebruary 2013 - {S}eptember 2016. {I}ts potential is assessing event and seasonal coastline behaviour have been demonstrated in a previous study. {T}he video system was used to track the evolution of hydrodynamic parameters and beach's state at high frequency and continuously. {A} comparison of video estimates is carried out with {ERAI}nterim re-analysis data. {T}he results show a strong correlation between seasonal cycles of hydrodynamic parameters and shoreline's position. {H}owever, the qualitative variation of the beach (beach slope) is still strongly linked to other parameters (tide and cross-shore transport processes). {D}uring the study period, the {G}rand {P}opo beach experienced a gradual decline of its shoreline, reflecting the presence of a strong trend or an inter-seasonal (inter-annual) cycle.},
