Bays of Sevastopol. Sevastopol Bay Raid of Sevastopol Bay

The bays are a unique landmark of Sevastopol. The city is located like an amphitheater on the hills along their banks. It is the bays that give it its extraordinary picturesqueness.
Port of Sevastopol. Marvelous! It seems that fertile nature poured out all its bounties on it and gave it everything it needed for the best port in the world, - wrote Admiral M.P. Lazarev.

Coves turning on the shore into deep long ravines, modern city is divided into 13 regions separated by relief. The largest bay is more than 7.5 km long - Sevastopol Bay stretches from open sea V westward to the Inkerman Monastery, at the end it gradually narrows and ends at the mouth of the Chernaya River. Sevastopol Bay is the sea gate of the city. Occupying a large expanse of water, it has served as a convenient anchorage for the fleet since the beginning of the 20th century. it contained battleships and cruisers, and in addition, it divides the city into South and North sides. The name “Sevastopol Bay” appeared immediately after the founding of the city. Its other names are also known: Ktenus (Ktenunt), Kalamita-estuary, Korsunsky Sivash, Akhtarskaya, Inkermanskaya, Bolshaya, Big roadstead, Main roadstead, Sevastopol roadstead, Chersonesos estuary.
You can take a walk along the bay at any time of the year. A regular boat delivers passengers from the Grafskaya pier to Inkerman, visiting several smaller bays formed by the winding shores of the Sevastopol Bay.

On the southern shore of Sevastopol Bay there are: Martynova, Aleksandrovskaya, Khrustalnaya, Artilleriyskaya, Yuzhnaya, Korabelnaya, Appolonova, Kilen Bay; in the north - Konstantinovskaya, Matyushenko, Mikhailovskaya, Staro-Severnaya, Severnaya, Kurinaya, Panaiotova, Holland, Sukharnaya, Mayachnaya, Grafskaya. In the western direction from the city there are the bays of Karantinnaya, Khersones, Kruglaya, Streletskaya, Kamyshovaya, Kazachya, Dvoynaya, deeply cut into the shore, near the Khersones cape, on which the lighthouse is located. Further, already from the open sea, there is a small Golubaya Bay, Fiolenta Bays and, finally, a completely unique Balaklava Bay, which deserves a separate story (what a story, Homer’s poem!)

Artillery Bay small, suitable only for small ships, located in the very center of the city. IN late XIX V. served as a port for commercial ships arriving in Sevastopol. Merchant ships that brought provisions from the army commissariat stood here and stopped sailing ships with forest and vegetables. Now in Artillery Bay there is a ferry pier and a pier for ships and boats.

long, deep. It is the second largest after Sevastopol, with a length of 2.4 km, dividing the southern side of the city into Korabelnaya and Central City. It is located away from the sea, the water in it is always calm, steep slopes allow large ships approach the very shore; the absence of sea and river sediments, convenient configuration of the banks, and non-freezing water create favorable conditions for the fleet. Immediately upon the founding of Sevastopol, it was chosen for the anchorage of ships; it perfectly accommodated the entire squadron. In the Sevastopol and Southern bays in the 19th century. the entire Black Sea Fleet was there. Nowadays, a pier for large ships and a marine terminal have been built in the South Bay. In the 80s of the XIX century. The southern bay was allocated for a commercial port, piers, warehouses for goods, mainly grain and salt, and a new customs house were built.
In the summer, you can take a boat trip along the South Bay on boats that depart from the Kornilov embankment and the Grafskaya pier.

Ship Bay small, jutting into the eastern shore of the South Bay, near Pavlovsky Cape. It has the shape of a hook, the depth of the bay allows ships to approach the very shore, so piers were built here, later the Admiralty, and five dry docks. The shores of the bay were surrounded by large granite embankments, on which shops, barracks, and port offices were located; bollards for mooring ships were installed along the embankments. Yuzhnaya and Korabelnaya bays were the military harbor of Sevastopol. Now on the shore of Korabelnaya Bay there is a Marine Plant named after. S. Ordzhonikidze.

East of the South lies - deep, narrow, but small. In November 1782, to support ground forces in Crimea, two frigates (No. 8 and No. 11), later “Brave” and “Caution,” were transferred here from Kherson. Their overall command was exercised by a captain of the 1st rank. THEM. Odintsov. These frigates were the first Russian ships to remain for the winter in Akhtiarskaya (Sevastopol) Bay. In winter, the sailors took measurements of the bays and put the frigates in order. They chose a convenient deep bay for keeling ships (keeling is cleaning the bottoms of ships from shells and algae, tilting them on their side). Later, a special pier for keeling was built in the bay, and the swamp at the end of the bay was drained. In 1836-1850, the bay embankment was landscaped according to the design of engineer Vlasov. The Black Sea Fleet ship repair yard is still located in Kilen Bay.
Kilen Bay was also called Avlita (Greek - Reed Bay). The toponym recalls the small medieval town of Avlita, which is believed to have been located in the Kilen Bay area. In the XIV century. The principality of Theodoro (Mangup), striving to access the sea, builds the port of Avlitu, and for its protection at the mouth of the river. Chernoy - Kalamitu fortress. The port of Avlita was apparently destroyed by the Turks in 1475, after the capture of the capital of the principality of Theodoro.

