Incredible line of rock/ mineral? formation in Thangalle, Sri Lanka

I am at the very south of Sri Lanka near Thangalle, and I noticed this incredible line of mineral? Running down the middle of the rocks all the way down the beach. Could anyone kindly shed some light on this? Was it a flat layer formed over thousands of millions of years and fell over so all I can see now is a line? How did it from? What is it? I have 0 knowledge of geology, just find this line running down the whole beach to be incredibly fascinating. Would totally watch a whole docco if one existed.
