Crimea is a peninsula

First of all, we want to introduce you to the peninsula itself, show you the famous and best resorts and beaches, name the attractions of each.

Let's turn to Wikipedia: it says that Crimea is a peninsula located in the north of the Black Sea, a little north to the east its shores are washed by the Sea of ​​Azov. Both seas warm up to +25…+28 °C in summer. During Stalin's times, Crimea became the “All-Union Health Resort”. In the 90s, the flow of ordinary tourists began to significantly exceed those who came here for health reasons.

The map is clickable and enlarges to readable sizes

Historically, tourists divide the territory of Crimea into four zones: south, west, east and center. According to the words and reviews of vacationing tourists from last year, places for family vacation and with a child there’s more than enough here.

For each guest there is a place to relax.

And we will take you through the cities along the entire sea coast from Kerch to Evpatoria.

Where is the best place to relax in Crimea - South

Southern Crimea is represented by the following resort towns and villages:

• Alushta

  It is believed that there is a city of Alushta and “Big Alushta” (the administrative territory of the city), on which the resort villages are located: Privetnoye, Utes, Partenit, Solnechnogorskoye, Rybachye, Malorechenskoye.

  The picturesque mountainous harbor protects the shore from waves and winds. Most beaches are paid. But unlike free ones, they are much cleaner and you don’t have to take up space so early. The shore is predominantly pebbly; closer to the center you can find a beach with a sandy and pebbly shore. There is entertainment for children on the beaches themselves: trampolines, mini-attractions.
  

  With your child you can visit the Alushta water park next to the Almond Grove hotel. The city is not far from Yalta - 30 kilometers. Therefore, we select excursion programs from Yalta: cable car to Mount Ai-Petri, Yalta Zoo, “Valley of Ghosts” on Mount Demerdzhi.

  Housing rental prices: private sector from 300 rubles per person, mini-hotels from 1000, hotels from 2000. Food prices are reasonable. On the coast there is an excellent chain store “PUD” with affordable prices.




The national resort of European destination is the pearl of the South Coast of Crimea (Southern Coast of Crimea). Do not confuse the city itself and the adjacent territory of the administrative part “Big Yalta”. “Greater Yalta” includes such resorts as Alupka, Gurzuf, Foros, Livadia, Gaspra, Simeiz and others.

The climate of these places is compared to Italian - there is sun almost all year round. There is a lot of vegetation on the coast. The bay itself is protected from above by a semi-ring of mountains. The beaches are a bit tight. Firstly, they are deep-sea and often of artificial origin, with a pebble shore. Secondly, everything best beaches distributed between hotels and resorts.


If you come to relax as “savages”, so to speak, and rent housing in the private sector, then you can go to the beach to sunbathe and swim in the sea only for money. Paid beaches It's cleaner here. There are also shareware, where you have to fork out just for a sunbed. But for free, it’s just “cheese in the trap” - the beaches are crowded and the sea is dirty. For a more comfortable stay by the water, you should choose places outside the city.

For children, in terms of entertainment, as well as for adults, there is plenty. As befits the central resort of Crimea. With a child, be sure to visit the Glade of Fairy Tales, 2 km from the city - this is a museum with hundreds of fairy-tale characters (adult ticket - 200 rubles, children's ticket - 80). Take your children to the crocodilarium (400 rubles for parents, 300 for children). There are seven species of crocodiles up to 4 meters and other reptiles.

Take a ride on cable car“Yalta-Gorka” (round trip – 300 rubles, children – 200). The loud name attracts the Yalta Oceanarium (this is just one name) - a small aquarium with several dozen species of fish, stingrays and a couple of crocodiles.

Away from the city along the coast " big Yalta» you can visit: the village of Massandra (where you can taste wines on an excursion to the famous winery), Livadia (popular because it summer residence Tsar Nicholas II), in Gaspra it is worth looking at the Swallow's Nest castle, in Miskhor there are the best and cleanest beaches, in Alupka there is the Vorontsov Palace (similar to the Taj Mahal), in Yalta itself - the palace of the Emir of Bukhara, the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral . And also A.P.’s dacha Chekhov, Nikitsky Botanical Garden, Mount Ai-Petri, 98-meter waterfall Uchan-Su.

Prices, of course, are the same as in Europe. Housing prices are steep and you won’t be able to find anything right away – it’s worth preparing in advance. In the private sector, rental housing starts from 800 rubles, hotels from 3000-3500. Products can be purchased in chain hypermarkets at generally available prices. Entertainment venues, of which there are a dime a dozen here, will require their percentage of the family budget. This resort cannot be called economical or budgetary, but everything is picturesque and beautiful places It’s worth seeing if you’ve already decided that it’s better to relax in Crimea this summer.

• Alupka

  An awesome resort on the South Coast (South Coast), but there is no entertainment here except for the sea with children. You will have to travel with your child to Yalta (30 minutes) or to the Simeiz water park (5 kilometers).

  The shore, and therefore the beaches themselves, are pebbly and narrow, with the exception of one “ Cote d'Azur"(sand predominates here). The village is located at the foot of the Ai-Petri mountain, so be sure to take a ride on the cable car. Alupka is famous for its famous Vorontsov Palace and “Swallow’s Nest” (in the town of Gaspar).
  

  Accommodation in the private sector can be rented from 500 rubles per person, hotels will cost more from 1000-1500. With food prices, like at other resorts, there are chain stores. In cafes and canteens, you will leave 200-300 rubles for a minimum snack.

• Gurzuf with Artek

  Eco-friendly resort Southern Crimea is located near the Ayu-Daga mountain (according to local beliefs, it was nicknamed “Bear Mountain”). The picturesque shores and mild climate attract many tourists to these pebble beaches. There are a lot of people, especially in July-August. Take your seats in the morning.
  

  And for sure, it’s worth going by boat to the foot of Bear Mountain - there are much fewer people there and it’s calmer (just discuss your return time in advance).

  Private sector it is scarce here - located in two areas: in the old city and in the microdistrict. Prices for a room start from 350 rubles. The main territory is occupied by hotels, boarding houses, hotels and sanatoriums. The price of housing in them is from 1,500 rubles. For entertainment, you can be content with beach attractions.

Adults can visit Chekhov’s dacha museum or try the vaunted Crimean wine “Red Stone White Muscat” (on an excursion to the cellars of the Massandra plant for 1,000 rubles). In general, people come here to relax because of the natural beauty.

• There are also other resorts on the South Coast: expensive Foros (where the elite often arrive), Simeiz, Livadia, Koreiz, Nikita.

The best holiday in Crimea – Eastern Crimea

In the east, holiday resorts are also considered the best. Where is the best place to relax in Crimea with children, and to have a sandy beach on the seashore - come to the East (Sudak, Feodosia, Kerch):

• Zander

  Here's where to go on vacation this summer, and it's to the seaside pearl - Sudak. Many tourists have discovered the best holiday in Crimea here. As many as 2 kilometers of sand mixed with pebbles of a heavenly sunny beach.

