Crimea seems to most of our fellow citizens to be a well-known peninsula. Over the decades of its active development there appeared a variety of resort corners. Without a deep study of them, one cannot speak about a thorough knowledge of the area.

The very name of the Crimea is associated with a serene vacation on the coast. To get the expected positive emotions, you need to choose the right parts of the coast. Pebble beaches suit relatively few tourists, but most still prefer to relax on the soft sand. It is nicer than all the time to watch where you can get a tan, where you can dive, and where you can not. because it is advisable to study in advance the list of the best sandy beaches of the peninsula and use it when planning a trip.

South of Evpatoria, down to the town of Saki (including his own), there is a string of stunning golden shores. Travelers willingly come here from May to the end of the velvet season. Local beaches are not just beautiful and pleasant, they also have a certain healing effect. With the main recreation areas debugged effective communication by road and rail lines. An attractive feature of this area is the abundance of thoughtful and diverse entertainment.

A long and unbranched strip of sand runs along the coast near the villages of Popovka and Storm. Despite the presence of a separate infrastructure, the total length of the coastal line is 12 km. If you start from the reviews of previous holidaymakers, it turns out that these places rightly claim to the leading position in the whole Crimea. As for the west coast, Belaus Spit stands out there. It is inferior to the “Popovka-Storm” section in length (10 km), but not in sand purity.

The spit was named after the ancient settlement of the Scythian era, which was excavated by archaeologists just in these places. Chernomorskoe village is 20 km away. There are always few people on the spit, which allows you to relax and rest from the noise of the metropolis. Since the width of the land reaches 200 m, it will be easy to come by car and set up tents. And lovers of maximum comfort will be able to find nearby well-equipped housing.

And in terms of the concentration of important components, it is the Crimean mineral mud that occupies a leading position in the world. It even surpasses the legendary Dead Sea mud.

On the peninsula it is quite possible to find cheap options for leisure, while their quality is not so bad. On closer examination, it turns out that it is sometimes more profitable and more pleasant to spend time in the Crimea than in the Sochi area.

Places that are little known to the general public are more likely to fall into the “budget” category. So, on the west bank, the expensive Yevpatoria is harmoniously complemented by the fully affordable village of Peschanoye. It also provides optimal conditions for youth leisure. The distance to the regional capital is 50 km. Covered his route taxis, leaving the road every 30 minutes.

The sea in Sandy is warming up perfectly, the sand is also comfortable. The resort is characterized by peace and tranquility, it is not difficult to find water attractions. Fans of ancient cities, historical heritage can enjoy a tour of the Scythian settlement. Romantics stroll along the Alma River. From here they organize excursions to Bakhchisarai, Sevastopol, Evpatoria.

The settlement Nikolaevka is even closer to Simferopol. Here the beaches are covered with soft sand and equipped at the proper level. Visitors to the resort can count on a wide range of water rides. Even the water park is organized. Cafes, bars, restaurants and several nightclubs work stably in the village.

If, however, choose guest houses or private housing, you can reduce daily costs to 200 rubles. However, comfortable leisure can be obtained on the eastern coast of the peninsula. A vivid example of this is a trip to Kerch.

Despite the cost-effectiveness of proposals, the quality of infrastructure and entertainment in this city is at a decent level. On the Azov Sea, the village of Shelkino is rapidly gaining popularity. Its attractiveness is associated with the warm sea and the comfort of the coast. A good alternative is a trip to Resort, Sea or Ordzhonikidze. For budget holidays, these places are valuable even close to large resorts with a developed infrastructure.

You can settle here in private housing, paying from 300 rubles per day.Those staying at the recreation centers will have to deposit at least 500 rubles. And life in a hotel costs at least 800 rubles.

Among these options worth mentioning Small Mayak villagelocated in the interval from Yalta to Alushta. It is pleasant to visit him at least thanks to the cleanest sea and equally clean air. The climate also pleases tourists, including those coming with children. Settling in comfortable hotels is not necessary, if you choose a wooden cottage, you can reduce costs up to 600 rubles.

