Yuzhno-Kurilsk Travel Guide
Russia
Yuzhno-Kurilsk is a small Russian town in the Kuril Islands, with a population of 6,465. Its remote position in the Russian Far East gives it a cool, maritime setting and a quieter feel than Russia’s larger cities.
Travellers arriving by air use Mendeleyevo Airport (DEE), the airport serving Yuzhno-Kurilsk. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so the town is better suited to visitors interested in its remote island setting than to a conventional beach holiday.
