The Golygina (Russian: Голыгина)[1] is a river on the southwest coast of the Kamchatka Peninsula. It flows into the Sea of Okhotsk. It is 112 kilometres (70 mi) long, and has a drainage basin of 2,100 square kilometres (810 sq mi).[2] A Russian expedition under Vladimir Atlasov first reached it in the last decade of the seventeenth century.[3]
