man_made=quay anyone ?

To quote the IHO dictionary:

"quay. A WHARF approximately parallel to the SHORELINE and accommodating ships on one side only, the other side being attached to the SHORE. It is usually of solid construction, as contrasted with the open pile construction usually
used for PIERS."

So yes, your reasoning is correct & that section of the coastline that forms the quay could indeed be tagged "man_made=quay".

Might it be a good idea to raise this issue in the tagging list?
