Akhtanizovsky Estuary - one of the largest freshwater reservoirs of the Krasnodar Territory . At an area of ​​about 90 sq. Km . km its depth hardly exceeds 1, 5 m . Akhtanizovskaya - a paradise not only for fishermen . The shores of the estuary are covered with cane, in the thickets of which there are beautiful creeks with pink lotuses and egg-caps . Also there grows a rare water chestnut - chilim . Thanks to the numerous small reservoirs in the vicinity here are full of waterfowl, and a little further from sea ​​- wading birds, that such as different species of herons, bittern, chomga and t . d . And further into the reeds begin to grow reeds where wild pigs and foxes live .

The most strange inhabitant of reeds near the Akhtanizovsky estuary is the muskrat, which was brought here from North America. Their huts can be seen in reeds, at a height of up to a meter above the water.

In the south-west of Akhtanizovskaya there is a place with a specific name Akhtanizovskaya Bleak (another option is a spittle) . We are more accustomed to the word "hummock", the more so it is: it rises to 65 m above sea level . Sopka is an active mud volcano: at its top you can see a blue-gray clay, which reminds that up to the most recent time the volcano was constantly boiling, erupting rhythmic tremors . Today the volcano doze off, and on the site of the crater, those who wish can view the dry funnel, but next to it, new splashes of clay lava often emerge (easier to say mud) .

Another mud attraction in the vicinity of Akhtanizovskaya is the mud lake Sinyaya Balka. It is a rounded crater with a diameter of approximately 17 m. The curative gray clay that fills it has a sufficiently high density so that it can be safely bathed in the lake, despite its considerable depth of 25 m.

The flag and the coat of arms are very colorful Akhtanizovskaya (one duplicates the other). They depict the yellow triangle of the mountain on a saturated blue background, and above it - a bunch of grapes.

The more "clean" and eye-pleasing sight of Akhtanizovskaya is the lotus valley . The lotuses in Akhtanizovskaya were artificially planted, but today they grew so much that became one of the most beautiful local attractions . In order to get here by car, you need to go from the village of Golubitskaya towards Anapa and turn right after the bridge through the artificial canal Kazachy Eric . It makes sense, after hitting the valley, to take to the arena at the boat to get maximum impressions . Another option is to order a complex excursion to the lotus valley from Golubitskaya or Anapa .

Another village that is part of the settlement is the small Za Rodinu, neighbor of Peresypi . Nearby, on Mount Tizdar, there is also a mud volcano - the same volcano, although sometimes it's called Blue Balka . The mountain goes into the sea, and directly flows into the water streams of bluish clay with antiseptic properties . Another tourist attraction of the village For the Motherland is an ostrich farm .

This is one of the oldest monuments related to the early period of the Stone Age in Eastern Europe .
