Abstract
Marine macro debris are increasingly deposited on beaches and are exposed to future micro plastics which are far more dangerous. The transboundary nature of the debris makes it a global case. This study is carried out on the Eritrean coasts of the southern Red Sea. Three sites selected according to their anthropogenic pressure difference and the result implies the difference of the sites. A total of 1500m2 beach is surveyed.
