The Olyutor Bay (Russian: Олюторский залив) is a gulf or bay of the Bering Sea in Olyutorsky District, northern part of Kamchatka Krai, Russia.[1]
It is bounded on the west by the Govena Peninsula which separates it from Korfa Bay and on the east by the Olyutor Peninsula, the southern part of the Olyutor Range. Beyond Cape Olyutor lies the Bering Sea.[2] [3]
It extends roughly 83km (52miles) inland and is 228km (142miles) at its widest. The deepest spot is about 1000m (3,000feet). The western shore is dominated by the Pylgin Range, which has a maximum elevation of 1357m (4,452feet). The bay is normally covered by fast ice from December to May. It has a large tidal range of up to 1.9m (06.2feet).
