Rest in Crimea - where is it better to rest

Such resorts as Koktebel, Feodosia, Alushta, Sudak, Alupka, Yalta, Novy Svet, Golden Beach, Gurzuf, Foros open their doors for you.

Yalta - the center of beach tourism - not quite cheap resort, closer to European prices.

And that's why it is on these beaches that it is fun and comfortable, read on. First, about the place where you plan to go to rest.

Crimea is a peninsula

First of all, we want to acquaint you with 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 to the north to the east its shores are washed Sea of ​​Azov... Both seas in summer warm up to + 25 ... + 28 ° C. In 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.

Historically, tourists divide the territory of Crimea into four zones: south, west, east and center. According to the words and reviews of holidaymakers from last year, there are more than enough places for families and children.

There is a corner for every guest here to relax.

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

Where is the best place to relax in Crimea - South

Southern Crimea is represented by such resort towns and villages:

• Alushta

  It is believed that there is a city of Alushta and " Big Alushta"(The administrative territory of the city), where the resort villages are located: Privetnoye, Utyos, Partenit, Solnechnogorskoye, Rybachye, Malorechenskoye.

  The picturesque mountainous harbor protects the coast from waves and winds. Most of the beaches are paid. But unlike free ones, they are much cleaner and you don't have to take up space so early. The coast is dominated by pebble, closer to the center you can find a beach with a sandy-pebble coast. For children there is entertainment on the beaches themselves: trampolines, mini-attractions.
  

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

  Prices for rental housing: private sector from 300 rubles per person, mini hotels from 1000, hotels from 2000. Prices for products are reasonable. On the coast there is an excellent PUD chain store with affordable prices.




National resort of European destination - the pearl of the South Coast (South Coast of Crimea). Do not confuse the city itself and the adjoining territory of the administrative part " Big Yalta". The "Big Yalta" includes such resorts as Alupka, Gurzuf, Foros, Livadia, Gaspra, Simeiz and others.

The climate of these places is compared to Italian - the sun is almost all year round. There is a lot of vegetation on the coast. The bay itself is protected from above by a semicircle of mountains. It's a bit tough with beaches. First, they are deep-water and, more often than not, of artificial origin, with a pebbly coast. Secondly, all the best beaches distributed between hotels and sanatoriums.


If you come to rest so to speak "savages" and rent a house for rent in the private sector, then you can go to the beach to sunbathe and swim in the sea only for money. Paid beaches are cleaner than everyone else. There are also shareware, which will have to fork out only for a sunbed. But for free, only "cheese in a mousetrap" - the beaches are crowded and the sea is dirty. For a more comfortable experience by the water, it is worth choosing places outside the city.

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

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

Far from the city along the coast of "Big Yalta" you can visit: the village of Massandra (where you can taste wines on an excursion to the famous winery), Livadia (popular because here is the summer residence of Tsar Nicholas II), in Gaspra it is worth looking at the castle " swallow's Nest", On Miskhor 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 Cathedral of Alexander Nevsky. And also A.P. Chekhov, Nikitsky Botanical Garden, Mount "Ai-Petri", 98 meter waterfall "Uchan-Su".

With prices, of course, here as in Europe. Housing prices bite and you won't be able to find anything right away - it's worth preparing in advance. In the private sector, rental housing - from 800 rubles, hotels and hotels from 3000-3500. Products can be bought at chain hypermarkets at generally affordable prices. Entertainment, of which there is a dime a dozen, will require a percentage of the family budget. This resort cannot be called economical or budget, but all picturesque and Beautiful places worth seeing, since we decided that this summer it is better to relax in the Crimea.

• Alupka

  Awesome resort on the South Coast ( South coast), but only with children there is no entertainment here, except for the sea. With a child, you will have to go to Yalta (30 minutes) or to the Simeiz water park (5 kilometers).

  The coast, and accordingly the beaches themselves, are pebbly and narrow, with the exception of one "Cote d'Azur" (sand prevails 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 the famous Vorontsov Palace and the "Swallow's Nest" (in the town of Gaspar).
  

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

• Gurzuf with Artek

  Eco-friendly resort South Crimea is located near the Ayu-Daga mountain (according to local beliefs it was nicknamed “Bear Mountain”). 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, you should go by boat to the foot of the bear mountain - there are much less people there and it is calmer (just discuss the return time in advance).

