Dagestan Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Dagestan, Russia.

The reserve spans two main sections: the Kizlyar Bay with its marine waters and the Sarykum sand dunes near the Caspian Sea coast.

The Dagestan Nature Reserve received official protection status in 1987, following decades of scientific research about the region's ecological significance.

The reserve connects with traditional lands of Kumyk, Nogai, and other Dagestani peoples who maintained ecological practices in the region for centuries.

The reserve contains multiple educational paths and observation points where visitors can study migratory birds and marine species throughout different seasons.

The territory includes the Sarykum Dune, which rises 262 meters and stands as the largest single sand dune formation in Eurasia.
