These surveys aim to record as many species as possible as being present within a set survey area over 24-hours. A variety of different methods are employed, including times-species searches, plankton netting, Seine-netting, Pond-dipping with nets, mammal trapping, walkovers, push-netting, grab/core, transect/quadrat, and including Dive and snorkel surveys, although most records are ad-hoc sightings made during the 24 hour survey.

These surveys aim to record as many species as possible as being present within a set survey area over 24-hours. Data was collected by volunteers, taxonomic experts and professional scientists over two days (24 hours). Species were identified in the field and verified afterwards by taxonomic experts and scientists at the Marine Biological Association (MBA). The first record of each species found to be present within the survey area is was recorded, along with the verifier. Some surveys include counts/abundance information and extra information associated with the record. Surveys include: 2009 - Wembury, Devon. 21st-22nd August. 2010 - Mothecombe Bay, Devon. 11th-12th June. 2011 - Mount Edgecumbe 30th September - 1st October. 2012 - Cawsand, Cornwall. 7th-8th July. 2013 - Looe, Cornwall. 23rd-24th June. 2014 - Batten Bay, 12th-13th September 2015 - Salcombe, 27th-28th September 2016 - Plymouth Hoe Bioblitz Survey 2017 - Lee Bay, near Illfracombe, North Devon 2018 - Yealm, South Devon 2019 - Wembury, South Devon
