The channel into the Gulf of Anadyr through the bar is in the east. The [[Anadyr Lowlands]] are located to the west.<ref name="GЕ">[[Google Earth]]</ref>

Anadyrsky Liman is divided into three parts. The outer bay receives the [[Tretya River]] (its mouth is the notch on the south shore). The southern part of the outer bay is shallow. The inner bay is called [[Onemen Bay]] and receives the [[Velikaya River (Chukotka)|Velikaya]] through a narrow bay on the southwest. They are separated by a promontory, with the [[Anadyr (town)|town of Anadyr]] at its tip. North of the promontory is a series of lakes which form the mouth of the [[Kanchalan River]]. The [[Anadyr River]] enters the inner bay from the west. The lake south of the Anadyr in this image is [[Lake Krasnoye Chukotka|Lake Krasnoye]].<ref>DMA 96621 "Anadyrsky Liman and Zaliv 1" United States Defence Mapping Agency, now under [[National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency]] (NGIA)</ref><ref>United States Hydrographic Office (1909).
