Strelkovoye

Strelkovoye is a village located in the Kherson Oblast of Ukraine. Situated on the Kinburn Spit, it is a coastal settlement known for its natural environment and proximity to the Black Sea. The village is part of the Ochakiv Raion.

The Kinburn Spit is a sandy peninsula that forms part of the Dnieper-Bug Estuary and the Black Sea coast. This geographical feature provides Strelkovoye with access to both estuarine and marine waters, contributing to its unique ecosystem. The area is characterized by sand dunes, beaches, and various types of vegetation adapted to coastal conditions.

Historically, the region has seen periods of settlement and strategic importance due to its coastal location. Strelkovoye itself is a relatively small community, with a population engaged primarily in activities related to the sea, such as fishing, and increasingly, tourism, especially during the summer months. The natural beauty of the Kinburn Spit attracts visitors seeking recreational opportunities like swimming, sunbathing, and exploring the natural landscapes.

The village's infrastructure is typical of a rural settlement in the region, with basic amenities to support its residents and seasonal visitors. Access to Strelkovoye is primarily by road, though its location on a spit can present logistical considerations. The environmental significance of the Kinburn Spit also means that conservation efforts are often a consideration for the area.