  The private sector is scarce here - it is located in two districts: in the old town and in the microdistrict. Room prices start at 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. From entertainment you can be content with beach attractions.

  For children, there is a children's camp "Artek", famous since Soviet times (prices are the same as for holidays in Turkey). Adults can visit the Chekhov dacha-museum or taste the vaunted Crimean wine "White Muscat of Red Stone" (on an excursion to the cellars of the "Massandra" plant for 1000 rubles). In general, people come here to have a rest because of the natural beauty.

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

The best vacation in Crimea - Eastern Crimea

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

• Zander

  This is where to go to have a rest this summer, and this is the seaside pearl - Sudak. Many tourists have discovered here for themselves best rest in Crimea. As many as 2 kilometers of sand mixed with pebbles of the paradise sunny beach.

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

  On an excursion to have fun, you can go to the ancient Genoese fortress on the Fortress Hill. Tourists in droves climb this architectural monument and enjoy the views of the bay and the sea. And in the fortress itself there is something to do - museums, ancient buildings. For adults, the company "Sudak" offers excursions from the wine-making plant "Massandra" - about tasting delicate wines.

  And for children, it's just the coolest and the most large water park(children's complex - from 900 rubles). In the center of the city 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). Beach with the purest water- "Turtle".

  Diving enthusiasts also have plenty to do. In early August, the international knightly festival "Genoese helmet" (in the Sudak fortress) is held here.

  Rest in the private sector and housing prices start at 350 rubles. The hotels of the hotel are more expensive - from 1000. You can eat both in an inexpensive dining room and in budget cafes at boarding houses and sanatoriums. Cheaper products are better purchased on the market. If you are looking for where it is better to relax in the Crimea with children - Sudak with its quartz sandy beach and gentle entrance to the sea, this is it.

• Feodosia

  This almost European resort located in the southeast of the peninsula on the Black Sea coast. If you translate the name from Greek - "given by God." Indeed, an impressively picturesque place.

  All beaches on the coastal area are sandy with a gentle 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, "Detsky", "Azure", "Ukraine", "Bounty", "Pearl". Feodosia welcomes its guests with various water activities: water slides, "bananas", diving, fishing. You can, if you wish, fly on a paraglider or parachute, on hot-air balloon above the sea.
  

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

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

• Kerch

  And how do you visit and relax in "Russian Rome or Greece", how do you enjoy the sea on the sand warmed by the sun. 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. It is the easternmost city of the peninsula. In the center there are no beaches at all - one and that is small (30 meters in total).

  That is understandable, because this city is a port. Nevertheless, there are plenty of beaches for vacationers, as well as rental housing. All beaches are conditionally free with sandy or pebble-sandy shores. Seashells are darkness. And here you can also watch a miracle - in August water phosphorus and the glow looks like a fairy tale. The most popular beach is the Central City ("SunDali"), quite clean and well-groomed, with shallow waters.
  

  So, if you are looking for a better place to relax in Crimea with children this summer, we advise you to go to Kerch. Everyone will like the ancient ruins of "Ponticapaeum" (Kerch is only one year younger than Rome). And how many excavations were there: the crypt of Demeter, the Tsar's 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 Ride to the Kerch fortress on a guided tour of this ancient structure(very much nothing has survived) - maybe among the many underground passages you will find the one that leads through the whole 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 - "Bulganak". They throw healing mud on the surface, containing boron, soda and iodine. You see, you can rest and heal, or strengthen the immune system for prevention. You can also go to the world famous and best mud deposits - Lake Chokrak for medical treatment. Healing mud with hydrogen sulphide springs will relieve you of almost any ailment.

  Rocks "Elken-Kaya" and the ancient ruins of the city of Kimmerik, which in the protected area "Opuk" will attract you with their natural beauty. Prices for housing and accommodation (food) are the same as in Feodosia: renting a room from 300 rubles.

Western Crimea - the best inexpensive resorts for summer vacations

The west is mainly represented by long sandy beaches. The shallow and gently sloping bottom allows the sea to warm up faster. For a family vacation with children in search of a better place to relax in Crimea, western Crimea is what you need.

This region is slowly settled down by tourists - there are many wild beaches along the entire coast. They like to rest here as "savages", in tents or in caravans.

