Lisyacha bukhta
Lysyacha Bay is a bay of the Black Sea in the southeast of Crimea, between the Kara-Dag and Megan massifs. It is primarily known as one of the largest centers of naturists on the peninsula, and once the film "New Earth" was filmed here.
There is no sunbed gloss here: the shore is stony, with boulders and rocks. Instead, there is a local feature - gray volcanic mud "kile", with which they like to be smeared here instead of a spa. The roads lead mainly from the side of the village of Kurortne, mostly dirt roads, so the last part of the journey is on foot.
Nearby you should see Mount Echki-Dag, the cave "Ear of the Earth" and the landscape park "Lysiacha Buhta - Echki-Dag" itself, which has the status of regional since 2008. This is a wild, almost undeveloped area with tent sites and no resort infrastructure, so stock up on water and don't count on hotel service.
