The river is 367 km long, the catchment area is 13400 kmΒ² [4] . By the area of ββthe Khatyrka basin, it occupies the 8th place among the Chukotka rivers and the 74th in Russia [5] .
The name is translated from Chuk. Vatyrkan - "a dry, exhausted place." The first description of the river was left by the Russian merchants Bakhov and Novikov, who stopped at the mouth of Khatyrka in 1748 [6] .
It takes its source on the northern slopes of the nameless mountain (1050 m) [7] of the Koryak Upland , flows into the gorge in the upper and middle parts, reaches the heavily boggy plain in the lower reaches, where the channel breaks into branches and flows into the Bering Sea . The mouth of the river and the Bolshoi island located here in the middle of the stream are separated from the sea by the oblique Direct [8] .
The spring-summer period accounts for up to 90% of the annual water flow. From January to April, the river may freeze in places.

At the mouth of the river is the national village of Khatyrka .
In 1965-66 complex geological and hydrological work was carried out in the Khatyrka basin, according to the results of which the prospects of the regionβs oil and gas potential were determined [9] .
Khatyrkite , a unique mineral of extraterrestrial origin, was discovered in the river basin [10] .
On the Khatyrka River, commercial salmon fishing is carried out with an established annual quota of 190 tons (2003) [11] , as well as smelt (30 tons, 2010) [12] .
