The Estrecho de Kerch is a narrow strait located between the Crimea peninsula and the Taman Peninsula in Russia. It connects the Black Sea to the Sea of Azov and serves as an important maritime route for shipping and trade in the region. The strait is approximately 4 kilometers wide at its narrowest point. The Kerch Strait Bridge, completed in 2018, spans the strait and links Crimea to mainland Russia. This bridge is significant for transportation and has strategic importance due to its location. The strait is also known for its rich marine biodiversity and historical significance.
