The survey complements other NCC-funded studies of the rocky and soft sediment shores of the Menai strait also carried out in 1982 and follows a long history of scientific investigation in the Strait. Transects were selected at 1 km intervals along the Strait for dive sites, and site profiles recorded outside the Strait. Habitats were described, algal and animal communities recorded and photographs of the range of habitat types, communities and species observed taken.