  Beach in swimming season It's crowded and it's hard to find a place to sunbathe. It’s worth either arriving earlier, or moving closer to Cape Meganom (a wild beach near Mount Meganom). The sea water warms up to +29°C.
  

  For an excursion to have fun, you can go to the ancient Genoese fortress, which is on Fortress Hill. Tourists climb this architectural monument in droves and enjoy the views of the bay and sea. And in the fortress itself there is something to do - museums, ancient buildings. For adults, the Sudak enterprise offers excursions from the Massandra winery to taste delicate varieties of wine.

  And for children there is simply a cool and largest water park (children's complex - from 900 rubles). In the city center there is Cypress Alley with many attractions for both adults and children. You can take a boat ride to the bays of the New World (another fresh resort). The beach with the clearest water is “Turtle”.

  Diving lovers also have something to do. At the beginning of August, the international knight festival “Genoese Helmet” is held here (in the Sudak fortress).

  Holidays in the private sector and housing prices start from 350 rubles. Hotels are more expensive hotels - from 1000. You can eat in an inexpensive canteen or in budget cafes at boarding houses and sanatoriums. It is better to purchase cheaper products on the market. If you are looking for the best place to relax in Crimea with children, Sudak with its quartz sandy beach and gentle entrance to the sea is it.

• Feodosia

  This almost European resort is located in the southeast of the peninsula on the Black Sea coast. If the name is translated from Greek, it means “given by God.” Really impressive picturesque place.

  All beaches on the coastal area are sandy with a gently sloping bottom (you can walk a hundred meters to normal depth). It is better to relax with children on clean beaches (although some of them will be paid): on the territory of the sanatorium of the Ministry of Defense, “Children’s”, “Lazurny”, “Ukraine”, “Bounty”, “Zhemchuzhny”. Feodosia welcomes its guests with various water activities: water slides, bananas, diving, fishing. If you wish, you can fly on a paraglider or parachute, or in a hot air balloon over the sea.
  

  The most popular places in the city are the Tower of Constantine, the Genoese fortress, and the Taigan lion park. Be sure to visit the “Armenian Church” with its grandeur and beauty. Go to the Kafa fortress. The artist Aivazovsky, or rather with his finances, was built beautiful fountain, named after the artist himself. The lyricism and romantic nature will appeal to various museums, churches and mosques.

  Private sector for every taste. As soon as you step on the “threshold” of the city, you will be surrounded by numerous private owners with offers and housing prices starting from 350 rubles. Hotels and inns are also inexpensive - from 800 per person. To eat on a budget, you need to buy groceries in chain stores. A little more expensive in restaurants and cafes: “Genoa”, “Khutorok”, “Robin Hood”.

• Kerch

  How can you visit and relax in “Russian Rome or Greece”, how can you enjoy the sea on the sun-warmed sand. By the way, not one, but two seas at once. Kerch is located in the Kerch Strait and its shores are washed by the Black and Azov Seas. This is the most eastern city peninsula. There are no beaches at all in the center - only one is small (30 meters in total).

  This is understandable, because this city is a port. But nevertheless, there are plenty of beaches for vacationers here, as well as housing for rent. All beaches are conditionally free with sandy or pebble-sandy shores. Shells - darkness. And here you can observe a miracle - in August the water becomes phosphorescent and the glow is like a fairy tale. The most popular beach is the Central City Beach (“SunDali”), quite clean and well-groomed, with shallow water.
  

  So, if you are looking for the best place to relax in Crimea with children this summer, we advise you to go to Kerch. Everyone will like the ancient ruins of Pontikapaeus (Kerch is only one year younger than Rome). And how many excavations there were: the crypt of Demeter, the Royal Mound, the Temple of John the Baptist (the oldest church in the world). Climb the stairs (432 steps) up Mount Mithridates to the Obelisk of Glory.

  Visit Cape Lantern to the Yenikalsky lighthouse. Take a trip to the Kerch fortress for a tour of this ancient structure (very little has been preserved) - perhaps among the numerous underground passages you will find one that leads across the entire Kerch Strait. And if you have time, stay on the golden beach behind the fortress.

  You can look at small volcanoes in the Valley of mud volcanoes - “Bulganakskie”. They throw healing mud containing boron, soda and iodine onto the surface. You see, you can rest and heal, or for prevention, strengthen your immune system. You can also go to the world’s famous and best mud deposits – Lake Chokrak – to get some treatment. Therapeutic mud with hydrogen sulfide springs will relieve you of almost any ailment.

  The Elken-Kaya rocks and the ancient ruins of the city of Cimmerick, in the protected area of ​​Opuk, will attract you with their natural beauty. Prices for housing and accommodation (products) are the same as in Feodosia: room rental from 300 rubles.

You can easily find housing at a price of 300 rubles per person in the private sector. And from 500 in hotels and hotels. The city has sufficient and developed infrastructure, so there are no problems with food and buying groceries.

• Sevastopol

  This city may not be called a resort, but it is worth telling about it. Most often tourists come here because of the many attractions. But the beach holiday has not been cancelled. The entire coastline here is dotted with sandy beaches.

  The most popular are: “Victory Park” and “Omega”. For children - a lot of entertainment: Zurbagan Water Park (from 700 rubles at your service 7 pools and 15 slides), Treasure Island Rope Park (from 100 rubles), Komsomolsky Amusement Park, Lukomorye Children's Park and many museums , where your child will be interested.

  For adults there is also a huge number of places worth visiting (about 2000 historical monuments): Chersonese Tauride Reserve, Panorama “Defense of Sevastopol in 1854-1855. Private sector about 400 rubles.

• Saki

  Holidays in Crimea with therapeutic and health-improving functions, victory over illness, healing mud (brine, which is lifted from the bottom of the salty Saki Lake), which really helps patients, a pleasant European climate, healthy air, resort paradise for wheelchair users - this is all Saki (a town of 25 thousand, 20 kilometers from Yevpatoria).
  

  But people come here not only to receive medical treatment, but also to simply relax in Crimea on the sandy beach with the whole family. As in the territory of Evpatoria, there is shallow and flat bottom, all beaches are with fine sand or pebble-sand. Therefore, these places attract tourists with children. Not so crowded, comfortable and safe.

  The Saki resort owes its fame to the lake - it is one of the iconic attractions. Also the Greco-Scythian settlement of Kara-Tobe, arboretum, Pump room (source) of mineral water. For children there is an amusement park and all the beach activities. You can go to a dolphinarium or water park in Evpatoria. Nearby is the Banana Republic water park and the Solnyshko entertainment complex with a beautiful clean beach. You can taste this delicious wine at a tasting at Seventh Heaven. The price of housing and accommodation is the same as in Evpatoria.

• Peaceful

  This is a former closed town that attracts vacationers with uncrowded beaches of the Black Sea and Lake Donuzlav. Velvety sand and a gently sloping bottom for families with children. Very close (2 km) is the village of Popovka, which is famous for hosting the Kazantip festival.

