Remote, rugged, and stunningly beautiful, the coasts of the Russian Far East are about as off-the-beaten-path as you can get. Covering the North Pacific and crossing beyond the Arctic Circle, the eastern seaboard of Russia is a vast collection of pristine landscapes, jagged mountains, volcanic islands, and lush habitats thriving with Arctic life. Cruise ships call on several ports, including Anadyr, Petropavlosk-Kamchatskiy, and Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, as well as significant landmarks such as the Bering Strait, Cape Dezhnev, and Wrangel Island.
