Azov Sea coast of Crimean peninsula

Some facts about the sea of Azov

Azov sea is connected only with a Black sea (near a city of Kerch). It has an area about 40 000 sq. km. (340 km. long and 135 km. wide). Sea of Azov is shallow, the maximum depth is only about 15 m. It makes this sea to be the shallowest in the World!!! There are not many resorts here, as on the Crimean Black sea coast. Most of beaches are sandy and most of time it's windy. Azov sea coast of Crimean peninsula - is an unspoiled Nature.
Arabatskaya Strelka (Arabat Strip) - is more than 100 km. long strip, sometimes only about 1 km. wide, connecting Crimea with a mainland Ukraine and separating over salted Sivash lake from a sea of Azov.
Winter time: almost every winter Azov sea is completely or partly frozen, but already in the end of May it's enough warm to open a swimming season!!!
