A map of the landscape-morphological structure of the middle part of the Vityazevskaya bay bar is presented. The map was compiled on the basis of the interpretation of digital aerial pictures at a scale of 1:2000 for the coastal zone of the bay bar and images from the SPOT-6 satellite at a scale of 1:5000 for around lagoon lowlands. The distinctive features of this bay bar area were identified: the development of a wide strip of beach dunes in the absence of the frontal dunes behind the beach; periodic storm seawater flooding of areas of around lagoon lowlands, separated by relic accumulative forms; the presence in the rear and middle beach areas of soil moistening and thickening of vegetation in connection with the inflow of water from the around lagoon lowlands coming by channel and hollows of runoff. The identified features must be considered when developing measures for the recreational development of the bay bar territory.
