Korsakov

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a little help on what to do on a day in Korsakov.

Visiting in October this year, from 0600 to 1800. I think we may need to use a cruise organised excursion, but they do offer a $15 ride to town. Once we get there, what is there to do?

The info I have found so far is all a bit negative - the museum is poor, there is no real tourism angle.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks in anticipation!

Hi Kristal Blade,

i can see your post had little response but Im sure you have spent a lot of time since then researching the port stop for Korsakov. We have a 1 day stop next April and am just starting to do the research. From what I can gleam there are no travel agents in Korsakov town but I have found a few in nearby Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. They seem to be advertising tours from 2 days up not short 1/2 or day tours. I have emailed a few & awaiting replies. Did you fine anything of interest?

Hi, you may do better to post this query on the Ports of Call-Asia forum as Korsakov is on the Pacific Coast of Russia, over 6000 klms from the Baltic and is visited by ships cruising around Japan.

Happy cruising, :)
