The reservoirs of the Primorsky Fish Farm are located near the shore of the Caspian Sea, near the village of Primorsky. The only road that leads deep into the Samur forest and to the seashore leads to this village. It houses a Fish Farm where the Caspian salmon population is being restored. If you have a car and you want to visit the most interesting sights of the Samursky forest: an 800-year-old plane tree and Trees in lianas, then you will drive past the reservoirs of the Primorsky fish farm. 

Upon reaching the base of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, you need to turn onto the Black Sand Beach and drive along the fence of the fish factory (the fence will be on the left). As soon as it ends, you will see several reservoirs. They accumulate fresh water for breeding salmon fry. Some reservoirs are not marked on the maps, but first you will see a small reservoir. It is completely overgrown with grass and reeds. Beautiful cottages have been built on its shore, which are rented to tourists. At the end of this reservoir, you need to make a stop near the Confluence of the Streams, where you will see large vines on which you can swing like on a swing. 

Further on there is a Large Pond of 60 hectares. It is connected to the Caspian Sea by a small stream. Upstream of this stream, the local kutum fish rises from the Caspian Sea into the pond to spawn. Flocks of this fish can be seen in the clear water near the stream.

The water in the lake is very warm in summer, as the pond is made artificially, and its water is used to fill the pools in the Primorsky fish factory. The water in them is very clean, quite suitable for swimming. Locals come here to fish and relax. The road to the 800-year-old sycamore tree goes from the left side of the lake.
