The base is located on the Fedotaeva spit in the sea, on the street of the same name. The postal number of this institution is 231, and the index is 72563. At first glance, everything may seem difficult, but in fact it is easy to find the base. From Kirillovka depart two braids. One to the left (if you stand facing the sea), this is Peresyp. Another one to the right. This is Fedotova. It is a fairly narrow sandy natural formation, cutting into the sea for about 45 km. "Coral Island" (Kirillovka) from the beginning of the spit is quite far away, almost at the very end of a long row of other bases, tightly pressing against each other. Landmarks are fisheries and the Meliorator base. On the one hand, such a long-distance location is not entirely convenient, since if necessary, the village will need to travel for 20 minutes or more, depending on the capabilities of the vehicle.

Sea

Just a couple of minutes from the shore of the sea is the recreation center "Coral Island" (Kirillovka). Reviews of beach holidays, however, are ambiguous. The fact is that there is a fishing farm nearby. As in many enterprises, there are some nuances, for example, barges repaired on the shore, dead bulls floating sometimes in the water. And although to the beach of the base this has no direct relationship, some tourists are annoyed by this neighborhood. This problem is easily solved. The fact is that the b.o. "Coral Island" (Kirillovka) closes a number of bases and tourist complexes of the Fedotovaya spit, adjoining the famous Biryuch island. In fact, it is the same braid, only much wider. Walking literally 150 meters along the coast, you can get to a completely deserted and pristine clean beach, where there is no noise, or any, except for the sea, smells. Many people also like the beach near the base. Its main advantage is cleanliness. Harvest and rake clean sand here every morning.
