Sevastopol Bay (Ukrainian: Севастопольська бухта; Russian: Севастопольская бухта) is a city harbor that includes a series of smaller bays carved out^{[clarification needed]} its shores. The bay of Sevastopol splits the city of Sevastopol into the Southern side and the Northern side. It serves as an extension of the Chorna River and stretches for 7.5 km (4.7 mi) which is the longest of them^{[clarification needed]} all.

The bay of Sevastopol stretches from the open sea eastward to the Inkerman Cave Monastery at the end, narrowing down and finishing at the mouth of the Chorna River. The bay forms the seaward approach to the city. Covering a large expanse of water, the harbor serves as a comfortable anchorage for a fleet.^[which?] From the beginning of the 20th century it housed cruisers and ironclads.^{[citation needed]}

The number of piers along the shores of the harbor far exceeds the number of bays.^{[citation needed]} The bay serves as a home to a commercial port as well as a naval base. Just outside of Sevastopol Bay is located a fishing port.
