Abstract:
A study on a variation of grain size and beach profile was conducted along the Kuala
Terengganu coastline which covers the area from Tok Jembal Beach to Maras Beach.
Sampling and data collection were carried out every one month from September 2005
until December 2005. The aims of the study are to determine grains size characteristic
and distribution, also the relation with beach profile. The study also determines the net
shore drift pattern along the coastline. Sample was taken from seven different station
with three representative points along littoral zone which include the high tide, mide tide
and low tide. This study has found a significant influent of the monsoon to the sediment
characteristic changes on the study area.
