About this place

Biryuchyi Island is a place near Kyrylivka, by the Sea of Azov, where you can relax and enjoy the rare beauty of Ukrainian nature. The island territory is part of a protected area, so people come here not only for sun and sea bathing, but also to see rare species of animals and plants. The island was opened to tourists only in 2015. Before that, only high-ranking officials could be here, such as M. Khrushchov and L. Kuchma; V. Putin stayed at the presidential residence here, and later V. Zelenskyi as well.

The wild animal world is impressive and inspiring. Seeing a herd of wild deer on Biryuchyi Island is not unusual, but commonplace. The island has all the conditions for a holiday, so you can come here not only for an excursion, but also for a full summer break. For those planning to stay here for a long time, it is worth renting kayaks for a sea trip or arranging a photo hunt for wild animals. On Biryuchyi Island, you can see ancient stone babas and Scythian burial mounds. No less interesting to see is the former Khrushchov dacha.
