Sea of Azov

Located southeast of UKRAINE, the Sea of Azov is a body of water attached to the larger Black Sea thanks to the Kerchenskiy (Kerch) Strait. Being the most shallow sea in the world with a maximum depth under 50 feet, this sea is north of the Black Sea, northeast of the Crimean Peninsula, and west of southwestern RUSSIA. Ukrainian cities surrounding the Sea of Azov include Berdyans'k, Mariupol', Novoazovs'k, and Prymors'k; Russian cities near the coastline include Azov, Rostov-na-Donu (has population greater than 1 million), Starominskaya, Taganrog, and Yeysk.

Blog Content


● The author of this GeoFact of the Day Blog creates and curates original, authentic content and posts information based on established facts. Blog posts are not generated by artificial intelligence (AI) but published by the author.

● Content and image graphics from other sources are properly credited. Many geography facts are well-established and therefore do not belong to any one source, but occasionally a fact requires attribution/credit if it is unique and hard-to-find — for example, facts found from specific cultural, anthropological, geological, and scientific (etc.) research.

● I do not copy and paste from other websites. Therefore, all posts are original but may sometimes include information, links, and/or images from credited external sources. To use a GeoFact of the Day Blog image for your website or project, write a comment below a post — then I may approve your request.
