Physical regularities of liquid free fluctuations in the Sea of Azov arising after constant wind has stopped, are analyzed. The simulations are done by a nonlinear three-dimensional sigma-coordinate model. Its application permits to define spatial characteristics of seiche-like fluctuations, arrangement of nodal lines and velocities of the arising currents. The seiche-like fluctuations' amplitudes and periods are studied for the stations located on the coast and the points of the Azov Sea deep c
