Description
In the eastern part of the bay, at the foot of Cape Rybachy, is the Engraving Bay , to which boat trips from Sudak are organized. This is one of the favorite places for scuba divers . There is an interesting natural surprise in the bay - the so-called elevator tower. In a huge underwater block of stone, there is a vertical opening that starts at a depth of about seven meters and then downwards by 8 to 10 meters. At the bottom, there are three exits from the hole, which allows you to swim out of the elevator shaft. Nearby is the "anchor cemetery." Such a multitude and variety of anchors of various sizes and designs is difficult to find even in museums.
Behind the Engraving Bay there is a small but very cozy Mussel Bay , or Midiya, as the locals call it. In the bay forever remained the Volga steamboat "Comrade Comrade Markina ” , which was planned to be a hotel. Now the ship is gradually being destroyed [2] .
In the western part of Kapselskaya Bay, Cape Franzuzhenka, composed of sedimentary rocks, protrudes into the sea. The cape is named after the Frenchwoman Justine Jacquard, who in the first third of the 19th century had an estate in this area [3] .
History
On November 11, 2007, during a severe storm in Kapselskaya Bay, the Ukrainian dry cargo ship Vera Voloshina, which was moving from Romania to Russia with a load of agricultural machinery, ran aground. In conditions of increasing storm, the captain decided to land the ship aground, but to save the crew. The bulk carrier threw it on the coastal stones. The case cracked, but there was no fuel leak. Rescue operations began immediately - a crew of 19 people were evacuated by employees of the Ministry of Emergencies of Ukraine and border guards. Tanks pierced coastal stones, and water poured into the hold, where there were about nine tons of diesel fuel. Due to numerous holes, the engine room and part of the holds where the barrels of engine oil were stored were in a half-flooded state. The remains of the ship were sold for scrap [4] .