Quarantine Bay- long, winding, on its western bank there are the ruins of ancient Chersonesus, on east coast After the founding of Sevastopol, a quarantine was established.

Streletskaya Bay extends deep into the shore, on which an artificial embankment was built for ships to berth. Vessels moored at the embankment are protected by the head of the pier. “Streletskaya” in the conversations of Sevastopol residents usually means the entire area adjacent to Gagarin Avenue, formerly called Streletskoye Shosse. The name of the bay was first mentioned by P.P. Pallas in 1793. The origin of the toponym is controversial. Perhaps the name of the bay goes back to the 40-gun frigate “Strela”, which was part of the Black Sea Fleet from 1783 to 1788. Over the years, the ship could more than once dock in this bay, which was first called Strelskaya. In 1941-1942, there was a base for OVR (water area security) boats in Streletskaya Bay. Here sailor Ivan Golubets accomplished his feat, at the cost of his own life, preventing the explosion of ammunition on a burning boat.

Round (Sandy) Bay its outline resembles a circle, has a sandy bottom, is very shallow and completely unsuitable for navigation. Already in the 1900s, new houses, dachas, and boarding houses were built on the shore of the bay. Nowadays, the city beach “Omega” is located here, Kid `s camp, boarding house.

Double bay to the southwest of the Round Cape, protruding from its south coast, is divided into two: Reed(eastern) and Cossack(western). Both bays are open north winds, but Kamyshovaya is more convenient and safer for swimming, its shore is elevated, with gentle slopes. In these bays in 1854-1855 there was the main anchorage of the French fleet, and a temporary French town of Camies was built near the shore.
Now on the shores of Kamyshovaya Bay there is the Yugreftransflot enterprise, a shipbuilding plant, a fish canning plant, the Ukrainian Maritime Institute, and a large fishermen’s village.
Cossack Bay on its western shore has a small bay called Salty, near which was salt Lake, where at the end of the 18th century. mined salt. On the shores of Cossack Bay in June 1942, the organized resistance of the defenders of Sevastopol to the fascist invaders continued until the last bullet, and after the liberation of the city in May 1944, the surviving soldiers of the 17th German Army were captured here.

Northern Bay (Perevoznaya) is located on the northern side of Sevastopol, there are berths for boats and ferries. During the liberation of Sevastopol in May 1944, the Northern Bay was crossed by soldiers of the 2nd Guards Army.

Engineering Bay next to the east after Northern. The toponym arose after the construction of the Engineering Department pier was completed at the end of the century. The former name of the bay, Kurinaya, is explained by the fact that before the Crimean War there were food warehouses with grain here, which attracted many chickens.

Holland Bay located on the northern shore of Sevastopol Bay. At the beginning of the 19th century, a timber warehouse was built on its banks for the construction and repair of ships. Since the beginning of the 18th century, similar warehouses were called Holland in the Russian fleet (the first such warehouse, created at the founding of St. Petersburg, was called New Holland.

Suharnaya Bay located east of Holland. The bay was named so because in the 20s of the 19th century. In a ravine on the shore, a large bakery was built with dryers for the production of crackers for the Black Sea Fleet. After the Crimean War, as a result of a sharp reduction in the Black Sea Fleet, large quantities of crackers were no longer required, and the bakery was closed. The artillery arsenal of the Black Sea Fleet was located in Sukharnaya Balka during the Great Patriotic War. Here, on June 25, 1942, the Red Navy soldier A. Chikarenko accomplished his feat, blowing up an adit with ammunition when the Nazis broke through to the arsenal and entered the adit.

Grafskaya Bay the easternmost of those flowing into Sevastopol Bay from the north. Here at the end of the 18th century there was a farm belonging to the commander (from 1786 to 1790) of the Sevastopol squadron of the Black Sea Fleet, Rear Admiral Count M.I. Voinovich. This bay, as well as the famous Count's Marina, owes its name to him. Grafskaya Bay is also called Neftegavan.

Sevastopol bays are bays and coves located between Cape Lucullus in the north and Cape Sarych in the south, protruding into the territory subordinate to the Sevastopol City Council. The largest of the Sevastopol bays, more than 7.5 km long, is the Sevastopol Bay itself. Its other names are Ktenus, Ktenunt, Kalamita Estuary, Korsun Sivash, Akhtiarskaya, Inkermanskaya, Bolshaya, Bolshoi Roadstead, Sevastopol Roadstead, Main Roadstead, Chersonesos Estuary and it includes 20 more smaller bays.

