Berdasarkan hasil analisis besar butir sebanyak 36 percontoh sedimen permukaan dasar laut di Perairan Cirebon, didapatkan 4 jenis sedimen: lanau, lanau pasiran, pasir lanauan dan pasir. Sedimen lanau, lanau pasiran, dan pasir, tersebar di lepas pantai Cirebon dan muara Sungai Kalijaga, sedangkan pasir lanauan di muara sungai Sukalila. Dari Peta Batimetri terlihat daerah dangkal di sekitar muara Sungai Kalijaga. Sedimen paling tebal terdapat di sekitar muara Sungai Kalijaga dan Sungai Sukalila. Sedimen tersebut tersebar ke arah lepas pantai dan ke daerah rencana lokasi pelabuhan. Di muara Sungai Kalijaga sedimennya berupa pasir. Berdasarkan plot pada grafik antara ukuran besar butir terhadap persen frekuensi, didapatkan hasil sedimen dengan persen frekuensi yang tinggi antara 2.25 phi - 2.75 phi atau pasir sedang sampai pasir halus. Berdasarkan grafik frekuensi kumulatif terhadap besar butir terdapat 2 cara transpor yaitu traksi untuk butiran pasir sedang dan saltasi untuk kisaran butiran lanau sampai pasir halus. Kata Kunci : S. Kalijaga, S. Sukalila, Cirebon, besar butir, sedimen Based on grain size analysis of 36 seafloor surficial sediment samples from Cirebon Water; there are 4 types of sediments silt, sandy silt, silty sand and sand. Silt, sandy silt and sand are distributed offshore of Cirebon and in the river mouth of Kalijaga, while silty sand is in the river mouth of Sukalila. From the bathymetric map the shallow water can be observed in Kalijaga river mouth. The thicker sediments are found in Kalijaga mouth and Sukalila river. These sediments have been transported to the offshore and to the proposed Harbour location. Sediment in Kalijaga river mouth is sand. Based on graphic presentation between grain size and percent frequencies, it indicates that the percentage of higher frequencies ranges between 2.25 TO 2.75 phi. Based on the cumulative frequency to grain size graphic, there are two transport modes: traction for medium size sand and saltation for grain size range silt to fine sand.
