- The resort with developed infrastructure is suitable for older children, but for children, on the contrary, it is quiet and secluded.
- Find out in advance whether an epidemic is raging in the country/resort.

Summer. Good on the Black, Adriatic and Mediterranean seas: Bulgaria, Turkey, Croatia, Greece, Cyprus, Spain, Italy, France, Tunisia, Montenegro, Albania, Georgia. It might be a little hot for kids. It’s a bad idea to go on vacation with children to Egypt and the Emirates in the summer - it’s very hot.

Winter. Beach - Thailand, Maldives, UAE, India (Goa), Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Jamaica. Ski holidays - Austria, Bulgaria, Switzerland. Excursion - Spain (Canary Islands), Italy, Finland.
Spring. Excursion holidays in European countries, Georgia, Turkey, Israel (May). At the beginning of spring there are still good conditions for a seaside holiday in the winter resorts of Asia, but at the end it becomes hot and humid.

Summer is approaching - the best time to relax with children. Many parents plan where and how to spend their holidays. After all, you really want your child to not only improve his health in the summer, but also get a lot of memorable impressions.
Perhaps a trip to the sea is the most popular type of holiday with a child. It is not without reason that it is believed that salty sea water, hot sand and gentle sun can harden little vacationers and strengthen their health for the whole next year. When trying to choose a vacation spot, they usually give preference to resorts where parents will be comfortable and children will not be bored. Let's take a closer look at where it is better to relax with a child at sea.
Vacation on the Azov Sea
You can relax on the Sea of Azov with a child from early spring to late autumn. The water of this sea contains a small amount of salt, and along the entire coastline it has a shallow depth. These factors cause the water to heat up quickly. You can swim in the Sea of Azov already at the end of April. At this time, the water temperature reaches twenty degrees, and in the summer, at the height of the season, thirty-two.
Holidays on the Sea of Azov come first for families coming with small children. Everyone loves the safe depth and warm water.
There are sanatoriums and boarding houses on the coast where you can stay. If necessary, in case of illness or injury, there is always the opportunity to seek help from the best specialist.
There is another reason why holidays with children are considered therapeutic. This region is famous for its salt lakes. By taking mud baths you can get rid of diseases of the skin, joints and spine. Healing mud and blue clay enhances metabolism in the human body and accelerates blood flow in blood vessels.
The number of summer vacationers on the Sea of Azov is increasing every year. The network of family sanatoriums and boarding houses is expanding here, hotel rooms are being updated, and new amusement parks are being built. In terms of quality and service provided, the resorts of the Azov Sea are becoming better and more similar to the famous resorts of Bulgaria.
You can get to resort towns located on the Azov Sea, for example, Yeisk or Temryuk, from any corner of the country without any problems. Local residents, who understand the value of the tourism business for their region, are very hospitable and welcoming.
Black Sea
The Black Sea coast has long attracted Russian tourists. The most popular resort towns among vacationers are Tuapse, Loo, Kabardinka, Gelendzhik, Sochi, and Anapa. Each of them has its own charms and disadvantages.
According to statistics, in the summer people most often vacation in Anapa with a child. This year-round resort is famous not only for its cozy beaches and gentle warm sea, but also for its developed infrastructure. Anapa has all possible conditions for a family holiday. Equipped squares, parks, playgrounds, modern attractions and entertainment centers attract a large number of vacationers from Russia and other countries to this resort town.
In the summer season, prices for holidays with children in Anapa remain quite reasonable, thanks to which many vacationers will be able to spend an unforgettable vacation at the resorts of the Black Sea coast. Here you can easily choose the best hotel, which will create all the conditions for the recreation of little tourists, from a special children's menu to the services of experienced teachers. The beach offers various sports games and water attractions.
Anapa water parks are extremely popular, where you can have a wonderful time with the whole family.
Thus, the advantages of this resort include:
- shallow warm sea with a flat bottom;
- sandy beaches;
- developed infrastructure for children's entertainment;
- convenient transport links with other cities (Anapa has an airport and a railway station);
- reasonable housing prices.
Sochi is a great place for a family holiday But it should also be said about some of the shortcomings of this resort town. From mid-summer, the water in the sea begins to bloom and becomes cloudy.
