The bay is open to the northeast through a narrow and straight channel and is 130 km in length. Its maximum width is about 30 km and it has a branch or inlet extending northwards midway between its mouth and its most inland shore point. The [[Omullyakhskaya Bay]] lies north of Khromskaya Bay and shares the same mouth. ▼