  With children you can visit the dolphinarium with fighting dolphins. Here’s what vacationers say from previous seasons: “...not far from Mirny, next to Popovka there is an amazing place for relaxation - the “Southern Spit”, artificially created. On the one hand, Lake Donulav, with its warm salty waters and healing properties of silt, similar to the healing mud of Moinaki (Greenpeace recognized this lake as the cleanest on the entire Black Sea coast), and on the other hand, the clear waters of the Black Sea.

  We vacationed at the Neptune cooperative. Not as crowded as in Popovka, where Kazantip is. Behind it we discovered another healing lake“Oyburskoye” - you lie on the water and don’t drown - just like in the Dead Sea! Blue clay raised from the bottom and black healing mud nearby.”

Center of Crimea

In the central part, if you look at the map, there is no sea, but these places will delight you with interesting sights. The resort cities of this side are Simferopol and Bakhchisarai.

The capital of Crimea and the “gateway to the peninsula” is Simferopol. Tourists flock here to see: the Kebir-Jami Mosque of 1508, Scythian Naples, the 20-meter Petrovskaya Balka Waterfall, many churches and mosques, caves with their mysterious grottoes. If you are on your way to a vacation spot, if you have time, and since you have already found yourself in this city, look at the main attractions of the city and its surroundings.

Bakhchisarai ( former capital Crimean Khanate) is a beautiful city with Tatar architecture. It is worth visiting the palace of Khan Khan-Saray, the “Sphinxes” of the Churuk-Su river.

When choosing a holiday destination with children on the Black Sea coast of the Crimean Peninsula, you should pay attention to the following characteristics:

• Remoteness of the sea
• Safe beach
• Not crowded
• Developed infrastructure
• Children's entertainment: water park, dolphinarium, park

The next most popular is the eastern part of the peninsula. And this is Feodosia, with its climate similar to Italian, warm sea, developed infrastructure, entertainment for children.

And as for the south, “there is no talk” - definitely the resort town of Alushta and its surroundings, “Big Yalta”. In Yalta itself, and its surroundings, prices are an order of magnitude higher than on other shores.

Where is the best place to relax in Crimea – reviews from vacationers 2017-2018

How many people - so many opinions. You can't please everyone. Here we have collected reviews from people who have already rested and experienced all the delights of the resort beach holiday(both on a ticket through a tour operator, and “savages”).

The majority of reviews are, of course, positive:

• Mom Olya. Look at Spit Belyaus, half an hour from Tarkhankut. We were there last year, it was great. Choose the hotels yourself.
• Anastasia: We vacationed in Peschanoye, near Yevpatoriya - we liked it. Everything is clean, the sea is excellent, relaxing with a child in peace and quiet is simply delightful. But those who want entertainment will not really like it there, and it is not convenient to go on excursions. But relaxing with your family on the beaches and drinking homemade wine in the evenings is just the thing!
• Evgeny. IN western Crimea there is a small, very cozy village of Chernomorskoye. There is the cleanest air on the entire peninsula! The most beautiful and cleanest sea! Not bad beaches. Cheap housing is offered at every turn. Just what you need to take a break from the bustle of the city. And also gain strength. We've been going there for three years now. I really like it. We find housing ourselves near the sea. The choice is huge! Everyone! I recommend!
• Andrey. We vacationed in Evpatoria in July 2017. We settled on Uritsky. I liked everything very much. The hosts were hospitable and friendly, they suggested where it was best to eat, where to buy something, where to go. It's not far from the beach, but there are a lot of people. We ate in the cafeteria and were pleased with the prices and selection. In the evenings we walked in Frunze Park. We went on a couple of excursions to the dolphinarium. And all this is somehow relaxed, calm. It turned out to be not just a trip to the sea, but a real vacation, when you have no problems, haste or stress. We decided to go to Evpatoria again next year, to those owners.
• Konstantin. We vacationed in Alushta in September 2018. We really liked everything. The city is just right in size. Not big and not small. The sea is clean, the beaches are well maintained. There are enough cafes, restaurants and entertainment. Another thing I really liked was that it’s about 30-40 minutes to Yalta and there’s no need to jostle around in Yalta itself. There are, as they say, no room for tourists there. And they calmly toured all the palaces. On your own without a tour. Only we didn’t have time to get to Sevastopol. This year we'll drive it. My wife, of course, really liked Crimea. The sea and nature are of course amazing there. You drive through the mountains, grapes grow. Air that you want to breathe twice as much. We really liked Alushta. And the prices are tolerable.
• Zinaida. In 2018, I vacationed with my family in Sudak. Our so-called vacation (((lasted 7 days. To me, these 7 days seemed like an eternity!!! Already on the 3rd day I really wanted to return home to Kharkov. For everyone who is planning a family vacation, especially with children, Sudak is not at all a place where you can relax and have fun. During our stay in Sudak, and it was the month of July, there were no people on the beach, not to mention a place to lie down or even sit down. green in color with a terrible smell of rotten algae. In general, a very noisy and dirty place, at least at this time of year. Our long-planned vacation ended with an infectious disease for the whole family! although I really love Crimea, especially the South Coast! I recommend such places as Gurzuf, Simeiz, Faros, etc. to everyone who wants to have a good family holiday, get a boost of vigor and energy, and for those who want parties and new temporary acquaintances, this is just what you need. go in the direction of Sudak!
• Victoria. We were in Koktebel, boarding house Primorye) The kids liked it, and so did my husband and I. We chose this boarding house because it is convenient for children - playgrounds, a swimming pool and much more. 3 meals a day, accommodation in any of the five buildings - at your request. Prices are also relative, approximately from 500 to 800 rubles per person per day. We were in building 1, there was a stunning view of the sea. There you can order separate meals for children, although you will have to pay a little extra.
• Oksana. We vacationed with a 2-year-old child in Beregovoe, not far from Feodosia. I really liked it! The beach is very clean, sandy, clear water. We stayed at the Dominica Hotel (swimming pool, children's playground, they cook separately for children, whatever you order).
• Victoria. When we were on vacation in Crimea for the first time, we also went to Beregovoe, we really liked the Priboi base there, a swimming pool with a waterfall, massage, a salt cave and a playroom and playground for the kids, whatever you want, also our first experience was with the agency “On 7 Hills” " Honestly, a very wonderful place, even the dolphinarium is very close))
• Alexander. It’s generally better not to vacation in Crimea. The successful combination of high prices and poor service makes the holiday a self-flagellation. And it’s even better not to drive domestic cars, because... The result is a Mercedes in installments. The only plus is that you don’t need a passport. For some, this is a weighty argument, but if you have a passport, then it’s better to look at any other country...

