Ilyinka is located on the regional road that connects Astrakhan with the Liman district administrative center in the southwestern part of the oblast . This branches off a few kilometers north of the town from the old route of the federal trunk road R216 , which leads from Astrakhan via the Kalmyk capital Elista to Stavropol (a new route runs a little further northwest as a large bypass of Astrakhan). The regional road is a continuation of the R22 Kaspi from Kaschira near Moscow and also part of the European route 119 , which continues along the west coast of the Caspian Sea towards Dagestan and Azerbaijan .
