Coral cover data were collected using Line Intercept Transect method and mortality analysis using mortality index method. Data collection was carried out in 4 different stations with 2 different depths. The results showed that at the depth of 5 m the highest damaged area is on 1st station, with 50% damaged coral reefs. Mortality rate at the depth of 5m and 10m found at 1st station with mortality index 0.4 point and 0.44 point respectively.
