If you look at the Eye of the Sahara via satellite photography, you can see that the land to the north and the south of the eye has been ravaged very violently. There are very clear striations in the landscape, likely caused by large swathes of water flowing in from the ocean from the west towards the east. Moreover, experts have claimed that there is evidence that the Eye of the Sahara is heavily eroded.

Plato also claims that after the sinking of Atlantis, “it became an impassable barrier of mud to voyagers sailing from hence to any part of the ocean”. It is not hard to see how a large tsunami could have swept in large quantities of mud and sediment and landlocked the island from the ocean.
