Cape Chameleon, which separates Tykha Bay from Koktebel Bay, got its name not so much because of its shape, but because of its ability to change color depending on the position of the sun, weather, lighting and season.
On modern maps, the cape is often called Tabirnyi, although there are no camps nearby. The original name of the cape is Toprak-Kaya or Toprakh-Kaya, which in Turkic means "mud rock" or "earthen rock".
Cape Chameleon has been known for a long time: its image is on many Italian sea maps of the 14th - 15th centuries, and there are descriptions of it in old Russian lotions.