Tips for those who want to have a better holiday in Crimea in 2019

• Book your accommodation in advance. Nobody wants to run around looking for a place to sleep, especially with children. It’s easier to know for sure what awaits you in the future and that the space under the roof is not occupied. There are, of course, free rooms or cottages in less popular resorts.
• Excursions. We think that it is worth visiting the sights of Crimea on your own rather than ordering them. There is an opinion that local guides and tour guides “make money” and inflate prices.
• Products and nutrition. If you cook yourself, then it’s definitely worth purchasing food in chain stores, or, as a last resort, in the market. And so, in every resort town there are inexpensive canteens and cafes where you can dine cheaply and comfortably for 500 rubles for two.
• Mobile communications and Internet. Actually, you came to rest, so you should use gadgets for reasonable purposes, if necessary. And if you can’t bear it, buy a local SIM card and choose housing with Wi-Fi.
• Money. Although there are many banks on the peninsula. However, we believe that it is better to take cash with you in exchange.
• Children. If you are vacationing with children, then do not forget about the nature of the shore on the beach (sandy, pebble, rocky) and the distance from the sea. The best solution for holidays with children in Crimea is pebble and sandy beaches South Bank and Western.
• Road. A bridge will be built across the Kerch Strait soon - that will be a joy. It will be much faster and easier to get to your favorite resorts. In the meantime, the road will burden you with time and patience, especially with children (ferry, if by bus or car, transfers to railway transport). A little expensive, but faster and more comfortable by plane. You can rent a car right on the spot - without an “iron friend” you will be able to visit few places if your vacation is not for 30-40 days. Let’s not forget about the “Single Ticket”.

In conclusion, we would like to congratulate you on your decision to relax on the shores of the Black Sea in Crimea and wish you a pleasant holiday and time in one of the warm, clean and welcoming corners of the planet.

We recently went to Crimea. Where is the best place to go on vacation in Crimea?
I’ll write in detail)) We left on April 30th. We drove through Rostov (overnight at a hotel there), and reached Golubitskaya. Overnight there guest house PETRA (we really liked it). We drove along the coast - Temryuk, Kuchugury... We bought it on the website online tickets to the ferry. On May 3 we moved to Crimea. From the ferry we drove past Kerch, stopped in Feodosia, rode around and then drove on. In Koktebel - we walked there. Then we went to Sudak and spent the night in a hotel there. In the morning we went to New World. We walked there, went on a boat ride with an excursion for two (I can even give you a phone number), went to the Novy Svet champagne wine factory with a tour, had lunch on the embankment - there is an amazing restaurant called Ekaterina (lunch is very tasty, huge portions, super service and desserts We also received it as a compliment from the chef, supposedly for the long wait for the kebab, although the wait didn’t seem long to us). Then we stopped in Alushta, drove around the city and went to Yalta. We spent the night in Gaspra in a guest house, where from the balcony there was a wonderful view of the Swallow's Nest. In the morning we went on our own to the Swallow's Nest, stopped in Livadia, walked around the territory of the Livadia Palace, took some photos and went for a walk in Yalta. After a walk along the embankment we went to the dumpling shop “Vkusno”, it’s really very tasty there)) After Yalta we went to Sevastopol. We drove by Foros, Gurzuf, Alupka, Balaklava without stopping. We drove around Sevastopol in search of accommodation for the night. But they never found it)) We drove on, through Inkerman, past Bakhchisarai, and reached Simferopol. There we drove around the city at night. We spent the night and in the morning moved towards the ferry. Driving past Feodosia (on the way back) we decided to sunbathe and swim on the equipped beach (finally! Because the water in the sea was cold for swimming before). Then the ferry on May 6 in the evening (we bought a ticket online) and again our guest house in Golubitskaya, where they were waiting for us like family)) By this moment the weather began to deteriorate and we had to return home. What a wonderful trip)) Dreams come true! And yes...further Yalta is a scoop!)))

If you have never vacationed in Crimea in winter, then try it. You will want to repeat this again and again. This is beneficial economically and organizationally. The significant difference between summer and winter housing prices should interest you. A small number of vacationers create a very comfortable environment. Of course, you need to relax in the city in winter.
My last winter trip was to the city of Feodosia. My family and I wanted to see the famous Aivazovsky gallery, as well as go to the city of Sudak to view the Genoese fortress and to the New World for an excursion to the champagne wine factory. You could also visit the Koktebel Dolphinarium. I booked a transfer and hotel on the Black Sea in Feodosia from the company broomy-ru. Overall, we were very pleased with the trip and this good service.

Crimean coast - where is the best place to go on vacation this summer 2018? I read reviews and advice and realized that it is better to go to Crimea on vacation with children in August. And the water is warmer, and the people here are not more impudent, and there are fewer tourists. Or am I wrong?

Now I know exactly where to go on vacation in the summer of 2018 - to Crimea. I'll ride from the very south along the coast to the north. I will try to visit each resort to evaluate which is better. I think 20 days is enough for this summer trip.

I like the Crimean Peninsula. It’s somehow more pleasant to relax at sea here in the summer. It's not the same in the fall. Of course there is fruit, there are fewer people and all that, but it’s better in the summer. We have already visited almost the entire southern coast in our car. By the way, the road is tiring and requires nerves and strength. But then - heavenly days with a charge until next summer. In the mountains, on the beach, in museums, in parks.
I think the best places in Crimea are Yalta and Alushta! No winds - a place among the mountains, entertainment for every taste, where to go - many places, reasonable prices. Especially if you have time to find and move into the private sector. I recommend!

Where to go on vacation to Crimea with a child in the summer of 2018? We constantly went on vacation to the south, every summer, to the Black Sea, Krasnodar region. Now we want to find out what it’s like there in Crimea - where is the best place to relax as a family?

Where is the best place to relax in Crimea in the fall? Who knows where to go on vacation in Crimea in the fall? In September and October?

Good luck to everyone! What is better in Crimea - relaxing on the beaches of Alupka or on the beaches of Evpatoria or Feodosia. Everywhere there are different reviews. We will go on vacation in the summer of 2018 with the whole family and children. Is anyone going to leave a review?

Holidays in Crimea with children are the most unforgettable vacation. It was my first time on vacation in Alushta. Not only can children have fun here, but adults also have plenty of entertainment. Sandy beaches and clear sea, water park and zoo, cable car ride. True, I had a vacation at the end of June - beginning of July. Locals advised me that the best time to vacation in Crimea is August-September, when there are fewer people (vacationers) and prices are more affordable. They told where it is better to relax in Crimea: Simiez, Feodosia, Miskhor and others. Next year I also plan to have a family holiday in Crimea.

And I changed Crimea to Thailand. You say where better to go on vacation in Russia, but I say it’s better to go on vacation abroad and where heaps of tourists have not yet arrived, where it is more or less calm.

Thailand – beautiful country, attracting people with its picturesque fauna and flora. In the western part is the island of Phuket, where the bulk of tourists fly. The main advantage of this resort is the Andaman Sea, with clear, warm, rich turquoise water.
The most visited beaches are Patong and Kamala. Kamala Beach is better suited for children's holidays, since it is less loud and there are no hotels or roads near it. Patong, on the contrary, is not so quiet, there are shops, disco bars and clubs along the coast, but getting here is easy and simple. I would like to note that on the coast there are no annoying sellers, garbage dumps, pebbles and stones, which gives the greatest pleasure.
There are not many attractions on the island of Phuket, just a few museums and temple complexes. As an entertainment, scuba diving can be noted, allowing you to see the wealth sea ​​world. The island is also famous sightseeing tours: Khao Lak and Khao Sok reserves, safari, riding elephants, all this will not leave any vacationer sad. Best time for recreation - from October to April, at this time there is almost no rain and the temperature is more favorable.

