Abstract
The article examines the problems and prospects of the revival of coastal water transport in the Northern Black Sea Coast of Ukraine. One of the main features of seaside cities is the use of water transport, which is one of the oldest forms of transport and remained the most important until the advent of transcontinental railways in the second half of the 19th century. Small hydrofoils were widely used on the territory of the Odesa coast, and the restoration of these routes and infrastructure will bring undeniable benefits. At the moment, a limited number of vessels are operating. The main reason for the restoration of this type of transport is the extreme necessity due to the destruction of bridges and railway junctions along the coastal zone of Ukraine due to the bombings of the Russian Armed Forces. It will take a lot of time and money to restore bridges and crossings throughout the country, so an alternative in the form of the SPK can help restore connections between all southern regions of Ukraine and the Black Sea near abroad. Although there are not many factories for the production of this type of ships, there are enough of them around the world, buying them is faster and easier than building bridges with the complete restoration of the entire infrastructure, as well as its demining.
 The article presents the history of the use of small vessels on hydrofoils, gives an example of the restoration of seasonal water traffic on the route Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi – Ovidiopol settlement – Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, as an alternative to the destroyed bridge in Zatoka. Considered the history of the construction of a railway-car bridge between two torn parts of the Budak spit (1955) so that it would not be necessary to travel an extra 40 kilometers along the perimeter of the Dniester estuary from the extreme south of Odesa region – Vylkove, Kiliya, Izmail, in the direction of Odesa. An analysis of the latest research and publications in the field of urban planning, economics, organization of tourist transportation, etc. was made.