The most frequently visited and equipped in this part of the peninsula are Evpatoria, Saki and Sevastopol. You can also rest comfortably and safely in other villages: Andreevka, Balaklava, Lyubimovka, Mirny, Nikolaevka, Olenevka, Peschanoe, Popovka, Chernomorskoe, Mezhvodnoe.

Unlike other shores, the west is the cheapest in terms of recreation. To everything, you can add a significant plus - the healing waters and mud of the lakes Evpatoria and Saki.

Well, let's run along the coast of the western Crimea:

• Evpatoria

  Since Soviet times, this place has been visited for recreation at sea. There is a huge number of boarding houses and sanatoriums. In the vicinity of the city there are many lakes with salt water and medicinal mud. A mild, almost Italian climate, a lot of sun and delicate golden sand, warmed by the sun's rays - every year more and more attract tourists and vacationers.

  Wide and long, with a gentle bottom, sandy beaches invite guests to relax, especially with children. Of course, most of the beaches are paid. This is truly heaven for children's recreation... 9 km away there is an awesome by European standards water park "Banana Republic" - 8 swimming pools, 25 water attractions. Add to it a dolphinarium, an arboretum and a dinopark, not to mention the entertainment on the beaches themselves.
  

  And yet - the Aquapark " Fairytale city"At Lukomorya" "on Kirov Street (tickets from 600 rubles), a large Aquarium in the form of a cave (tickets from 300 rubles), Donuzlav Base of the Evpatoria Dolphinarium with a sea salt lake, Amusement Park "Riolend" (0t 60 rubles). Your children will be delighted and will not have time to get bored. Evpatoria is an ancient city (2500 years old), so you can safely go to admire: the Juma-Jami mosque, the Kerkinitida settlement, the Pirates of the Black Sea Museum, the Wine House Museum, the WolFram Fire Theater (fire show).

  Two famous lakes: Sasyk-Sivash in the east and Moinak lake in the west - will heal you and remove all sores. As we have already noticed, the prices here are democratic. It is easy to find housing at a price of 300 rubles per person in the private sector. And from 500 in the hotel and hotel. A city with a sufficient and developed infrastructure, so there are no problems with food and grocery shopping.

• Sevastopol

  Maybe this city cannot be called a resort town, but it is worth it for us to tell about it. Most often tourists come here because of the many attractions. But nobody canceled the beach vacation either. The entire coastline is dotted with sandy beaches.

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

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

• Saki

  Rest in Crimea with therapeutic and recreational functions, victory over ailments, healing mud that really helps the sick (brine, which is raised from the bottom of the salty Saki Lake), a pleasant European climate, health-improving air, a resort paradise for wheelchair users - these are all Saki (25 thousandth town, 20 kilometers from Evpatoria).
  

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

  The Saki resort owes its fame to the lake - this is one of the iconic attractions. There is also the Greco-Scythian settlement of Kara-Tobe, an arboretum, a pump-room (source) of mineral water. For children - a lunopark and all beach activities. In a dolphinarium or a water park, you can go to Evpatoria. Nearby is the Banana Republic water park and the Solnyshko entertainment complex with a beautiful clean beach. You can taste the delicious wine at the tasting at the "Seventh Heaven". The prices for housing and living are the same as those of the Evpatorskys.

• Peaceful

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

  With children, you can visit the dolphinarium with fighting dolphins. Here is what vacationers say from previous seasons: “... not far from Mirny, next to Popovka, there is an amazing place for recreation -“ South Spit ”, artificially created. On the one hand, Lake Donulaw, with its warm salty waters and healing properties silt, similar to the therapeutic 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 rested in the Neptune co-op. Not as crowded as in Popovka, where Kazantip is. Behind it, we discovered another healing lake "Oyburskoye" - you lie on the water and do not drown - just like in the Dead Sea! Blue clay raised from the bottom and next to it is black medicinal mud. "

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 towns of this side are Simferopol and Bakhchisarai.

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

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

When choosing a place for recreation 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
• Rental prices
• Prices for the purchase of groceries and food
• Clinics and hospitals

The most popular place among vacationers with children, we can safely call the western coast of Crimea, in particular Evpatoria - a gentle flat bottom, shallow water, healing air and waters, velvety delicate fine sand, accessibility of beaches, cheap housing and accommodation, safe and comfortable.

The next most popular is East End peninsula. And this is Feodosia, with its similar to the Italian climate, warm sea, developed infrastructure, entertainment for kids.

