Adalary rock islands
White rocks
Crimea, Hurzuf
Romantic symbol of the village. They are located in a picturesque place opposite Artek at a distance of 200-300 meters from the coast.
The nearest rock has a depth at the base of about 14 meters, and the far one - up to 38 meters.
The rocks of Adalara are two islands with a diameter of 20-30 m. The distance between them is about 40 m. The strait between the rocks and the shore is about 200 m.
The twin rocks of Adalara are a place of pilgrimage for both underwater and ordinary tourists. The steep slopes of the rocks are covered with various algae, around which you can find a lot of fish. The flounder lives at the bottom.
Since ancient times, the area of these rocks has been used for laying ships, so there is a high probability of finding fragments of ceramics, anchors and fragments of ships and cargo. At a small distance from the rocks (up to 100 meters), at a depth of about 40 meters, fragments of clay products of the 12th-16th centuries are regularly found on the sandy bottom. Lucky divers find whole amphoras.
