Welcome to Zatoka!
Zatoka village (Odessa region) - small butcozy, well maintained, with well-developed infrastructure. The status of "urban settlement" granted him a long time. And quite rightly. The location of the village is Belgorod-Dniester district, between the Black Sea and the Dniester estuary. From Karolino-Bugaz in the direction of Sergeevka a long spit is issued into the sea, on which the village of Zatoka was laid in 1827. Odessa region, of course, did not exist yet. And the village itself arose as a result of the opening of a lighthouse on the coast and the consolidation of a crew of seamen with it for service. Subsequently, the place became inhabited by people, was upset, communications appeared. Next came the modern administrative division. And now Zatoka is the Odessa region, and not Tsargrad-Dniester district, as it was almost 2 centuries ago. The very same coast - with clean fine-grained sand, whose width is almost 50 meters, and the length of 5 km, turned into excellent beaches and attracts thousands of resort visitors. Therefore, in the season, the population of the village, rather small in number, increases almost threefold.