Children's health resort - Crimea
Any resort in Crimea is worthy of attention and admiration. The sandy beaches of Evpatoria and Yalta, Feodosia and Gurzuf have been attracting vacationers with children in the summer for decades. The ideal subtropical climate, recommended by doctors for health improvement, contributes to the location of many children's sanatoriums and camps on the Crimean coast. The resort city of Evpatoria especially stands out among them.
Evpatoria is the best children's resort in Crimea
If the child has not yet reached the age of three, before the trip you should consult a doctor about the place and time of rest. A few days after moving to a new place usually take the body to adapt to the climate change, so the best option would be to take three weeks to rest.
Although you can relax in Crimea anywhere, the most favorite places for families with children are Evpatoria and Feodosia. The water warms up better here, the beaches are sandy, there is a lot of sun and an excellent entertainment infrastructure.
Quiet villages such as Nikolaevka, Kurortnoye, Beregovoe are less popular. There is almost no entertainment here, but there are low prices and spacious beaches. You can find holiday accommodation in Crimea at hochu-na-yuga.ru/krym/.
On the southern coast of Crimea, the beaches are pebble, the sea is deep and getting to the beach is quite problematic due to the high shore. But both in Yalta and Alushta there are many vacationers with children, since there is something to have fun in the evening, where to go, what to see.
Holidays in Bulgaria
In an effort to relax in the summer with children at sea, tourists book trips to Bulgaria, which is in second place after Crimea in the list of inexpensive resorts. The climate of Bulgaria is optimal for strengthening the immune system and improving the health of the child.
People with problems of the respiratory system, nervous and endocrine systems come here, and return from vacation rested and healthier.
The most popular resorts in Bulgaria and the most visited by tourists with children are Sunny Beach, Albena, Golden Sands. The seashore here is flat, clean, well-groomed beaches strewn with fine sand are safe. There are always a lot of different entertainments and attractions for children on the beaches.
To prevent little tourists from getting bored, animators work with them. And for older children, you can choose an interesting excursion, or take part in a themed sea cruise “Pirate Party”, organized on a real yacht.
Summer holidays in Bulgaria are the most inexpensive and comfortable in terms of climatic conditions. If it is not possible to rent a hotel room, it is better to book an apartment with a kitchen. Then preparing a familiar meal for a small child will not be difficult, since the products in Bulgaria are of high quality and inexpensive.
Holidays in Spain
In Spain, Russians fell in love with Catalonia and the island of Mallorca. The spacious and clean sandy beaches of the Costa Dorada and Costa Brava will not leave anyone indifferent. The sea sand in these places, due to the tiny particles of mica it contains, literally sparkles in the sun, creating a feeling of joy and complete happiness. It’s nice to sit at the water’s edge, watching the steady rush of the waves, or kick a ball along the shore, take part in a relay race with your peers, or play beach volleyball. You certainly won't be bored here. And parents will not need to fear for their children, since the depth begins only thirty meters from the shore.
In this country, all beaches are city beaches and all tourists without exception have the right to use them, even if the beach is fenced off by the administration of a nearby hotel.
In European countries, tourism organizers have a very responsible attitude towards vacationers with children, so everything has been done here to provide tourists with children with a comfortable and complete vacation in the summer.
When you come to Spain in the summer, you should definitely visit the Port Aventura park, which will not leave either an adult or a child indifferent. It is located near the town of Salou. Here you can enjoy the best rides, have a bite to eat in cafes and restaurants, and have a photo shoot. School-age children will enjoy the numerous roller coasters, while younger visitors will best remember Sesame Land with its carousels, swings and mini-pools.
Trip to Greece
Another country where you can go on vacation in the summer with children is, of course, Greece. Low humidity and lush greenery help withstand the hot summer. And the beaches and sea in Greece are so clean that they seem simply sterile. Most often, tourists going on holiday to this country choose the islands of Crete, Rhodes and Kos. The sandy and pebbly coastline is equipped with umbrellas and sun loungers. Playgrounds, water slides and various attractions await their little guests.
Greece is a country with a long history. There are many attractions and ancient monuments here, a visit to which will diversify your holiday and be useful for broadening your child’s horizons.
