Agzybirchala (Azerbaijani: Ağzıbirçala) or Davachi limany[1] (Azerbaijani: Dəvəçi limanı) is a swampy freshwater lake on the shores of the Caspian Sea.[2] In the past, the lake was an estuary and was of a great fishery importance.[3] So, in the 30s of the 20th century, 500 - 600 centners of fish per year were caught in it.[4] It is located in the Samur-Davachi lowland on the territory of the Shabran district of Azerbaijan. The area is 13.8 km² and the volume is 10 m³.[5]
The rivers Shabran, Davachi and Takhtakorpu flow into the lake Agzybirchala, where from it takes its beginning the 4-kilometer Garadakhna river which flows out into the Caspian Sea.[3]
Birds hunting and fishing is practiced here during the hunting season.[3]