During the first defense of Sevastopol, in September 1854, between the Konstantinovskaya and Aleksandrovskaya batteries, by order of the commander-in-chief (Prince A.S. Menshikov), 7 ships with their weapons and rigging were sunk to block the entrance to the roadstead. Later, in February 1855, from the Mikhailovsky Fort on the North side to the Nikolaevskaya battery on the South side, a second line of masts protruding from the water appeared - 8 more ships were sunk. Until the end of the 349-day defense of Sevastopol, these ships blocked access to Allied ships (England-France-Turkey) into Sevastopol Bay. In 1905, in memory of the sunken ships, a monument was erected on the site of the second ship flooding line, 10 m from the shore, which is today recognizable business card cities.

Submarine S-49 (PZS-50) project 633RV. IN Soviet time Two Project 633 submarines were converted into Project 633RV for experimental purposes. In the bow, these boats received a superstructure with two 650-mm torpedo tubes for testing new rocket torpedoes (the Waterfall and Wind systems, which were a rocket with a torpedo that separated in flight). In 1995, the boat was converted into a floating charging station and renamed PZS-50. Her current state is succinctly characterized by a quote from the wonderful comedy Remove the Periscope - She hasn’t drowned yet because her birds have shitted themselves, sir!

Small anti-submarine hydrofoil ship MPK-220 Vladimirets. The speed of such a ship is 60.5 knots (almost 110 km/h). In November 2007, during a strong storm, a factory floating crane torn from its moorings fell on Vladimirets, located on the pier of the ship repair plant. Vladimir then received several holes on the left side and began to intensively turn into a submarine. But it worked out.

A most interesting captured ship. It was launched in 1938 in Hamburg as a command ship for the German submarine forces - the Hela submarine mother ship. From 1940 to 1945, the ship was part of the Kriegsmarine as a ship of the headquarters and control of the submarine forces of Grand Admiral Karl Doenitz. The yacht saw almost all the leaders of the Third Reich - Hitler, Goering, Himmler, Bormann. By decision of the Allied Commission on the division of the German fleet, Hal was transferred to the USSR. In 1946 she was enlisted in the Baltic Fleet with the name Angara. Then she was transferred to the Black Sea and until the end of the 1950s was under the flag of the Marine units of the Border Troops of the KGB of the USSR, performing the functions of a government ship. Later it was used as a control ship of the Black Sea Fleet and as a representative yacht. Since 1996 it was disbanded and transferred to the floating barracks PKZ-14. Now sold to a private person and standing at the Sevmorzavod pier for a complete overhaul.

Ladny is a Project 1135 patrol ship. The purpose of the ship is long-term patrolling to search for and destroy enemy submarines. It was launched in 1980 in Kerch. Currently part of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. In 2008, Ladny, together with ships from NATO countries, participated in Operation Active Efforts to Control Shipping in the Suez Canal area. In 2009, he discovered and freed the cargo ship Arctic Sea, which had been captured by pirates (it seems to have been captured by pirates, because in the story of the Arctic Sea, not everything is particularly clear).

The middle of Sevastopol Bay, a place approximately in a triangle bounded by Apollo Bay, Dock Bay and Holland Bay, is the site of 2 consecutive tragedies of the Black Sea Fleet. First the Russian and then the USSR fleet.

In the early morning of October 7, 1916, there was a powerful explosion on the battleship Empress Maria. The fire spread too intensely and as a result, less than an hour later, after the most powerful explosion in the powder magazine, the ship sank. Along with the ship, 152 people died, and another 64 died from wounds and burns. Dozens of people were left crippled. The investigation commission did not find out the causes of the explosion. However, in 1933, during an investigation into sabotage at the Nikolaev shipyard, German intelligence agent Victor Wermann, who was (allegedly) recruited by Germany back in 1908, was arrested. From his confession it follows that he personally led the operation to destroy Empress Maria. Although this version has never been refuted, we all understand how in 1933 one could suddenly find oneself an enemy of the people and a saboteur.

A second similar incident occurred on October 29, 1955. Under the hull battleship Novorossiysk (formerly Giulio Cesare, expropriated from Italy after the war), an explosion occurred, equivalent to 1000-1200 kg of TNT, which pierced the ship’s hull. Since the bow cockpits were located at the site of the explosion, between 150 and 175 people were immediately killed. They tried to refloat the battleship, but inadequate management of the rescue efforts by senior naval officials led to the ship capsizing. A total of 604 people are considered dead. Official version the explosion of 1-2 bottom German mines remaining at the bottom of the water area from the war is considered.