Greece is an ideal place for a family holiday This is not the entire list of places where you can relax with children and swim in the sea. Experienced tourists probably have their own favorite routes. The choice of holiday destination usually depends on the financial capabilities of the parents and the child’s ability to tolerate long-distance travel and changes in climatic conditions.
Anyone who has ever planned a vacation trip with a small child has had to rack their brains, first choosing the destination country, and then the most suitable resort. Exotic countries are in demand by brave parents - after all, a sharp change in climate, a long flight and unexplored habitats... For the majority, certain requirements must be met by both natural conditions (sandy beaches, flat seabed, parks, green areas, nature reserves), and infrastructure (hotels with an emphasis on family holidays and children's animators, water parks, zoos, gaming clubs). We've saved you time by reviewing a variety of holiday destinations and have compiled a list of resorts that are ideal for families with young children.
Costa Dorada, a resort part of the Balearic Sea coastline, fully lives up to its name, which can be translated into Russian as “Golden Coast”. This coast has long been chosen by married couples with children for their holidays: fine golden sand, a comfortable and gentle slope into the sea, many beaches have the Blue Flag flying over them, which means that they are clean, environmentally friendly and safe.
The Costa Dorada resorts are varied and can satisfy the needs of any family. Vacationers with very young children prefer quiet places like La Pineda or Miami Playa, hidden in the dense greenery of parks. Easy-going and inquisitive families choose Tarragona, where something is constantly being celebrated, or Salou, a family-friendly party town, in the immediate vicinity of which there is a large amusement park called Port Aventura.
Active teenagers and their fathers who keep themselves in shape will find resorts that provide their guests with the opportunity to try themselves in various sports: Calafell has excellent conditions for windsurfing and snorkeling, diving and water skiing, and L'Hospitalet de Infante is a paradise for mountain lovers clean air, rock climbing, cycling in the highlands and playing golf.
Almost all hotels on the coast are ready to offer vacationing families the services of nannies and children's animators, splash pools, game clubs, and a special restaurant menu for the little ones.

What to see: The Costa Dorada is a harmonious interweaving of natural beauty with human history and culture. Children and adults will enjoy spending time at the Port Aventura amusement park and the Costa Caribe water park. You can learn a little more about the past of this place by admiring the ancient monuments (the Roman amphitheater and aqueduct are well preserved). Barcelona is located just a hundred kilometers from the resort coast, so by renting a car you can see the sights of the large city, as well as explore other towns and villages of the Costa Dorada.
When to go: From July to September, the air temperature here does not drop below 27 °C, the water is heated to 24 °C.
Majorca
The east coast of Mallorca, where the resort is located, is most suitable for holidays with small children Cala d'Or. A huge plus of this town is the fine sandy beaches of cozy bays surrounded by pine forests, which protect these islands of peace and quiet from the scorching sun and gusty winds. Cala d'Or itself, with its recent past as a fishing village, makes a peaceful impression with neat streets and low white houses.

Many parents annually choose Alcudia. This town is notable not only for its optimal natural conditions (clean sea, fine sand, very gentle entrance to the sea, healing pine air), but also for its infrastructure “tailored” for holidays with children - there is even a stroller rental service. Alcudia itself is a historical place; the ruins of a fortress, built in the 13th century to protect the settlement from pirate raids, are of great interest to tourists. And in the Albufera Natural Park you can see migratory birds of all kinds that fly here for the winter from all over Europe.
You can't ignore Santa Ponsa - a quiet resort town with a wonderful beach awarded the Blue Flag quality mark, a pine forest where parrots live, and the Jungle Park active recreation area.
Greece: Halkidiki, Peloponnese, Crete, Zakynthos, Rhodes and other islands
When it comes to family vacations with children, it is impossible not to remember: the resorts of this country have many significant advantages. Seashores densely covered with greenery, excellent cuisine, a common Orthodox mentality with the local population, an even warm climate and, of course, a rich historical and cultural heritage. School-age children will study stories about Ancient Greece, the gods of Olympus and mythical heroes with much more interest with such visual material than using standard textbooks.
Young children will be most comfortable in Halkidiki, located in the northern part of mainland Greece, and in the Peloponnese in the southern part of the country, as well as ideal natural conditions for children on the islands of Rhodes, Crete, Corfu, Zakynthos and Kos.
