You can see on the map above. The sea is located in Europe and belongs to the Atlantic Ocean with which it is connected by straits and seas.

The chain from the Black Sea to the Atlantic Ocean is as follows: in the southwest of the Black Sea through the Bosporus, the sea connects with the Sea of ​​​​Marmara, the Sea of ​​Marmara through the Dardanelles connects with the Aegean Sea, the Aegean Sea connects with the Mediterranean, and the Mediterranean Sea in the west through the Strait of Gibraltar connects with the Atlantic Ocean.

One of interesting facts about the past of the Black Sea is that it was a huge freshwater lake, which in just a few decades (according to various estimates from 1 to 50 years) became a salty sea. This happened as a result of an increase in the level of the world ocean and blurring of the barrier between the Sea of ​​Marmara and the then lake, forming the Bosphorus Strait.

By the way, why is the Black Sea called black?

According to one version, in ancient times, boats and ships that have been in the Black Sea darken and turn black where the tree came into contact with water. A similar effect is obtained due to hydrogen sulfide, which is filled with the Black Sea. When exposed to hydrogen sulfide on a tree, it turns black, of course, people paid attention to this and I believe it is from here that the Black Sea got its name.

Hydrogen sulfide in the Black Sea

Hydrogen sulfide, as you probably know, is a colorless gas with the smell of rotten eggs. In large quantities, the gas is poisonous and of course it comes out and sometimes quite violently.

This gas, by the way, is flammable! It was said that lightning falling into the sea where there was a sufficient concentration of this gas ignited.

Hydrogen sulfide is found in large quantities at depths of 100 meters and at the very bottom. Therefore, there are almost no living organisms at depth, and in general, there are several times fewer of them in the Black Sea than in the neighboring Mediterranean.

After the annexation of Crimea to Russia, there were changes in the maritime borders in the Black Sea. As a result of this, most likely, the South Stream gas pipeline will go along a different route. In addition, Russia is gaining new opportunities for exporting its products through the port in Kerch. It is interesting to get acquainted with the maps of the new frontiers. In the Black Sea, 12 nautical miles from the coast are the territorial waters of the state, 250 miles constitute a special economic zone. According to the 2003 agreement on the Sea of ​​Azov, the territorial waters of the countries are limited to a 5-kilometer zone, the rest of the waters are in joint economic possession. In addition to this, you can look at the project of a new bridge connecting the Taman Peninsula with the Crimea. The Greeks called the Strait of Kerch the Cimmerian Bosphorus, but the Greeks called the strait separating Asia Minor from the Balkan Peninsula the Thracian Bosphorus.
P.S. I think few people know that the legendary Colchis of the Argonauts was located not at all in swampy Georgia, as some philologists naively believe, but ... on the banks of the Thracian Bosphorus ("Bull Pass"). The ships of the ancient Achaeans were called beads ("bulls") or minotaurs ("bulls of Minos") - that's why this strait was so named, sometimes the Achaeans called sea ships hippocampi ("sea horses"), so they had images or heads of a bull on their nose, or the head of a seahorse. The ancient Greeks called the Black Sea Pontus Euxinus (“hospitable Sea”, and the Phoenicians the North Sea (“Ashkenas”). But we will turn to Colchis after a careful study of the path of the Argonauts, which was the Golden Fleece - the purpose of their journey ...

Subtropical exoticism, hospitable people, an abundance of four- and five-star hotels- only the first stroke in the description of the Black Sea coast of Russia. Absence of necessity registration of additional documentation at the entrance makes this territory in the eyes of Russians much more attractive than foreign vacation spots.

The Black Sea coast on the world map

The Black Sea coast of Russia is located in the southwest of the country. From the north, the border of the region runs along Perekop Isthmus, which connects Crimea with Ukraine. The coastline stretches for 1200 km along the peninsula and further south to the border with Abkhazia in Adler.

During the Soviet Union and over the past decade, the region's infrastructure has made a decisive leap in pursuit of the prominent resorts of the globe.

Most of the Crimean peninsula moderate temperatures prevail and only on the extreme southern coast is the northern coil of the subtropics.

Near the 44th parallel, the continental region of the Black Sea divided by the Caucasus Mountains into temperate and subtropical climate zones.

The temperate zone extends from the Taman Peninsula to Anapa. The continental climate here is under the influence of the sea, therefore this region is generously warmed by the sun in summer and spared from winter frosts.

The northern arm of the Caucasus Range borders the subtropical zone. Dry subtropical climate dominates the territory from Anapa to Dzhubga (Tuapse district). In summer, the area often languishes from drought, and in winter it is irrigated by precipitation.

With the beginning of autumn, the heat begins to subside almost throughout Russia. Read about the September weather in Tuapse in this article.

High temperatures dominate from May to October, and then give way to mild winters. From Tuapse to Adler is located the northernmost zone in the world humid subtropics with a uniform distribution of precipitation over the seasons.

In the subtropical zone of the Black Sea 25-degree summer heat gives way to mild winter with temperatures slightly above zero.

Average temperatures range from 23 degrees in summer to zero in winter.
