Coral reef ecosystems are among the most sophisticated and specialized in the tropics. It is distinguished by its high levels of productivity and biodiversity. Along the shore of Kaana Village, coral reef ecosystems are almost dispersed. Reef fish, sea cucumbers, and shellfish are among the coral reef-related resources utilized by the inhabitants of this settlement. This research aims to identify the community structure of the coral reefs in the surroundings of Kaana waters, Enggano Island. Additionally, this study attempts to assess coral reef coverage. This investigation was carried out in August 2021 at depths of 3 and 7 meters in Ubik, Air Baun, Kikuba, and Sawang Pari points adopting a survey method. The Line Intercept Transect observation method was analyzed to evaluate the diversity of coral reefs (55 m long). There are 45 species, which belong to 25 genera and 10 families. Kaana's coral cover falls bad to moderate (13.5 to 30.75 percent), with an average of 21.60 percent.
