Kambalny Bay

The waters off Cape Kambalny lie at the southwestern end of Kamchatka, where the peninsula faces the Sea of Okhotsk. The Kambalny volcanic ridge rises behind the coast, and a rocky island stands near the cape. Its steep shores provide resting places for sea lions and nesting seabirds. This is a cold, exposed coast at the northern end of the island arc that extends south towards the Kurils.
