The specific activities of  238 U,  232 Th and  40 K in soil and shore sediments from the Mediterranean Sea Coast of Alexandria have been determined using direct gamma spectrometry with a HP-Ge detector and absorbed dose rates in air were calculated. The specific activity of  238 U was determined by laser fluorimetry after applying a radiochemical separation. The specific activities of  238 U,  235 U,  234 U,  238 Pu and  239+240 Pu were determined using an alpha spectrometer based on surface barrier detectors after applying sensitive radiochemical procedures. The specific activities of  238 U obtained by the three techniques were compared. The isotopic ratios  234 U/ 238 U and  238 Pu/ 239+240 Pu were calculated for evaluation of the geochemical behavior of the nuclides. Plutonium concentrations were compared with some reported values in other different marine ecosystems.
