Antique amphoras, ceramics, anchors
We Dive from a boat opposite to St. Vladimir's cathedral where under the legend Vladimir Veliky was christened and whence the christening of Russia has begun. A place historical, known for the whole world. Depth – 18м. A relief – kru pnye stones, sand. Consistently we pass two small grottoes, one consists as though of two arches in different levels. We go along a ridge and on depth nearby 20, in a crevice it is visible polutoramerovyj jako r 19 centuries. Further the ridge leads us to one more big anchor of the middle 19в with a chain scrap. The anchor - an admiral has perfectly remained. Costs vertically and has strongly enough got stuck in stones. On it scraps of cords and even the broken off rubber parachute – certificates of unsuccessful attempts of its lifting are visible. We leave moristee, to border of sand and stones. Depth – 22 m. Among stones and sand sobira I eat long (at times to metre) tubes and plates of artillery gunpowder. Quite often here again splinters of antique pottery are visible, it is a lot of handles from amphoras, a tile with an inscription «Marseilles, 1853». On g pунте, among stones and sand it is a lot of bull-calves, ruffs and zelenuhi are frequent.

We Dive from a boat, opposite to Victory park. Depth–20 m. a bottom Relief – equal. Large stones, sand. On a ground it is a lot of rapana. Widespread in Crimea a craft on meat extraction rapany why at n concerns this place a little. And each time, diving here, we collect a lot of cockleshell and crabs.
Bypassing the big boulders, we go in a direction to coast. The route is made in such a manner that we consistently pass different anchors – from a huge anchor from a battleship to rather small copies, presumably – from parusno-motor schooners. The age of finds fluctuates from 200 till 30-40 years, safety – quite satisfactory. In the end of a route depth decreases to 8 metres. A way to a boat we pass on picturesque stones, having made circulation to the southwest. Sometimes there are splinters of the French and English bottles from thick glass. After storm it is possible to find and цeлые, the completely not not damaged bottles. Inhabitants of a sea-bottom – the bull-calfe, a ruff, sultanka (barabulja), zelenuha, hamsa.
