Features of rest in the Crimea in March

Rest in Crimea has always been popular with our tourists. Now the direction is experiencing a special rise. At the resorts of Crimea developed infrastructure. The construction of new facilities is underway. If you have already been to the Crimea, then surely you plan to come again.

Vacation does not always fall on a warm season, and if everything is clear with the summer season, then the question arises as to what to do at the resort, for example, in March. We offer many ready-made solutions for a comfortable rest in the Crimea in early spring.

The sun, the sea, the beach - so many people think when they hear the word "Crimea". Therefore, March does not attract tourists for recreation, since all this is still impossible. But to come to the Crimea in the spring can be beneficial, because:

• you can enjoy really beautiful, juicy and fragrant spring nature;
• there is no large number of people;
• your wallet will not be so much devastated as in summer: rental housing and entertainment will be much cheaper.

March is the month when trees, grass and shrubs begin to bloom in the Crimea. You can enjoy blooming snowdrops, hyacinths, high-growing sleep-grass, gorgeous pink almonds, luxurious magnolia and amazing henomeles (Japanese quince).

However, at the same time frosts are possible at night, occasional rains and cold, harsh winds darken walks by the sea. In early March, the weather is unstable: the rain is replaced by the sun and vice versa. It is usually cold at night, sometimes the temperature drops to 0 degrees. You will need an umbrella and warm waterproof clothing.

Air temperature depends on the climate.

• It will be warmer in the south - The weather warms up from +6 (at the beginning of the month) to +10 (at the end of the month), but often there are cloudy days. The good news is that there is no prolonged rain.
• In the center and in the north of Crimea the weather is cooler, cold winds blow and it rains. A slight cooling is possible at night, and this is normal. Daytime temperatures are usually within +8 degrees. The only thing that darkens the beauty of March is the cold wind, accompanied by dank rains.
• Eastern Crimea pleases with a large number of sunny days, rare rain and warmer weather - by the end of the month the air warms up to +16. But it is too early to swim.
• West Crimea characterized by comfortable weather - the thermometer reaches +9 degrees during the day with almost no rain. This is the perfect time for a spa vacation. Only a sharp wind blowing from the sea and cloudy days spoil the rest a bit.

The Black Sea is warming slowly. The temperature is kept within +8 degrees, which is not conducive to comfortable bathing. Only walruses and people in special wetsuits can afford to swim in the March Sea.
