With use of high-resolution probe-turbulimeter "Sigma-1" field data on the distribution of hydrophysical parameters in the upper layer of the sea around the Herakleian Peninsula (The Crimea) are collected.Based on the analysis of these data according to the previously developed methodology, the scales of turbulent patches in a stratified layer have been evaluated.On the basis of physic-climatic and hydrological conditions, it can be argued that the main source of turbulence here is the internal