And as for the south, and "speech is silent" - definitely the resort town of Alushta and its environs, "Big Yalta". In Yalta itself, and in its environs, prices are an order of magnitude higher than on other shores.

Rest in Crimea for youth - where is better

What you need for a youth holiday at the sea:

• The sea itself and the beach
• Nightclubs and parties until the morning
• Well, at prices, so as not to leave "in shorts"

The coolest and funniest resorts for young people: Yalta and Alushta, Simeiz, Evpatoria, Koktebel and Sudak, Kazantip in Popovka.

Where better to relax in Crimea - reviews of vacationers 2016-2017

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

Most of the reviews are, of course, positive:

• Mother Olya. See Spit Belyaus, half an hour from Tarkhankut. Last year they were there, super. Choose the hotels yourself.
• Anastasia: We had a rest in Peschaniy, near Evpatoria - we liked it. Everything is clean, the sea is great, with a child to relax in peace and quiet is just lovely. But those who want entertainment will not like it very much, and it is not convenient to go on excursions. But the family will soak up the beaches and drink homemade wine in the evenings - that's the thing!
• Evgeniy. In the western Crimea there is a small, very cozy village of Chernomorskoe. It has the cleanest air on the entire peninsula! The most beautiful and cleanest sea! Nice beaches. Cheap accommodation is offered at every turn. The very thing you need to take a break from the bustle of the city. And also gain strength. We have been going there for three years now. Really like. We find our own accommodation not far from the sea. The choice is huge! Everyone! Recommend!
• Andrey. We rested in Evpatoria in July 2012. We settled on Uritsky. I liked everything very much. The owners were welcoming and friendly, prompting them where to eat better, where to buy what, where to go. The beach is not far away, the people are really too many. We ate in the dining room, the prices and the choice pleased. 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 not just a trip to the sea, but real rest when you have no problems, rush and stress. We decided next year to go back to Evpatoria, to those owners.
• Konstantin. We rested in Alushta in September 2014. I liked everything very much. The size of the city is just that. Not big and not small. The sea is clean, the beaches are well-groomed. Cafes, restaurants and entertainment are enough. Another thing that I liked very much was that it was 30-40 minutes before Yalta and there was no need to push in Yalta itself. There tourists, as they say, have nowhere to fall for an apple. And all the palaces calmly drove around. Themselves without a guided tour. Only they did not manage to get to Sevastopol. This year we will be driving them. The wife, of course, really liked the Crimea. The sea and nature are of course awesome there. You go through the mountains, the grapes grow. Air that you want to inhale twice as much. We liked Alushta very much. And the prices are tolerable.
• Zinaida. In 2010, I was vacationing with my family in Sudak. Our so-called vacation (((lasted 7 days. These 7 days seemed like an eternity to me !!! Already on day 3 I really wanted to return home to Kharkov. Everyone who plans family holiday, especially with children, Sudak is not at all the place where you can relax and have fun. During our stay in Sudak, and this was the month of July, the people were in darkness !!! There was nowhere to put a bag on the beach, let alone lie down or even sit down. The water is eerily green with an awful smell of rotten algae. All in all a very noisy and dirty place, at least during this time of the year. Our long-planned vacation ended with an infectious disease for the whole family! In general, there are the most, that neither is, terrible memories of this place, although I really love Crimea, especially the South Coast! To everyone who wants to have a good family rest, get a charge of vivacity and energy, I recommend such as Gurzuf, Simeiz, Faros, etc., and for those who want parties and new temporary acquaintances, just need to go in the direction of Sudak!
• Victoria. We were in Koktebel, Primorye boarding house) The kids liked it, and my husband and I too. We chose this boarding house because it is convenient for the kids - 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, from about 500 to 800 rubles per person per day. We were in the 1st building, there is a stunning sea view. There you can order separate meals for the kids, though you will have to pay a little extra.
• Oksana. We rested with a 2-year-old child in Beregovoye, not far from Feodosia. I liked it very much! The beach is very clean, sandy, clear water. We stayed at the Dominica hotel (swimming pool, playground, for children they cook separately what you order).
• Victoria. When we were on vacation in Crimea for the first time, we also went to Beregovoe, where we liked the Priboy base very much, a pool with a waterfall, massage, a salt cave and a playroom and playground for children, whatever you want, our first experience was also with the agency “On 7 Hills ". Honestly, a very wonderful place, even the dolphinarium is very close))
• Alexander. It is generally better not to rest in Crimea. A successful combination of high cost and poor service makes the rest a self-flagellation. Better yet, do not 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 is better to look at any other country ...

