Search flights to Petropavlovsk

Petropavlovsk city, the center of the Kamchatka administration unit on the eastern tip of the Russian Federation, is a port city. According to 2002 data, there is a population of approximately 200,000 people in the city, which is located on the coast of Avaçinskaya Bay.

The horizon can not be seen from the city, as it is surrounded by volcanoes and located in a mountainous region. The Rybachiy Nuclear Submarine Base, established by the Soviet regime in the city, is still being used by the Russian navy. Approximately twenty major tourism companies operate in the city, which is located 6000 kilometers from Moscow and 2000 kilometers from Vladivostok, and cater to Russian adventure tourists who come for interesting activities such as bear hunting, fishing, and paragliding. With no connection between the rest of the world and the Kamchatka Peninsula, visits to this region can be a bit expensive. But in order to see the extraordinary scenery witnessed along the way, tourists still prefer to visit here. The local airport with connections to the rest of Russia is called Petropavlovsk Kamchatka Airport.
