Located in the Canterbury Conservancy, this marine reserve was established in 1999. An initial baseline habitat survey was completed.

Monitoring at this reserve targets subtidal reef benthic communities and key species (abundance and population size structure of mobile invertebrates, sessile invertebrates, algal communities and other selected key species (e.g. paua, kina) occurring on rocky reefs, boulder reefs, biogenic reefs) and subtidal fish species associated with rocky reefs, boulder reefs, biogenic reefs.

Sampling frequency = irregular.

Depths sampled: 0-50 m

Methods used to collect data:UVC, BUV, photograph
