Site Description: The site consists of a creviced limestone platform at the foot of a limestone cliff. The supralittoral holds large limestone blocks, while the platform becomes fractured and separated at the mid-tide level. Below this level, the platform gives way to large limestone blocks, limestone outcrops and smooth rounded igneous boulders on the lower shore. The narrow intertidal region was dominated by fucoids and green algae.