On the Peloponnese Peninsula, which is washed by the waters of the Ionian and Aegean seas, there is not yet such a high concentration of tourists as in other resorts in the country, and the Greeks themselves prefer to spend their holidays here. Most of the hotels here are family-type. The many ancient monuments and beautiful landscapes of the Peloponnese are conducive to walking, cycling and leisurely excursions in the surrounding area. It is convenient to relax with small children in the northern regions of the peninsula - Achaia and Corinthia. The most famous resort in this region is Loutraki, rich in mineral waters, hidden behind the mountain slopes.
What to see: The Peloponnese is the place where such major centers of Greek civilization as Sparta and Mycenae were located, and now tourists can admire their picturesque ruins. The natural resources of the peninsula are no less colorful: there are many waterfalls, caves and underground lakes. Both children and adults will find it interesting to stroll through the national bird park, which is protected by UNESCO.
While vacationing in Loutraki, be sure to visit the monastery of Agios Potapios, which is located on the top of Mount Gerania, and at the same time admire the view from there. If you are not used to sitting in one place, feel free to rent a car and explore the entire Peloponnese inside and out.
When to go. If the primary purpose of your trip is a beach holiday, then plan your vacation for the middle and end of summer. May and June are the months when ancient ruins look most advantageous, shaded by lush, fresh greenery. This is the best time for meditative contemplation and excursions.
Bulgaria: Sveti Vlas and St. Constantine and Helena
Arguments in favor of Bulgarian resorts: the climate here is even and mild, the sea is almost native, Black, and most importantly, low prices, which is very important for parents with small children. The most popular resort in Bulgaria is Sunny Beach, but children may not feel very comfortable there: there is a lot of noise, bustle, and people. But just a few kilometers from Sunny Beach there is a small resort town of Sveti Vlas, which began to receive tourists quite recently and has focused specifically on family holidays. Here children can feel much more comfortable - calm sea, silence and safety, healing pine air.
No worse than the young Sveti Vlas is one of the oldest Bulgarian resorts - St. Constantine and Helena, which is located near Varna. There are a lot of green spaces, clean mountain air and many mineral springs. The beach is fine sand, quite wide and long - as much as 5 kilometers, so there is enough space for everyone. The shores of the Black Sea here are very picturesque thanks to the bays and cliffs. When choosing accommodation in the resort, give preference to houses and hotels closer to the sea, because some beaches can only be reached by going down the stairs, and with a stroller it is quite inconvenient to overcome such an obstacle every day.
What to see. Near Sveti Vlas is Nessebar - an amazing ancient city, part of which sank under water a long time ago as a result of an earthquake, but in clear weather you can still admire the ruins from aboard a pleasure boat. Nessebar is protected by UNESCO. If you want to get out with the people, you can go from Sveti Vlas to Sunny Beach and have fun in the local water park or even at the disco.
The resort of St. Constantine and Helena is also located not far from noisy and party places: vacationers can go to Varna or Golden Sands.
When to go. The most comfortable air and water temperatures in Bulgaria are set in July and August. But even at the height of summer you are not immune from bad weather, however, every resort has heated pools for such a case.
Italy - Rimini, Riccione, Tuscany, Sardinia, Sicily
Of all the Italian seaside resorts, the most popular among families with small children are those located in Rimini, a province on the Adriatic coast. It is the local beaches that are most suitable for safely teaching children to swim, since the entrance to the sea is very convenient and gentle. Also, in their reviews, tourists who have visited Rimini unanimously note the modern water park "Aquafan", which is located some distance from the resort. A variety of slides, pools with artificial waves, Jacuzzis, waterfalls and playgrounds will diversify your holiday for both adults and children.
The purity of coastal waters, lush greenery and sandy beaches in shallow waters are characteristics not only of Rimini, but also of a number of other Italian resorts, for example, Cervia, Riccione, Cesenatico, Tuscany. These places are famous for their natural beauty, as well as well-developed infrastructure, ready to offer a lot of entertainment for children.
The best Italian beaches for families with children: Riccione (province of Emilia-Romagna), Marina de Grosseto (Tuscany) and San Vito Lo Capo (Sicily). If you decide to go to Sardinia, the most suitable beach on the island is the one located in the village of Capo Coda Cavallo. All of these beaches have various swings, slides and other attractions.
