Kurortne

Kurortne - is a village and scientific center at the foot of Karadag next to Koktebel. It arose on the southeastern coast of Crimea in the late 19th - early 20th centuries.

Originally, it was called Nizhny Otuz after the Otuz River, which flows into the sea here. In 1901, the abandoned estate "Karadah" was purchased by Terentiy Vyazemskyi, a private associate professor of the Moscow University, to study the nature of Crimea. In 1907-14, the Karadah Biostation was created here (now it is a branch of the Institute of Biology of the Southern Seas of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, and a dolphinarium works.). In 1945, the village was renamed Crimean Primorye, and in 1978 it received the status of a small town and the new name Kurortne.
