Attractions of Myrnyi

Donuzlav is a salt lake in the western part of Crimea, unique in its size, configuration and ecosystem.

The medicinal composition of the water is a mixture of estuary oil, sea and spring waters. The northwestern part of Lake Donuzlav has been declared a reserve.

In 1962, the lake was connected to the sea by a narrow entrance channel, effectively becoming a bay of the Black Sea.

Until 1994, the Crimean naval base of the Black Sea Fleet was located in the port of "Donuzlav", which included units of anti-submarine naval aviation and fighter ships. The base of fighting dolphins has been transformed into a rehabilitation center of the Yevpatoriia Dolphinarium, dolphin therapy sessions (swimming with dolphins) are held.

Donuzlav Wind Power Plant (WPP) is the first wind power plant in Ukraine, the largest in the CIS at the time of its creation.

On a large area in the middle of the Crimean steppe, a geometric forest of tall masts with propellers of electric generators is located.

Built in 1993 under a joint agreement between Ukraine and the USA on the basis of licensed USW56/100 wind turbines. In total, more than 100 windmills with a total capacity of 11 MW have been installed, which is enough to provide electricity to the villages of Myrnyi and Novoozerne.

Nearby is the Myrnyi Wind Power Plant with 177 wind turbines with a total capacity of 21 MW.
