About the Crimea they say that this is one of the places on earth where a person should visit at least once in his life. It is said, of course, figuratively, but not without reason. The peninsula is literally teeming with corners promising an amazing rest. Here, no connoisseurs of silence and solitude, no extremals, no youth, no children, no people of the older generation. However, going on vacation, it is not superfluous to know where it is better to stay in the Crimea.
For fans of expensive hotels and the highest service, hotels in the southern part of the peninsula - Alupka, Foros, Yalta, Simeiz - are the most suitable. True, here not always you will enjoy the sea. Firstly, even in the height of summer, the water in it does not warm up enough. Secondly, for recreation with children there will not be comfortable conditions, because the sea has a great depth. But all this is compensated by magnificent views and wonderful nature.
For those who want to swim in the warm sea, bask in the sun and breathe dry air, it is recommended to go to the west coast of the peninsula. In Evpatoria, Saki, Storm, Mezhvodnoye and Mykolayivka, you will find cheap hotels, sanatoriums and boarding houses. The sea is almost always warm, the coast is shallow, the beaches are very well equipped, the slopes to the water are perfectly arranged.
Fans of extreme conditions and active sports will get maximum pleasure during the rest at Cape Tarkhankut. Every year, wishing to visit here more and more, so you'll have to try to find a free patch for your tent. Minor inconveniences are fully reimbursed by a deep and transparent sea - a paradise for divers.
If you can not stop at Tarkhankut, look for a place to relax in a tent in the New World, Gurzuf, Solnechnogorsk, Koktebel, Partenit. Conditions there are not worse, and the influx of lovers of marching life ("savages") is less.
The maximum comfortable weather in the Crimea lasts about a month: from the middle of June to the middle of July. The sky will be clear, the sea - clean, the temperature - pleasant. At other times in Yalta, for example, it is very hot and humid. In August in Evpatoria and in Feodosia, a dry hot wind often blows from the steppes, jellyfish appearing in the sea in the western part of the peninsula, poisoning the rest of the bathing people.
If you want to go to the Crimea for treatment, it is recommended to purchase a voucher already at the end of winter - early spring. People with respiratory diseases are useful to come to the peninsula in the spring. In case of problems with the cardiovascular system, optimal rest is considered in the Crimea either in the middle of June or in the beginning of autumn.
