這是香港唯一個有錄得長有Zostera nana(鰻草)的地點(於1978年發現)。
植物地理學家對在香港發現大葉藻屬植物特別感興趣，因為它的分佈範圍僅限於溫帶地區。
大葉藻屬植物在生態學上也很有趣，因為大葉藻屬植物生長處通常擁有獨特的生態。

The site is the first and only record of Zostera nana (Marine Eel Grass) from Hong Kong (discovered in 1978).
The discovery of the genus Zostera in Hong Kong is of special interest to the plant geographer as its distribution was thought to be limited to the temperate regions.
Zostera is also interesting zoologically as Zostera beds typically possess a unique associated fauna.
