Abstract. The report examines the results of field geological and geophysical work in the White Sea in 2023. Data from the interpretation of seismoacoustic work and geological sampling in 2022 in the central part of Kandalaksha Bay were also used. It is shown that as one moves towards the apex of Kandalaksha Bay, the Quaternary cover decreases and a continuous cover of moraine deposits appears. At the same time, the thickness of supraglacial sediments sharply decreases and, in the end, a thick horizon of glacial-marine sediments completely falls out of the section. All this requires a revision of views on the development of the northwestern part of the White Sea.

Keywords: White Sea, Kandalaksha Bay, Quaternary deposits, seismoacoustic profiling, paleogeography of the Late Pleistocene and Holocene
