The Beresan Liman (Ukrainian Березанський лиман ) is a liman in the south of the Ukrainian Oblast Mykolaiv and forms the mouth of the 49 km long coastal river Beresan in the Black Sea .
Apart from a 400 m wide passage near the village of Rybakivka , a spit separates the Liman from the north coast of the Black Sea.
The Liman has a length of 20 to 26 km and covers an area of 60 km². Its width is between 0.6 km and 4 km and averages about 2.3 km. It has an average depth of 3.3 m and a maximum depth of about 15 m. The water volume of the Liman is 0.2 km³. In addition to the Beresan, the 45 km long Sassyk (Ukrainian Сасик ) flows into the Liman.