Tips for those who want to have a better vacation in Crimea in 2018

• 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 the place under the roof is not occupied. There are, of course, free rooms or cabins in less popular resorts.
• Excursions. We think that it is worth visiting the sights of the Crimea on your own, rather than ordering them. There is an opinion that local guides and tour guides are "welded" and inflate prices.
• Food and nutrition. If you cook yourself, then definitely, you should buy food in chain stores, or, in extreme cases, on the market. And so, in every resort town there are inexpensive canteens and cafes where you can dine for 500 rubles cheaply and comfortably together.
• Mobile communications and internet. Actually, you have come to rest, so it is worth using gadgets for reasonable purposes, when necessary. And if you can't stand it, get a local SIM card and choose a home with Wi-Fi.
• Money. Although there are many banks on the territory of the peninsula. Nevertheless, we believe that it is better to take cash with you in exchange.
• Children. If you are relaxing with children, then do not forget about the nature of the coast on the beach (sandy, pebble, rocky) and remoteness from the sea. The best solution for families with children in Crimea is the pebble and sandy beaches of the South and West coast.
• Road. Soon they will build a bridge across the Kerch Strait - this 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 by car, transfer to railway transport). 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. Do not forget about the "Single ticket" yet.

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 rest and pastime in one of the warm, clean and welcoming corners of the planet.

In Crimea, resting places can be found everywhere. To choose the right settlement on Black sea coast there are many factors to consider. For example, housing prices, accommodation and living conditions, transport connection, the surrounding nature, the proximity of beaches and social infrastructure. The choice is also influenced by who the trip is planned with - with children, elderly parents, or it will be a group of friends.

Most recently, Crimea became part of Russia. And it is natural that the majority of people who previously went on vacation to Krasnodar want to visit this wonderful city and appreciate all of it from “all sides”. However, due to the strong influx of tourists, prices for accommodation and various entertainment activities have increased significantly (by about 10% - 15%) and now a trip to the sea is very expensive. But not everything is so bad, vacation in Crimea is also possible cheaply. And believe me, cheap does not mean poor quality, the main thing is to know how to properly plan your vacation.

The main rules for cheap holidays in Crimea

So, you have decided to relax by the sea in the wonderful city of Crimea, but do not know how to do it so that your funds will be enough not only to pay for housing, but also for entertainment? There are some rules to help you make your holiday unforgettable.

Rule # 1

Rest in Crimea cheap and cheerful is possible only during periods of decline in the influx of tourists, the so-called low seasons. First low season starts on January 15th and ends in mid-May. The second season starts around the first half of October and ends at the end of December. During these periods of time, you can have a great rest, since the prices in Crimea for housing, food and attractions are almost 2 - 3 times lower than in the high season, which begins in June and ends in August.

You can also have a cheap rest in Crimea during the periods from May 15 to June 15 and from September 15 to October 15. During these intervals, prices, of course, are not the same as in the low season, a little higher, but the weather is most favorable for recreation - there is an opportunity to swim in the warm sea and sunbathe in the sun.

Rule # 2

Choose the right resort. In Crimea, there are many villages that are happy to host tourists. But some of them have a very developed infrastructure, and therefore prices for housing and recreation are high.

For example, on the South Coast, where the most popular resorts of this country (Yalta, Alupka and Alusht) are located, rest is several times more expensive than in those resort areas that are located in the Western and East coast Crimea. These are Black Sea, Mezhvodny, Beregovoy, etc.

Rule # 3

Take your time with the choice of housing. It is very easy to find temporary housing in Crimea, but not all of them are budget options. You should not rent a room in the private sector, because here, except for 4 walls, nothing else surrounds you.

But at the camp site there are the same conditions as in the private sector (toilet, shower, bed, etc.). But besides the fact that the cost of housing at the camp site is much lower, it also has its own parking lot, where you can leave your car, as well as places for barbecuing and recreation with children (various play areas).

Well, if you have absolutely no money for housing, then you can relax and savages. Of course, there are no conditions, but there is absolutely no need to pay for accommodation. In addition, many people choose this particular option, since it is the most extreme and gives more positive emotions.
