Nakhodka Bay
Russia
Nakhodka Bay or Nakhodka Gulf (́ ́, zalív Nakhódka), historically called the Gulf of America (́ ́, zalív Amérika), is a bay of the Peter the Great Gulf of the Sea of Japan where the port Nakhodka is located. It is part of the Primorsky Krai of Russia. The Lisy Island protects the bay from open sea waves. The bay is one of the largest transport junctions in the Russian Far East; vessel traffic is extremely intensive here. The Gulf has four ports and four ship-repairing yards. It is a basic port for vessels of the largest companies, such as Primorsk Shipping Corporation (Prisco), and the base of the Active Marine Fishery. The modern name means '(lucky) find, discovery' in Russian. The Chinese called it Haizaotunwan (literally “Seaweed village bay”), due to the great amount of seaweed in the waters.
