Lisy Nos

Lisy Nos (Лисий Нос) is a municipal settlement (a work settlement) in Saint Petersburg, Russia, located on the northern shore of the Gulf of Finland. It's part of the Kurortny District of the city.

The name "Lisy Nos" translates literally to "Fox Nose" in Russian. The origin of the name is thought to be related to the shape of the cape on which the settlement is located, which resembles the snout of a fox.

Historically, Lisy Nos has served as a strategic location, particularly for naval and military purposes due to its position along the Gulf of Finland. Over time, it has transitioned into a residential area, with a mix of permanent residents and those with seasonal or weekend homes.

The settlement is accessible by road and public transportation from Saint Petersburg. Its proximity to the city and its location on the Gulf of Finland make it a popular destination for recreation and leisure activities.
