Geography
Included in the Evpatoria group of lakes . Length - 2.0 km, the widest - 0.8 km. The average depth is 0.85 m, the largest is 1.55 m [6] or 0.45 m [7] . Altitude: m. The nearest settlement is the village of Molochnoe , located north of the lake.
Terekly is separated from the Black Sea by the isthmus along which the road passes without a hard surface. The lake basin of a reservoir of irregular rounded elongated shape, elongated from west to east. The banks are gentle. Rivers do not flow; in the northeast, rhizome flows. To the west of the lake in the immediate vicinity is the Round Lake, to the east - Konrad, between which there is a paved road to the village of Molochnoye.
At the bottom lies a thickness of bottom sediments: silty black in the upper layer, then gray and steel-gray, sometimes with a bluish tint. Higher aquatic vegetation develops successfully only in the desalinated upper reaches of lakes and at the outlets of low-mineralized groundwater. The lake is overgrown with aquatic vegetation mainly in desalinated areas - in lagoons near embankments, in the mouths of flowing beams, in the area of groundwater outlets. Here, various algae intensively develop, up to the flowering of water. In some years, algae give a reddish or greenish tint to lake brine in summer.
The average annual rainfall is about 400 mm . Nutrition: mixed - surface and groundwater of the Black Sea artesian basin , sea filtration water.
History

The system was opened on August 18, 1989 [8] . The tram finally stopped working in the summer of 2016 [9] .
Economic Significance
Mud (silt sulfide of the coastal type) of the lake as a result of economic activity lost their therapeutic purpose [10] .
