Lake Bolshoye Morskoye, Protected lake in Nizhnekolymsky District, Sakha Republic, Russia.
Lake Bolshoye Morskoye spans 205 square kilometers in the northern part of the Kolyma Lowland, featuring an oval shape without any islands.
The lake and its surrounding 38,200 hectares received protected status to maintain the natural environmental conditions of the Sakha Republic.
The name Bolshoye Morskoye translates to Big Sea, while local communities also refer to it as Mainychin Ankavatyn in their traditional language.
The lake remains frozen from late September until early June, with the nearest settlement of Pokhodsk located 130 kilometers to the southeast.
The Ankavaam River flows from Lake Bolshoye Morskoye for 67 kilometers before joining the Bolshaya Chukochya River as its left tributary.
