Krestovskiy Island, Recreational island in Saint Petersburg, Russia

Krestovsky Island extends over 4.2 square kilometers in the Neva River delta, bordered by the Middle Nevka, Small Nevka, and Krestovka rivers.

The island received different names throughout history, including Khristoforovsky Island in 1741 and Saint Natalia Island in 1717 before its current designation.

The Primorsky Park of Victory occupies more than half of the island's territory, providing spaces for outdoor activities and public gatherings.

Two metro stations, Krestovsky Ostrov and Zenit, connect the island to Saint Petersburg's transportation network through multiple bridges and pedestrian paths.

The territory expanded by 17 hectares through land reclamation between 2013 and 2015, accommodating new developments including a yacht club.
