The Tuzla Spit is located on the Taman Peninsula and goes to sea in side of Ukraine. We spent there literally half a day, since overnight not part of our plans. But the place is great for wild resting with a tent. By car you can drive there at any time. The beginning of the Tuzla Spit is free to visit (about 2 km), and here, to get to the other half of the spit (equipped Kerch beach), you will have to pay a couple of hundred rubles from the car.

It is strange that if the payment goes exactly for the Kerch beach (toilets, shower, dressing rooms), then why is it only 500 meters long, and the rest of a kilometer and a half is no different from free parts of the braid. But in fairness it should be said that on the paid the territory outside the Kerch beach is worth as much as one bio-toilet that It is very important, because you can walk only in the sea.
We have reached the very edge of the spit, and this is a few kilometers narrow sushi strips. Landscapes, of course, will remain in memory for a long time.
