▲The '''Gulf of Anadyr''', or '''Anadyr Bay''' ({{lang-langx|ru|Анадырский залив}}), is a large bay on the [[Bering Sea]] in far northeast Siberia. It has a total surface area of {{cvt|200000|km2|abbr=on}}
 
==Location==
The bay is roughly rectangular and opens to the southeast. The corners are (clockwise from the south) Cape Navarin (another source says the adjacent Cape Thaddeus), [[Anadyr Estuary]], [[Kresta Bay]] and [[Cape Chukotsky]] on the [[Chukchi Peninsula]]. It is about {{cvt|250.|mi|nmi miles (400&nbsp;km)}} across. A long gravel bar runs along the northeast shore for about {{convert|45|mi|nmi km}} east from Kresta Bay. The Gulf of Anadyr is covered with ice normally 10 months a year. Whales[[Whale]]s such as [[Bowheadbowhead Whalewhale|Bowheadbowhead]] and [[Graygray Whalewhale|Graygray]] may appear close to shoresshore.
 
==Civilization==
The town of [[Anadyr (town)|Anadyr]], the administrative centre of [[Chukotka Autonomous Okrug]], is located on the Anadyr Estuary. [[Provideniya]], on Komsomolskaya Bay (formerly Emma Harbor; a branch of [[Provideniya Bay]]), and [[Egvekinot]], on Kresta Bay, are the next largest coastal settlements.