Pattaya - noisy parties

The resort of Pattaya is not inferior to Phuket in popularity, but is fundamentally different from it. The water on the city beaches in Pattaya is very dark with muddy greenish water, but nearby there are several small islands where the water is clean and clear. You can get to the island by sea ferry; the journey takes about an hour one way. But despite all the beaches in Pattaya being crowded with people, it will be difficult to find a free place; almost no one swims in the sea itself, all tourists just sunbathe.
Unlike Phuket, Pattaya is packed with attractions. The most well-known and widespread is the temple Big Buddha and the Temple of Truth. In addition to Buddhist historical masterpieces, it is worth paying attention to the crocodile and elephant farms. But the most important thing that Pattaya is famous for is its noisy parties. The amazing Volkin Street is a modern calling card of the resort. In every house there are clubs, restaurants, performances open air, transvestite shows, etc.
Shopping lovers will like it better here than in Phuket, because there are a lot of hypermarkets here. As for food, in particular fruits, in Pattaya the prices are noticeably cheaper, and the assortment does not differ at all. Link

The best holiday in Crimea is in August-September. In September it is cooler and prices are more affordable.

The best holiday in Crimea in September is in the warmest place of the peninsula - the village of Miskhor, which is located between Koreiz and Gaspra. Here you will find beach holidays and entertainment. The most popular beach is Rusalka. And if you’re already bored of lying in the sun, you can climb Mount Ai-Petri by cable car. On the plateau of the same name there are the Yalta and Trekhglazka caves - excursion.

Where is the best place to relax in Crimea? We, as a family and children, went on vacation to Evpatoria this year 2017. We stayed there for 3 days, then rented a car and drove along the coast to Yalta. There we returned the car and flew back. It was cool, both the kids and the adults were delighted. Our children are 9 and 12 years old, so they are quite adults.
Next year, 2018, we will definitely go to the sea, and again we will rent a car to take a ride and stay longer in each resort. You just can't imagine how beautiful it is here. We advise everyone to come on vacation to Crimea at least once, or better yet two or three times. It doesn’t matter where: because every place here is the Best

Link

In fact, near Evpatoria, near Mirny, which is on west coast Crimea is really okay. It's called the Southern Spit. The beach is sandy and finely pebbled with sand. On one side the Black Sea on the other salt lake. Last year we traveled by car with the whole family: my wife, me and two daughters (6 years old and 8 years old). We spent the bulk of our vacation in Crimea here. And so along the road we crossed the entire Crimea. During our visit we visited Bakhchisarai, Sevastopol, Simferopol, Tarkhankut.
The roads seem to be normal. From Moscow we reached Rostov in the evening, spent the night and then boarded the ferry in the morning. By lunchtime we were already in Sevastopol. I don’t recommend traveling without an overnight stay - you’ll get tired and won’t find accommodation for the night.
In general, everyone was happy about this trip, especially the children. The holiday in Crimea was a success. This year in August we will go there again, only to ride along the east and south coasts.

By climatic conditions Crimea is suitable for all holidaymakers. In this regard, those who have not yet been to Crimea, but are planning a trip, have a logical question: where is the best place to relax in Crimea in the summer of 2020? Many tourists consider holidays on the peninsula expensive and compare costs with foreign resorts, but still, if you take into account the cost of flights and paperwork, the cost of a holiday on the domestic peninsula is significantly lower. Let's look at how to make good use of your time on the peninsula this summer.

Where can you relax in Crimea in 2020

In addition to hotels and boarding houses, rational travelers prefer to stay in a campsite or rent accommodation from local residents in the private sector, and this practice, by the way, is fully justified.

Note: Housing in the private sector is also rented by Crimeans themselves, who come not to the seashore for holidays or weekends.

As for the beaches themselves, the length of sand and pebble beaches on the peninsula is 343 km. Concentrated in different parts of Crimea large number ancient monuments and excursion areas. Therefore, vacationers often manage to visit all four parts of the republic in a week: Southern, Eastern, West Bank Crimea and even its central part with the capital Simferopol and the former residence of the Crimean khans - Bakhchisarai.

Advantages of holidays on the southern coast of Crimea: tips for tourists

This part of the peninsula is the most popular among vacationers, as a large number of sanatoriums and children's health camps are concentrated here. Also, this side attracts with the warmest climate. Often residents of megacities go to winter Yalta for new year holidays. The air temperature on the South Coast does not drop below zero, so at this time you can visit attractions and enjoy walks along the sparsely populated coast.

Yalta

In the summer, everyone, both partygoers and family groups, prefer to relax on the southern coast of Crimea. The most popular resort cities are Yalta, Alushta, Alupka, Simeiz. In addition to sanatoriums, mandatory places to visit are the Nikitsky Botanical Garden, a crocodile farm, aquariums, etc. There are a large number of open-air discos and nightclubs for young people.

In addition to watching the competitions of participants from all CIS countries, spectators have the opportunity to try on armor and purchase unusual souvenirs in the form of handicrafts or pottery. The most interesting events take place at the end of July.

Balaclava

Balaclava is also preferred by divers. This small cozy town is located near Sevastopol.

This town has everything you need for a comfortable family holiday: cozy boarding houses, a large number of stone, pebble and sand beaches. Here you can go fishing and wander through ancient ruins.

There are a large number of ethnic restaurants on the embankment where you can taste fresh Crimean fish.

What cities are worth seeing on the Western Bank of Crimea

When traveling along the western side in order to have a good break from everyday life and work, you should definitely visit historical city Chersonesos. Here is the Vladimir Cathedral and the ruins of an ancient settlement. Now it is a large reserve on the territory of which archaeologists work.

Tourists choose the West Coast to restore their health. Due to the absence of forests, the air is maximally saturated with salts and ions. There are a large number of medical sanatoriums specializing in procedures based on mineral waters and dirt.

Evpatoria

In Soviet times, the resort town of Evpatoria was famous for its children's health camps. Their construction was facilitated by sandy beaches and shallow waters. Nowadays, vacationers are increasingly choosing this city for themselves, since over the entire period of its development a very good infrastructure has been formed here. Holidays in Evpatoria are much cheaper than in resorts in the South Coast. Due to the shallow water, the water warms up much faster, so the swimming season in Evpatoria is much longer.

The most popular attractions in this city are the Turkish baths, built 5 centuries ago. Now this place is visited only for viewing, since these ancient structures are in a dilapidated state.

During a trip to Yevpatoria, it is recommended to visit the Armenian Church built in the 19th century. This city is also famous for its love of theater. In the summer, the actors of the theater of living statues stage unforgettable performances, which have recently become the hallmark of the health resort city.

