Geography
editNikolayevka is approximately 17 kilometres (11 mi) southwest of the city of Yelizovo, the Yelizovsky District's administrative center.[4] The village is also located several kilometers west of Avacha Bay.
Nikolayevka has historically been placed in the subarctic climate zone (Dfc) of the Köppen climate classification system, though analysis of 1991-2020 climate data has suggested the village now sits in the warm-summer humid continental climate zone (Dfb).[5][6]
History
editNikolayevka was founded in 1853 on the Paratunka River by peasants migrating eastward, and it was named in honor of Tsar Nicholas I.[citation needed] A leper colony was once located in the village.[citation needed]
On 31 August 2024, a Mil Mi-8 helicopter bound for Nikolayevka's local private airport crashed about 20 kilometres (12 mi) north of the village, killing all 22 occupants.[7][8] At the time, the helicopter was being used in a tour of the nearby Vachkazhets volcano.[9] On-board passengers included Arseny Zamyatin, the Russian Football Union's chief financial officer.[9]