Egypt - Hurghada and surroundings
In addition to the well-known Hurghada, resorts located nearby are well suited for a family holiday: Soma Bay, Makadi Bay, Sahl Hasheesh.
Sahl Hasheesh is a relatively new and calm resort. Despite the fact that tourists are already coming here in full force, the town is still being built up and developed at the same time. But despite ongoing construction work, Sahl Hasheesh is always clean and well maintained. The coastline of the resort is quite diverse, so the beaches of some hotels are sandy and shallow, while residents of other hotels, on the contrary, can go scuba diving and admire the coral reefs. There is a paved path along the entire coastline, which is convenient for walking or cycling.
If we continue the conversation about diving, then lovers of contemplating underwater beauty will be delighted by the Sharm el-Naga coral reserve, which is located in the waters of Soma Bay. The resort of the same name has also been welcoming tourists for quite some time now. Distinctive features of the holiday that awaits you in Soma Bay are excursions to the ruins of cities of ancient Egyptian civilization, a clear, clean sea and high-quality diving.
When designing the Makadi Bay resort, much attention was paid to protecting tourists vacationing here from sandstorms that occur in the surrounding area. Another feature is its impeccable service, which is why Makadi Bay has even been nicknamed “the corner of Europe.” In general, the peculiarity of a holiday in Egypt is that the center of all events and entertainment is the hotel in which you live, so you must choose it responsibly.
What to see. The attractions of the above-described Egyptian resorts are traditional: corals and the remains of the city of Isis, which sank a long time ago for divers, a few monuments of ancient architecture scattered around the area, desert sands and a Bedouin settlement, which can be reached using a jeep safari service.
When to go. Tourists vacation in Egypt all year round, but with small children it is better to go here in the spring or autumn: the summer heat and winter sharp temperature changes cannot be called comfortable conditions for children.
Montenegro: Becici
The largest and most popular resort in Montenegro is Budva, but parents with a small child escaping the tourist noise will be more interested in the small village of Becici, from which Budva itself is just a stone's throw away - you can even walk to the city on foot. The infrastructure of Becici is more than comprehensive: here you will find a water park, catering establishments, and a tour service, and peace and tranquility will be a pleasant bonus. The beaches of the village are almost all paid; you can choose either sandy or pebble according to your taste. Another good thing about a family holiday in Montenegro is that the locals love children very much.
What to see. Montenegro is good for its varied natural resources, so it’s worth renting a car to have time to admire the canyons of the Moraca and Tara rivers, the highest road bridge in Europe, get to the Lovcen National Park, explore the old part of Budva, etc. It won’t take much time from here road to the Lustica peninsula, where truly pristine nature awaits you. Using the services of the Becici tour bureau, you can go to Albania for a couple of days or visit the Italian cities of Bari and Venice.
When to go. At the beginning and even mid-summer, the sea here can be quite cool. The optimal time to travel to Montenegro is August and September.
UAE: Ras al Khaimah and Fujairah
What to see. The United Arab Emirates is quite an exotic country for us, so you can admire everything here - from architecture to natural landscapes. Ras Al Khaimah's entertainment industry invites families to go hiking, take part in a sports festival, learn archery, build a raft or watch the habits of birds. Fujairah's entertainment is more urban: urban architecture and an archaeological museum. If you wish, you can go to the Al-Wurraya waterfalls or the thermal sulfur springs of Ain al-Ghamur, and also visit the Ain al-Madhab national park.
When to go. Like Egypt, people come to the UAE to relax at any time of the year, and the most comfortable and mild months are March, April, October and November. In winter (December-February) swimming is not very comfortable; the water temperature is about 20 degrees.
Cyprus, Ayia Napa
The most popular tourist area of Cyprus is very beautiful: fine white sand beaches and a piercing turquoise sea, and the slopes to the water are very comfortable and safe for children. However, the small but noisy Ayia Napa is considered a youth resort, so families with older children will feel more comfortable here. Although, towards the end of September, cheerful student groups leave the resort to return to the classrooms of educational institutions, and Ayia Napa takes on a very pious and respectable appearance. At this time, you can relax here calmly even with your kids.
