Krusenstern Strait
Krusenstern Strait is a strait that separates the islands of Raikoke and Shiashkotan in the Kuril Islands, Russia. It is separated into two passages by the Lovushki Rocks and is 61.2 km wide. A strong northwest tidal current creates tide rips; eddies and whirlpools may also form at times.
This strait was named after Russian admiral and explorer Adam [Johann von Krusenstern].