Saki

The city of Saki in Soviet times was popular among wheelchair users. Now in this area there are a large number of sanatoriums specializing in different directions. Saki, in addition to the sea, is famous for its salt lakes, in which healing mud used for any disease. The beaches are mostly sandy, so this city is chosen by families with children and anyone who has not yet learned to swim.

What does Northern Crimea offer to tourists?

People most often come to northern and central Crimea for the excursion program. There is undoubtedly picturesque nature here and cultural heritage, but no famous resorts, so the number of tourists here is much less. But still, avoiding stereotypes, the northern coast of Crimea has its own vacation spots, where a stay will cost much less.

There are no grand festivals or discos in this area, but in small towns Even in the hottest months, the temperature remains comfortable. In these parts you can enjoy solitude, breathe incredibly clean air and buy safe food from local farmers.

Armyansk

A small town washed on one side by a bay Sea of ​​Azov Lake Sivash, on the other - the Black Sea. Despite the fact that this city can be considered a small village, it has historical attractions - the Perekop fortifications built in the Middle Ages. Holidays in Armyansk are inexpensive for tourists.

Port

A small village with the cleanest shell beach on the peninsula. Accommodation can be rented in small boarding houses, mini-hotels and local residents. This area is suitable for a relaxing holiday. All the necessary entertainment outlets and souvenir shops are present here. The disadvantages include the short duration of the swimming season from June to August. At the end of summer they swim to the shore.

Aurora

Ideal place for budget holiday families with children. The gently sloping sandy beach with a shallow bottom and healing waters saturated with iodine is attractive. Local healing clay effectively copes with most diseases. It is purchased by various mud baths for procedures, and village residents use it for free. A significant drawback in this area is the complete lack of tourist infrastructure. On the beaches you must take umbrellas and a complete set for relaxation. There is nothing in the village except several recreation centers, so people often travel to nearby cities.

Eastern Crimea: rich history

Eastern Crimea can surprise not only with its sights. Here are the most beautiful white sandy beaches, quaint cliffs, quiet picturesque bays and large, amazingly beautiful mountains.

Port city of Feodosia

The most acceptable holiday option for a budget tourist and an active excursion program. Housing in Feodosia is much cheaper than at resorts on the South Coast. Besides the sea, there is a lot to see in this city. It is a large industrial and administrative center. Despite the presence of a port, the water in the sea is clean, except for the central beach, which is located near the railway.

Vacationers are also attracted by a large number of wild beaches; for lovers, there is also a nudist one. The coast in Feodosia is not rocky, but sandy. The influx of people is significantly less than on the southern side of the peninsula. Most tourists come to see the aeronautics festival in May.

In Feodosia there are more than a dozen sanatoriums specializing in the treatment of the respiratory, circulatory and excretory systems. You can also stay in mini-hotels, boarding houses or rent housing from local residents.

Koktebel

Koktebel is a city of youth and creative individuals. In the summer, various music festivals are often held in this city, so vacationers will not be bored. The biggest attractions of Koktebel are the Karadag Nature Reserve, which can only be visited by booking an excursion. Also in this area is the famous Golden Gate rock. Vacationers pass through a mountain arch on a small boat and make their deepest wishes, which are sure to come true. The bottom of the sea near the rock is littered with coins.

The beaches in Koktebel are small-pebble and have a sandy bottom. This town used to be considered cultural capital Crimea, since the poet Maximilian Voloshin lived there. His house still hosts creative evenings and even the International Literary Festival.

City of creative people: Koktebel is a city of contrasts, where people come who, even on vacation, engage in their own self-education. Here you can study literature and biology in the reserve, where a large number of ancient exhibits are stored.

In addition to cultural recreation in Koktebel, you can get rid of your complexes and become bolder. This is where the nudist beach is located. You can also try paragliding and enjoy beautiful views from high up.

New World

The most picturesque place on the entire peninsula. This village is famous for its landscape and state reserve. The area is covered with mountains, so there are no strong winds, the climate is uniform at any time of the year. Despite the proximity to Sudak due to rocky mountains, which surround the New World, the water in the sea warms up much faster, so the swimming season here is longer. It is necessary to visit this village to get acquainted with the rare vegetation. Here you can admire the relict Sudak and curved Crimean pine, juniper.

Note for vacationers: Experienced tourists They recommend settling in Sudak and coming to the New World to admire nature. The sand and pebble beaches in the village are not very well maintained and are not often cleaned, the bottom is too rocky, but you can choose good place for relaxation. There are no canopies on the beaches, so it is better to take an umbrella with you or wait out the midday heat in one of the cozy restaurants or on the territory of the reserve.

There is another opinion It is advisable to settle in a village, since the healing air saturated with juniper has a beneficial effect on the body. For vacationers, there are several options for choosing housing:

• Live in a hotel. At the same time, all the necessary conditions for a shower, air conditioning, a nearby dining room and vital WiFi are provided. The disadvantage of this choice is the long distance to get to the sea;
• Personal house in the forest. The healthiest choice for the body. Living in such conditions is cozy and romantic. The sea is much closer. Disadvantages include the lack of a refrigerator, TV, personal shower and air conditioning. You can do without the latter, since the pine forest always maintains a comfortable coolness for the body.
• You can rent accommodation from local residents. This accommodation option in the private sector is the cheapest.

It’s a pleasure to be on the territory of the reserve, but in addition it is recommended to visit the Golitsyn Trail, Chaliapin’s Grotto and Cape Kapchik. From above you can admire the famous Tsarskoye Beach. It is officially closed because there is a slight risk of collapse. The bravest tourists violate this ban.

Kerch

A unique city that is washed by two seas, the Black and Azov. This is the most ancient settlement on the peninsula, so history buffs prefer to spend their holidays here. At the same time, there are not too many vacationers in Kerch due to geographical features. There are no beaches or sea in the city itself. For active recreation you need to go out of town. This makes it much more difficult to not have your own car.

Almost all boarding houses and holiday homes are located in remote villages, so to visit attractions you should spend money on carriers. Young tourists are upset by the lack of a water park and extreme species sports There are several summer discos on the coast. At the same time, you will be pleased with the low cost of rental housing and a lot of impressions from visiting the sights.

While staying on the peninsula, it is recommended to visit the Ruins of Ancient Panticapaeum, the Yeni-Kale Fortress, the Church of John the Baptist, the Crypt of Demeter, and the Museum of Oceanography. Even if vacationers are not interested in history, the sights of Kerch will not leave anyone indifferent. It is unlikely that you will be able to visit all historical places in one vacation, so there will still be a reason to visit this beautiful city again.

Around the city there are a large number of sandy beaches on the shores of the Black and Azov Seas. Popular among vacationers:

1. Youth,
2. Kyiv,
3. turtle,
4. Water Station,
5. Arshintsevo,
6. SunDali.

For lovers of secluded relaxation Kerch Peninsula there are a large number of wild beaches. The depth of the sea is shallow, which allows the water to warm up quickly. You can start the swimming season near Kerch from mid-May.

