A bay in the northeast of the Azov Sea, the largest estuary in the North Caucasus (area about 244 km²). It is separated from the sea by the Yeya and Glafirovskaya sand spits at the mouth of the Yeya River. It is separated from the Sea of Azov by a narrow spit Yeyskaya and communicates with the sea, or, more correctly, with the Taganrog Bay through a narrow passage. It is well protected from the winds.
It is about 24 km long, up to 13 km wide and up to 3.2 m deep. The resort town of Yeisk is situated on the western bank of the bay.
At the confluence of the Yei River into the Yei Liman began the northeastern border of the Caucasus region of the Russian Empire.
