Data on vegetation were gathered in subtidal and intertidal zones by seasonal and monthly sampling, respectively. Samples were transferred to the laboratory and fixed in 4% formalin. According to some references the marine algae were recognized. Also, the herbarium sheet and algal photos were obtained. To final approval, the prepared samples were send to scientific centers of America, Chana and Pakistan (Wynn; Tseng and Qari, 1999). There are a number of genera and species of main algae consisting of Ulvaceae in green algae, Gildiaceae, Gracilariacea and Hypneacea in Red algae and Sarggaceae in brown algae.