Video walk around Kerch:

Best accommodation options

Every year the peninsula is actively developed and new hotels and holiday homes appear. The most high prices on the southern coast in Yalta and Alushta. In order to save money, most tourists go to the Western Coast of Crimea. At the same time, you should take into account what you prefer to get from your leisure time.

Most popular among vacationers who visited the peninsula for the first time, Nikitsky Botanical Garden and the Swallow's Nest monument. To do this, you should study the transport interchange and just spend a couple of days visiting these attractions.

The advantage of the southern coast of Crimea is intercity trolleybus, which connects Simferopol, Yalta and Alushta. For a nominal cost you can travel a distance of 96 km. This saves a lot of money. You can get to other cities by minibus, therefore, it does not matter significantly in which locality to settle.

Camping

In order not to spend money on rental housing, vacationers prefer to stay in tent cities. This type of temporary housing is most suitable for companies with a car, since they have to take tents, dishes, and electric stoves with them. Until recently, camping in tents had to be carefully thought out. Nowadays, tourist centers have everything necessary for guests who travel around Crimea on bicycles or motorbikes. In modern tent camps there are: gas and electric stoves, running water, lighting, a place for washing and drying clothes, benches, gazebos.

Most popular camping spots:

1. Tourist shelter Vympel, Alushta;
2. Krymtrantour village Foros;
3. Blue Bay of Simeiz;
4. Belaya Rus Alupka;
5. Kapsel city Sudak;
6. Dolphin, Evpatoria;
7. Autocamping in Olenevka, Cape Tarkhankut;
8. Heraclea Bay Laspi near Sevastopol;
9. Meridian village Rybachye near Alushta.

Boarding houses and private sector

Most residents living near the sea rent out their own housing. The cost of renting a bed directly depends on the season, location and living conditions. You can find inexpensive housing using the Internet or locally.

It is safer to stay in boarding houses, since the risk of falling for scammers is much less. You can find out more about the living conditions by reading reviews on forums and travel websites. This is problematic with private housing owners. Therefore, it is better to stay with trusted and recommended hosts.

If you compare prices, it is much cheaper than the private sector or boarding houses. Having studied the reviews of vacationers, we can conclude: The most favorable prices in Crimea in May, June, September and October. July and August are characterized by inflated prices for rental housing, as well as a large flow of people on beaches, parks, public transport and historical monuments.

Answer

Koktebel, Crimea, beach

Where to relax in Crimea in the summer of 2017? The question is no longer an idle one, since such an important matter as a vacation is better to plan well in advance and certainly not in a hurry! Of course, we realize that many will prefer to vacation in Turkey instead of Crimea, Anapa and Sochi in 2017 - this review is dedicated to those who have either not yet been to the peninsula, or have been, but not by car.

Crimea, somewhere near Sudak

• - report
• - advice
• peninsula
• Hotels and boarding houses in Crimea in 2017

Let's try to solve the problem by moving progressively in the direction of the car from the Kerch crossing along the coast of the peninsula. Those arriving in Crimea by plane can also benefit from advice based on real experience.

• So, this is the first thing you come across on the road from Kerch. The beaches are excellent, sandy and wide, guest houses and hotels near coastline. But, pfft, we go further - the Kerch-Simferopol highway in Beregovoe, and it is in this village near Feodosia that the famous “Golden Beach” is located, 3 kilometers of sand along the Black Sea coast, it goes right along the coast and it is never empty

Koktebel steppe

Some of the cars turn further towards Simferopol, some go further - for example, to, a beautiful resort town right at the foot of the Karadag mountain reserve. It’s quite possible to relax here, especially if you’re traveling with children. The local climate is very good - the steppes are literally close to the sea, the humidity is optimal, and the air is never stagnant.

• The beaches here are excellent and are never empty during the season - so much so that there is only a place left close to each other, except to stick in a towel. There are also many tourists who prefer wild holidays. Including those who prefer to dress “wildly” on the beach, that is, naturists. In the village of Kurortnoye, on the other side of Karadag, there is the most famous nudist beach in Crimea - Fox Bay

Next you can consider a holiday in Alushta, very popular during the season resort town halfway between Simferopol (airport) and Yalta. The place is beautiful and good, but in the summer it is too crowded - boarding houses and sanatoriums are packed to capacity, as well as guest houses and even expensive hotels.

If after Feodosia you go straight to the west, towards Simferopol, then two alternatives to a good holiday in Crimea will loom before you.

• The first one is . If he himself, then you will be literally at the epicenter of the Crimean civilization, but you will experience some shortage good beaches. If you choose villages to the north on the vast sandy beaches: Kacha, Peschanoye, Beregovoe, Nikolaevka, then you will have to come to terms with a measured resort life without any hint of entertainment. People vacation there almost exclusively in their own cars, because getting there any other way is very inconvenient
• The second one is Saki. People come to Saki who not only want to relax in Crimea, but also to receive treatment - mud from the local lake is considered simply miraculous, primarily for restoring the musculoskeletal system

Mostly people with deep family backgrounds go to Evpatoria. The number of boarding houses and sanatoriums in this city is probably the maximum in Crimea!

Beach near Evpatoria

It is worth considering from the point of view of recreation the villages to the north of this resort town: Zaozernoye, Shtormovoe, Mirny. They all stand on beautiful (albeit not wide) sandy beaches; they have been “tested” since Soviet times by people who understand a lot about seaside holidays, and during the season they can be somewhat overpopulated. Prices for accommodation here are lower than in Yevpatoria, there is almost no entertainment, but the sea and swimming here are simply magnificent.

Rest time is always a long-awaited time. But the main question remains to be resolved: where to hold it? We will tell you about where it is better to go to Crimea in 2017. Believe me, your vacation will be unforgettable, no matter where you end up.

How to choose a place

Before deciding which place in Crimea you will choose, it is worth considering several factors.

1. Determine for yourself how active your vacation should be.
2. Take into account the peculiarities of the place if you plan to travel with your child.
3. Decide what month you plan to travel.

The most important thing is to remember that no matter what you expect from your vacation, it should leave the most pleasant impressions in your memory!

General features of the peninsula

Crimea has a unique geographical location. It allows anyone to find a vacation to their liking. The fact is that the peninsula is located in several climatic zones. Thus, each part of the coast has its own special attractions and differences.

Where to go on vacation in Crimea for the sake of the sea?

In different parts of the peninsula, the sea has its own characteristics. If you are planning a vacation with children, you should pay attention to a resort such as Kerch or Saki. Here the entrance to the sea is flatter, which guarantees the safety of children who cannot swim. The beaches in these cities are mostly sandy and very wide.

