Shalaurova

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shalaurova Island (Ostrov Shalaurova) is a small island in the eastern end of the East Siberian Sea. It is close to the coast, being only 1.2 Km away from a landhead located west of the estuary of the Pegtymel River. It lies roughly midway between Cape Shelagskiy and Cape Billings in the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug.

This island is only 0.8 Km across.

Shalaurova island should not be confused with Cape Shalaurova (Mys Shalaurova Izba) located further west on the same coastline at 69.850° N 174.555° E.
