Intertidal, or Beach, Surveys

Marine EcoSol organises bespoke beach surveys of habitats, biotopes or species, tailored to each clients requirements. Often a developer, EIA or countryside agency will require an `intertidal survey` of what lives on a beach of interest. The intertidal is the area of shore between the highest and lowest astronomical tides. It includes rocky shores, sandy beaches, saltmarshes and estuaries. Our tailored surveys can search for a specific species or habitat of interest (for instance, a UK marine BAP habitat or species), undertake an MNCR Phase 2 style biotope exercise, or we can even work with our associates to produce exhaustive species lists of what lives on your beach.
