text: Cape Aya is a rocky promontory jutting out into the Black Sea southeast of Balaklava. This 13-km-long spur of the Crimean Mountains separates Laspi Bay from Balaklava Bay. The name of the cape derives from "holy one" in Greek, “Άγια”. The highest point, Kokiya-Kiya is 559 m (1,834 ft). The headland is full of grottoes; it is protected as a national zakaznik. A storm off Cape Aya is the subject of one of Ivan Aivazovsky's paintings. A Soviet guided missile system was located on Cape Aya. Viktor Y