The best beach in Ayia Napa is called Nissi Beach, sheltered from strong waves in a small lagoon near the Nissi Beach Resort. The beach has excellent infrastructure, while being located on the territory of a well-kept tropical park. The disadvantages of the beach include crowded conditions during the high season and algae washing ashore in July-August.
Sandy Bay Beach also has all the ingredients for a comfortable holiday with small children - clean water, fine sand, a flat bottom, a variety of water activities and protection from sharp gusts of wind. The uncrowded beaches of Makronissos and Landa have the same characteristics.
When to go. The beginning of summer (end of May-June) and the velvet season (September-October) are most preferable for holidays with children in Cyprus. In mid-summer, it will be too hot for kids here.
Put the words “children” and “recreation” into one sentence, and you will certainly think of a long strip of clean sand, washed by the calm blue waters of a warm and clear sea. Little ones really love spending hours on the beach, building sand castles, running in and out of the sea 10 times a minute, jumping over waves and enjoying a mix of freedom, sun and ice cream. It's time to find out the top 10 beaches that can give you a lot of fun, joy and pleasant memories that would be enough for a whole year ahead.
Cattolica, Emilia-Romagna, Italy
The beaches of the Adriatic coast of Italy have never been awarded the status of “best”, good ones - that’s all. However, recently the situation has begun to change. For example, cozy Cattolica is now considered one of the ideal options for families with children. A clear sea, a gentle entrance to the water and simply an innumerable amount of entertainment for children along the entire coast and in the city itself are direct proof of this.
Elafonisi, Crete, Greece
The ideal landscapes of this beach could well have appeared to you in a dream... Calm waters, fantastic sand, a miniature island opposite, which is so interesting to explore during the sultry lunch hours, as well as the gentle sun, the happy eyes of a child, and the next vacation, we bet that you will spend it in Crete.
Elafonisi
Coronado Island, San Diego, California
Not just a beach, but a whole “water world”, this ideal sandy coast near the Coronado Hotel in San Diego is perfect for families with children. Unlike all other beaches in San Diego, drinking alcohol is prohibited here. The nearest noisy and dangerous water sports, such as biking, are 15 miles down the coast. Don't think twice: run to the ferry and spend a perfect day on this beach with your kids.
Bophut and Chaweng, Koh Samui, Thailand
Thailand can boast of simply a myriad of beautiful beaches, so it is absolutely impossible to choose the best one here. But we'll try. Bophut Beach, 19 miles north of Chaweng, may well deserve this title, thanks to its perfect sand and gentle entrance to the water. But still, it is perhaps too quiet for children. But Chaweng, which offers its vacationers delicious eateries, entertainment of all kinds and a lot of kids from all over the world to play together, deserves the status of “the best beach for families with children.”
Calvi, Corsica, France
The long sandy beach of Calvi, which gradually descends to amazing azure waters, good infrastructure and a lot of cute towns around for afternoon excursions - this is what makes this beach ideal for families with children.
Palolem, Goa, India
Unlike other popular beaches in Goa, such as Benaulim, Colva, Calangute or Anjuna, the coast of Palolem is located in a small protected bay, thanks to which it is home to a calm and comfortable lagoon that has no analogues from Kerala to Mumbai itself.
Luxurious sand, developed infrastructure, as well as many hotels and restaurants that are designed specifically for family tourists are available.
Crandon Park Beach, Miami, USA
A huge, long sandy beach in the shape of a lagoon, calm waters, developed infrastructure and a lot of entertainment - for many years in a row, Miami has consistently remained in the top 10 best resorts for families with children.
St Georgios, Naxos island, Greece
Within walking distance from the miniature capital of Naxos, Chora, is the beach of St. George - one of the best in all of Greece. And its azure, crystal clear waters make this place ideal for families with children. Naxos, like all the Cyclades islands, has tons (maybe hundreds) of great beaches for kids of all ages - from babies to teenagers - but this one remains a favorite year after year.
Playa Norte, Isla Mujeres, Mexico
Tucked away from the harsh Caribbean winds, this beach offers perfectly calm seas for children of all ages. Isla Mujeres, located near the popular Mexican resort of Cancun, invites you to leave the noisy hotel complexes on the mainland to enjoy the purest white sand on this island of peace, the name of which is translated very elegantly - “island of women”.
