The Bering Sea

The Bering Sea

The Bering Sea is a part of the Pacific Ocean covering an area of ​​two million square kilometers. Bounded on the north and east by Alaska, west to Siberia in Russia, and south by the Alaska Peninsula and Aleutian Islands. The sea is named after its discoverer, the Dane Vitus Bering explorer.

With very cold weather and high waves, navigation is risky, also northern sea freezesin winter. The sea is rich in fishery resources, especially the King Crab.
