Cape Crillon
Cape Crillon (, "Nishinotoro-misaki" (Cape Nishinotoro in Japanese), ) is the southernmost point of Sakhalin. The cape was named by Frenchman Jean-François de La Pérouse, who was the first European to discover it. Cape Sōya, in Japan, is located to the south, across La Pérouse Strait. A Russian weather station, a lighthouse and a military base are all situated at Cape Crillon today. Cape Crillon is the Russian terminus of the proposed Sakhalin–Hokkaido Tunnel that would connect Japan and Russia by rail.