Small rocket ship Shtil project 1234.1. Purpose - the destruction of warships and merchant ships on closed seas and the near ocean zone. In the 1970-1980s, groups of such ships in the amount of 2-3 units plus a support ship regularly went to the Mediterranean Sea to keep the US 6th Fleet in good shape.

Rocket hovercraft Samum.. Samum is a dry hot squall accompanied by a sandstorm, common in deserts North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. One of the translations of this Arabic word is the Sea of ​​Blood... There are only two ships of this type. The second one is called Bora (also in Sevastopol). The ship is capable of reaching speeds of up to 55 knots (more than 100 km/h) and this is considered a speed that does not allow the ship to be captured by homing missiles (which is doubtful). For the same reason, the torpedo does not have time to catch up with it (which is even more doubtful, since the American Mark-48 torpedo has a speed of the same 55 knots).

Control ship U-510 Slavutich. Launched in 1990, it was built as a large reconnaissance ship - a ship for illuminating the underwater situation. According to other sources, it is a special vessel of the auxiliary fleet - a base for unloading and neutralizing reactors of nuclear submarines. It was developed on the basis of a large refrigerated fishing trawler and therefore resembles it.

Project 11351 border patrol ship Nereus. It was founded in 1990 with the name Kirov. After the collapse of the USSR, it suddenly began to qualify as a frigate, received the Ukrainian flag, the number U-130, and became known as Hetman Sahaidachny. Sevastopol raid

In general, this is the Sevastopol Bay.

In general, this is what Sevastopol Bay is like.

October 2012

The largest of the Sevastopol bays is Sevastopol Bay itself. Its other names are Ktenus, Ktenunt, Kalamita Estuary, Korsun Sivash, Akhtiarskaya, Inkermanskaya, Bolshaya, Big Roadstead, Sevastopol Roadstead, Main Roadstead, Chersonesos Estuary. In the Sevastopol Bay there are smaller bays: Yuzhnaya, Severnaya, Artileriyskaya, Holland, etc.

While walking along the embankment, we were enticed to take a ride on a pleasure boat along the entire Sevastopol Bay.

Our boat trip took place on this trough. A portrait of Stalin hung next to the helm; the ship was steered by a young guy - a true patriot of Sevastopol and Russia.

Cape Pavlovsky. On the shore you can see the obelisk of the destroyer Svobodny, which broke into the besieged city on June 10, 1942 during the second defense of Sevastopol, escorting a transport loaded with food and ammunition. The destroyer was attacked by fifteen German bombers and, despite the courage of the crew, sank.

In addition to warships, there are a large number of civilian ships in the bay.

Suddenly, the raid longboat RBK-1299 of the Russian Black Sea Fleet sailed past us. In the background are ships of the Ukrainian fleet.

The rescue ship "Epron" is a veteran of the Black Sea Fleet, it is more than fifty years old, took part in many rescue operations, refloated several dozen ships and civilian vessels in the Black and Mediterranean Seas, and ensured the evacuation of refugees from Sukhumi in 1993.

The sea tug "MB-23" is part of the Black Sea Fleet, provides mooring, towing of ships and vessels, and is on duty as part of the rescue squad. Every year it participates in ship gathering cruises, providing artillery and missile firing and equipping target positions.

The flagship of the Black Sea Fleet is the guards missile cruiser Moskva. Designed to strike large enemy surface ships, ensure combat stability of ship-based anti-submarine groups, air defense of remote formations, and fire support.

The cruiser is equipped with P-1000 Vulcan missile systems capable of carrying nuclear warheads with a yield of 350 kilotons. From August 10 to August 23, 2008, the ship, as part of a naval formation of heterogeneous forces, took part in supporting the peacekeeping operation “Peace Enforcement”, being in the eastern part of the Black Sea.

The Samum hovercraft and the Mirage small missile ship.

The patrol ship "Inquisitive" (board number 808), then the large anti-submarine ships "Smetlivy" (810) and "Kerch" (713).

A large grain terminal has been built in Sevastopol (pictured in the background), capable of storing 100 thousand tons of grain and loading it at a speed of 1200 tons per hour.

Almost the entire Ukrainian navy, at the time of our boat trip, fit into one frame. U510 is the control ship “Slavutich”, U310 is the patrol ship “Izmail”, U500 is also a control ship converted from a floating workshop. The remaining ships of the Ukrainian fleet were apparently at sea for exercises. Ukraine also has one submarine, which, they say, if it dives, it will never surface again.

Between Artillery Bay and northern shore The ferry regularly runs from Sevastopol Bay, because by car you have to make a journey of about 40 km on land. “Admiral Lazarev” crosses the bay in a few minutes, which is of course faster, and transporting a car costs about the same as it would be spent on gasoline.
