    Charm Of South Primorie

    During this tour you will visit the most southern island in Russia – island of Phurugelma, on which the largest in the world colonies of slaty-backed gulls and Ussuri cormorants are settled.

    On this island you still can find a powerful quadruple turret (it is the only coastal turret on the Primorsky territory that was used during military actions in the years of the Second World War).

    Under-water vertical rock walls are fully covered with mussel druses, actinia fields, starfishes, sea urchins and many other sea inhabitants. This place is noted as one with the highest density of sea species settlements. On the stony sea bottom there are thickets of two-meter high kelp. The sand bottom abounds in flat sea-urchins. There is the largest gathering in this reserve of Japanese scallop near the island of Phurugelma. Here you can often encounter the tropical newcomers: blue swimmer crab, trumpet fish, sargassum fish and others. On small ice ramparts near the island there are breeding-grounds of largha seals.

    The objects to be shown in the far eastern sea reserve are geological, archaeological and historical monumens, under-water, littoral and island settlements of animals and plants.
