Ichmeler Bay
Description:
Ichmeler Bay is located on the Datcha Peninsula. Hills covered with pine trees, mineral springs flowing directly into the sea, and the ruins of an ancient monastery on an island deep in the bay made this place famous.
The beaches of Ichmeler Bay are recognized as the best in the region, there are numerous clubs and bars. This place is considered a major yachting center. The sand spit of Kyzkum divides the bay into two parts, giving this area a unique flavor. Divers can explore local underwater caves, as well as explore the remains of ancient pottery, in many preserved at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea.
