Sasyk Lagoon
Odesa Oblast, Ukraine
Sasyk, or Kunduk (Romanian: Limanul Sasic, Conduc, Sasık Gölü, Kunduk Gölü), is a lagoon or liman in southern Ukraine, near the Danube Delta. It is a Ramsar listed wetland site important for migrating, breeding and moulting birds. About 25,000 pairs of wetland birds make their nests there (an increase of 15, 000 since 2000) and seasonal conglomerations of birds are up to 100,000 individuals. The area of the lagoon is 241.88 square kilometres (93.39 sq mi), and has a depth up to 3.3 metres (11 ft). Until 1978 the lagoon was separated into two parts: northern brackishwater area, including the rivers Cogâlnic and Sarata, and a southern marine area. The lagoon was separated from the sea by a 0.5 kilometres (0.31 mi) wide sandbar.
