* Many visitors coming to Sakhalin Island consider Cape Velikan to be the most beautiful place on the seashore. Apparently, it was not for nothing that it received the status of a natural monument of regional significance!
Cape Giant is a unique corner of wildlife, it is a stretch of the seashore with rocky remains, teeming with bird markets of seagulls, cormorants, swifts, puffins, seals can be seen lying on the protruding rocks.
Cape Ptitchiy is a part of the Cape Giant natural monument, and it is here that most of the unusual rock remains in the form of stone arches and pillars are located, on which numerous bird colonies are located. Locals gave their names to many of these rocks – "Warrior", "Dragon", "Arch", "Trapezoid", "three-legged Bird Arch".
These natural sculptures are located in amazing plastic bays, and from the shore, the picturesque mountains of the Tonino-Aniva range approach the sea, with dark coniferous forests located on them, in which the Ayan spruce and Sakhalin fir grow. You can see all this and much more on our one-day trip to Cape Giant. A real adventure awaits you.
