The purpose of this work is to comprehensively study the ecological and geological conditions and results of monitoring studies of the coastal territories of the Bay of Taganrog and the Sea of Azov to identify indicators for assessing natural risks. The object of research is a complex system of the coastal zone, consisting of subsystems of land, sea and coast. The subject of the study is the assessment of the risk of loss of territory as a result of various natural factors, both constant over time (geological structure, height of the coastal cliff) and changing (dynamics of the level, waves, wind conditions). Within this framework, we show the use of a dynamic approach for zoning the shores of the Sea of Azov, performed based on a comprehensive analysis of natural and anthropogenic factors that determine the development of dangerous coastal processes (DCP). All factors divided into two groups: those that increase the intensity of coastal processes and those that contribute to reducing their manifestations. It established that hydrodynamic factors in the development of DCP are the determining factors. Anthropogenic impact can be associated with both global and regional impacts, through ecosystem changes, regulation of river flow, environmental pollution, and local – irrational coastal protection, industrial and agricultural activities in the coastal zone, unauthorized removal of beach material, etc.
