The study was carried out to determine Mollusca fauna of Kastamonu and Sinop coasts. A seasonal sampling procedure was performed in the area from a variety of biotops in 0-0.5 and 5m depths at 4 stations between July 2007 and May 2008. A total of 11 species and 16823 specimens belonging to Bivalvia; 15 species and 5482 specimens belonging to Gastropoda and 1 species and 1 specimens belonging to Polyplacophora classes were encountered during the study.
