Moynaq was once a port on the Aral Sea; the water has retreated far away and old fishing vessels stand in rows on the dry seabed. A path runs from the ships along the former shoreline overlooking the Aralkum desert, with a museum and memorial nearby. The change is visible here in the wind, the salt and the dry bed.
