A point bar is typically deposited on the inside bend of a meandering river. As the river flows, sediment is carried by the current and is deposited on the slower-moving water side, forming a sandy or gravelly accumulation. This occurs due to the reduced velocity of water on the inner bank, allowing sediments to settle and build up over time.