Feodosia, New World and Ordzhonikidze are surrounded by mountains. The entrance to the sea is not too deep. The beaches are covered with small pebbles. The nature here resembles that which usually grows in steppe zones. But the air is truly Crimean! These places are especially convenient for those who travel by car or even prefer camping. It is inexpensive, and there is a complete opportunity to completely immerse yourself in the hospitable hands of nature, to breathe Crimea to the fullest. And all this will be relevant in September 2017!

Yalta, a city located in the very south of the peninsula, is rightly called the real pearl of Crimea. The city has its own special climate. It's surprising that even weather conditions can differ significantly from the surrounding cities. It is wonderful at any time of the year. But if you decide to go to Yalta in September, this vacation will remain in your heart for a long time.

Determining the appropriate season

How to determine the appropriate season in 2017 for a good rest? The southern coast in Crimea is relevant not only in the hot summer months. It impresses with its picturesqueness and magic at any time of the year. Whether you find yourself among the awe-inspiring evergreen trees or tropical palms, this region will always greet you with new sensations. However, you will get a special impression if you visit this part of Crimea in September - October.

In the first autumn months of 2017, however, as always, a velvet season reigns on the southern coast of Crimea. This is an amazing time of year that is completely different from others. You will not be exhausted from the daytime heat, because you will always be cooled by a fresh breeze. The evenings will be especially warm. The air is filled with the amazing smells of cedar, juniper and essential oils. The sea is still warm and gentle, and the mountains reflect all the transparency of the crystal clear air.

There is an opinion that the southern coast of Crimea is a place only for people with above average income. This is a common misconception. Even there you can relax inexpensively in 2017, but only if you plan your vacation carefully and in advance.

However, Crimea is good not only in September. If you do not plan to actively attend various excursions (of which there are many), you can go on vacation in the summer. Below we will discuss in more detail the most popular resorts and we’ll see how to relax inexpensively, where to go with your child to make your vacation in Crimea memorable, and how not to get lost among the hundreds of excursions offered.

Let's take a closer look at visiting these places:

Where is the best place to come? Judge for yourself.

Sights of Alushta

By Big Alushta we usually mean not only this one city, but an entire village council. The city is the first major tourist point along the route from Simferopol along the highway. By the way, both Alushta and Yalta can be reached inexpensively by trolleybus (unless, of course, you travel by car). Interestingly, this trolleybus route is considered the longest in all of Europe.

If you go to Crimea with a child in 2017, Alushta is worth a visit. This is one of the central resorts of the Southern Coast in Crimea. The sea here is warm and the climate is mild. However, in addition to these main attractions, Alushta is rich in other features.

Where is the best place to go?

1. Dolphinarium. Here you can not only watch a performance, but also swim with dolphins.
2. Underwater aquarium where you can get acquainted with all the diversity underwater world.
3. Be sure to visit the “Crimea in Miniature” museum. The main attractions are collected there and copied exactly, only in a reduced form.

In addition to the attractions in the city itself, there are interesting places in the surrounding area. If you are by car, you can go to the Jur-Jur waterfall with the Valley of Ghosts, or visit the ruins of the old Aluston fortress. For lovers of the underwater world, it makes sense to swim to the monument to Jacques Cousteau.

If your goal when visiting Alushta is to visit waterfalls, you should not go in the hot summer. Most of the water dries up during the dry season, and you will see nothing but a thin stream. For such a holiday, June (even the first half is better) and the spring months are better suited. You can try to see the waterfall in September after the rains.

Sights of Yalta

One of the visitors to this amazing place once said: “Yalta is a city you want to return to.” And this is true. By visiting this unique place one day, you will not be able to help but come to it again. It doesn’t matter whether you travel by car or use regular transport.

Yalta is the pearl of Crimea, which annually attracts its guests at any time of the year. It is beautiful both under the cover of snow and buried in greenery and flowers. This place has an amazing atmosphere. It will appeal not only if you are going on vacation with a child. If you are interested youth recreation, then this city is also for you. There is plenty of entertainment and interesting places that will attract the attention of any average person.

I would like to make a reservation right away: if your vacation means sunbathing on the beach from morning to evening, Yalta is not for you. This is a place where the beach and active recreation, visiting excursions. However, spending time without visiting interesting places is simply a crime.

Where to go in Yalta? In short, the city itself is already a tourist attraction. You just have to go out to the embankment and appreciate everything yourself. Here you will be greeted not only by a stunning mountain-sea landscape and the gentle sound of the surf. This is the most important vacation spot in the city. street musicians, sailing yachts, palm alleys create a unique atmosphere. This is a city in which there are no ugly places. And all this will certainly happen in September 2017!

The embankment appears before guests in a special way in the evening. It is never the same. You can always see something new and interesting here. Evening lights that light up at dusk add special romance. There is so much light in Yalta that there is a constant presence of holiday and celebration in the air. You don’t need to drive a car, just walk along the streets and breathe in this air, filled with sun and resin from perennial cedar trees!

If you decide to spend your holiday in Yalta in 2017, you should draw up a program in advance. In order not to miss anything significant and important, make a list of places where you want to go. If you are planning a vacation with a child, many places will not leave him indifferent. Crimea is especially beautiful in September.

You should definitely include the following places in your tourist program:

• Yalta cable car;
• Livadia Palace;
• Massandra Palace;
• Zoo "Fairy Tale".

These are just a few amazing places, for which it is worth visiting Crimea and spending your holidays there. Let's take a closer look at their features.

Yalta cable car

This road passes over the city itself. Even if you are traveling with a child, it makes sense to ride it. After disembarking at the top point, you will have the opportunity to walk along a small observation deck and enjoy the view from above.

Livadia Palace

A building of ancient architecture that has retained its former grandeur and condition. This palace gained its fame not only due to the historical value of the times when the imperial family lived in it. Many people associate this building with the Yalta Conference, which took place in 1945 and was significant in the history of the modern world.

By visiting this place, you will not only enjoy the magnificent architecture. The huge park that surrounds the palace perfectly frames the building and gives coolness even on the hottest day.

If you decide to go there by car, you'd better take the South Coast Highway, which connects some coastal towns in Crimea. You need to move in the direction of Sevastopol. Between settlements only about 3 km.

Massandra Palace

If you want to explore the whole of Crimea, it’s worth visiting here. The park is small, but ancient architecture really impressive. If you don’t go by car, you’ll have to walk a long time from the trolleybus, about half an hour. City routes that go to the Nikitsky Botanical Garden (which, by the way, also glorified Crimea with its annual parade of chrysanthemums) are suitable. Travel will be inexpensive, and you will get a lot of impressions.

Zoo "Fairy Tale"

If you want to have a good time with your kids, you should definitely visit this place. This is not only the best zoo in Crimea. This is a place where animals feel good.

People often think that zoos are not the most pleasant places to be. But when it comes to such establishments in Crimea, the opposite is true. In 2017, the ticket price is 500 rubles. It may seem like a lot. However, for the joy you'll experience there, it doesn't come cheap! You can get there by car or by minibus 24 from Yalta from the Spartak stop.

If you decide to visit Crimea in September 2017, be sure to do it. For the happiness you will get there, it will be very inexpensive.
