This research was conducted to determine the diversity of macrozoobenthos in the estuary ecosystem of Lhokseumawe Regency, Indonesia. Sampling was carried out from July to September 2022 at five sampling locations. Five transects were examined each. Each sampling location has an area (10 x 10 m). The research showed that gastropods and bivalves were present at every sampling location. Macrozoobenthos diversity at the five research stations was in the range of 1,056 to 2,825, indicating moderate diversity. Macrozoobenthos diversity at the five research stations shows vulnerability to environmental changes, so management is needed.