Near Alushta deserves attention Solnechnogorsk village. Despite the low popularity, in these places is quite acceptable infrastructure. The excellent beaches are framed by pleasant-looking nature. Renting private housing will cost at least 200 rubles, which is quite a bit by modern standards. Around the same area is located the village of Malorechenskoye, characterized by high quality of the coast.

Finishing the review of Alushta neighborhoods, it is worth specifying on the village of Rybachye. The local beach is not only beautiful and pleasant, it is also very large. An attractive feature of these places is the small depth of the sea and a weak bottom slope. That is why it is recommended to go with children. Not too demanding vacationers rush to campgrounds and recreation centers.

Those who are not satisfied with hiking conditions can settle in miniature hotels or in the private sector. You can eat in the cafe. But some vacationers prefer to buy products in small bazaars and in stores to cook their own food.

The lack of special entertainment on site is largely offset by the speed of arrival in Yalta, Alushta, Alupka. In addition to specific areas for budget trips to the Crimea, it is important to know other nuances.

Regardless of the specific season to save will have to refuse offers with meals. It is much cheaper to buy food and cook their own food. For the same reason, checking into hotels is less profitable than renting real estate in the private sector. Sometimes it is useful to book offers 2-3 months before departure. With success, this reduces costs by 10-20% compared with ordering numbers "on the way to the station."

If tourists want to enjoy not the most expensive and not the cheapest, but the most popular resorts of Crimea, then they should bear in mind 10 best options. Indisputable Yalta occupies a leading position. Yes, in this city the rest is expensive and sometimes noisy. But all this can not erase the objective merits. Visitors to Yalta must try the red mullet. After that, you can enjoy a walk along the promenade. A rare tourist does not have a photograph after his departure against the background of the Swallow's Nest castle.

In second place in the ranking of the main resorts of Crimea deservedly turns out to be Sevastopol. “Unapproachable for enemies,” as the old song says, the city has a very unusual atmosphere. Even those who do not value highly the military-historical component of the rest will be delighted with:

• old fortresses;
• magnificent museums;
• graceful bays.

For arrival with children definitely recommend Theodosius. In addition to the mild climate, this place is appreciated for its high air quality. Visitors to the resort can count on an extensive educational program, starting from the abundance of ancient monuments. Connoisseurs of painting will be delighted with visiting the gallery named after Aivazovsky. It occupies a house that was once used by the artist himself.

Not worse is leisure in Alushta. Not without reason, since the end of the nineteenth century, resort visitors began to come here actively. Coniferous trees, which grow in abundance at some distance from the coast, fill the air with valuable phytoncides. This reduces the severity of many diseases.

But Evpatoria causes conflicting impressions. At first, for acquaintances already with Alushta and Yalta, it seems to be a focus of peace and tranquility. But the long history of the city fully compensate for this moment. Yes, and lovers of beach leisure just enjoy the long sandy shores. They are invariably pure and attractive.

However, tourists traveling to Kerch, too, will not be disappointed. In this city you can swim alternately in the Azov and Black Seas. Kerch waters are appreciated by lovers of sailing, and those who prefer excursions to ancient monuments.

Sudak is a more modern city where a lot of popular movies were shot. Filmmakers have long appreciated the beauty of these places, tourists, too, but they also pay attention to the abundance of attractions and cafes.

Bakhchisarai, sung by the legendary Pushkin, in the XXI century, lost the brilliant pathos of the capital of the Crimean khans. This is dominated by the private sector. The people who settled in it every morning slowly draw Turkish coffee and tea on the street verandas. Hot drinks are very well complemented by homemade sweets. And most of the day will be devoted to inspection of the remains of the palace.

For youth leisure is recommended to visit Koktebel. There is always noisy and fun. Travelers go water skiing and windsurfing. Some tourists climb into the sky on hang gliders and paragliders, dive into the water. An abundance of nightlife places harmoniously fit into the resort ensemble.

Koktebel shores are clean, and the water in the sea does not disappoint even the most captious vacationers. But in the New World, connoisseurs of fine taste of wine are actively traveling. Divers also gather in the same village.
