The coastline is located at the junction of the sea and the land, and it is essential for ecological environment. However, most existing methods can extract the coastline with obvious boundaries and cannot obtain the general coastline, including an intertidal zone and salt field. Accordingly, a new general coastline extraction method is proposed on the basis of an improved active contour model to extract the general coastline from remote sensing images. An improved active contour model was proposed to extract the water area by introducing aiming energy of water from the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index information. Then, mathematical morphology was applied to obtain the seawater area based on the extracted water area. Finally, the coastline was refined and generated by the improved active contour model in a buffer zone of the seawater boundary. Landsat images over Jiaozhou Bay in Shandong Province, China, from 1990 to 2018 were used to extract the general coastline. Results demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively extract the general coastline, which is close to the reference coastline. The length of the coastline decreased from 234.64 km in 1990 to 221.21 km in 2000. This value significantly increased to 255.05 km from 2000 to 2010. The main reason is that Hongdao Island merged with the mainland due to reclamation. The length of the coastline slightly decreased by approximately 12 km from 2010 to 2018 due to environmental protection measures and the reclamation prohibition.
