People used the healing mud of Lake Saki back in the Middle Ages. There were legends about her. One of them tells about a Chumak who came from Ukraine to buy salt, which was mined here. His oxen got stuck in the lake mud, and the Chumak trampled in it with his sore feet all night, trying to pull out the loaded cart. The chumak returned home and suddenly felt that the old pain in his legs, which had tormented him for many years, had disappeared, and he had become completely healthy...
Since ancient times, table salt has been mined in Lake Saki, as well as in Lake Sasyk. From here, along dusty roads of many miles, the Chumaks delivered it to Kyiv, Chernigov, Poltava and other cities of Ukraine, to many remote Russian provinces. In the summer, the Saki Bromine Plant produced its first product - 23 tons of bromine. Nowadays it is a large chemical enterprise, its products number dozens of names. The plant has been repurposed to produce environmentally friendly products. Lake Saki is used not only as a source of raw materials for a chemical plant, but also for medicinal purposes. It is shallow, about five kilometers long, up to three kilometers wide. Lake Saki is divided into two parts by an artificial dam. The western basin serves as a raw material base for a chemical plant, while the eastern basin, which is smaller in size, is used by the sanatoriums of the Saki resort, as well as other health resorts and medical institutions in Crimea.
The miraculous Saki mud and other resort factors are used in the Poltava sanatorium, a well-known specialized sanatorium named after. Academician N.N. Burdenko and others. The latter is equipped with modern electronic diagnostic and therapeutic equipment; all the resources of the resort are put to the service of health here - the coastal-steppe climate, therapeutic mud and brine, mineral and sea water. The sanatorium has water and mud baths, a swimming pool for underwater massage, and well-equipped treatment rooms. There are many more service staff here than patients. Treatment is carried out using specially developed methods, the author of many of them is a prominent specialist, Doctor of Medical Sciences N.V. Molskaya.
There are no health resorts of this type anymore either in the CIS countries or in Europe. The city is also concerned about those in wheelchairs. Without outside help, patients can get to a cafe, bar, hairdresser, market, pharmacy and even to a temple - everywhere there are convenient entrances and ramps for wheelchairs. Therapeutic mud is also available in other lakes of the Saki region (Sasyk-Sivash, Kyzyl-Yar). Doctors consider mineral water sources to be a wonderful help. The most widely used is the slightly alkaline Crimean Mineral water, especially for the treatment of diseases of the digestive system and metabolic disorders. Other sources are used for baths and have limited use so far. In the city's sanatoriums and resort clinics, patients with gynecological diseases, lesions of the musculoskeletal system of non-tuberculosis origin, nervous system, etc. are treated.

Nature and climate of Saki
The fame of Saka as a balneological resort was brought by the salt lake, which stretches next to it for five kilometers. The lake appeared on the site of a river that was flooded by the Black Sea five thousand years ago. Layers of clay, pebbles, silt and salt began to be deposited at its bottom. The resulting mixture, which has healing properties, became healing mud. Its unique composition is superior in some respects to the mud of the Israeli Dead Sea.
Table salt from the Saki lakes began to be used as food - it was here that the famous Chumatsky Highway ran, along which the Cossacks once went to the Crimea for “white gold”.
There are mineral springs in the area. Their slightly alkaline water, known by the brand " Crimean mineral", is not inferior in properties to the mineral waters of Essentuki and Truskavets.
Another healing natural resource that makes holidays in Saki attractive is the climate. Saki, located 5 km from the sea, is located in the coastal-steppe climate zone. Summers here are hot (July temperature +23.3°C), and winters are mild (average February temperature -1°C). The average temperature for the year is +11.2°C with a relative humidity of 77%. The sky over Saki is greedy for precipitation, but generous with the sun: it shines over the area for about 2,500 hours a year. The swimming season begins in the first days of June and lasts until the beginning of October. During this period the water warms up to +17°C.
In Saki there is one of the most beautiful places in Crimea- City Park . Thirty sculptural compositions are located in the man-made arboretum in the shade of eighty species of shrubs and trees.
The combination of thermal mineral springs, a salt lake with silt mud, an arboretum and the sea makes the climate of Sak beneficial for humans. While in Saki, be sure to visit:

History of Sak
There are several versions about the origin of the name " Saki" According to one of them, the city inherited the Persian name of the Scythians who inhabited it in ancient times: the Persians called the Scythians “Sakas”. The second version is tied to the healing properties of Lake Saki - translated from Turkic “saki” means “mud”, and “sak” means “strength, fortress”.
The exact time of the appearance of the first settlement on the site of the city of Saki has not been established. About 25 centuries ago, the coast of Crimea began to be actively populated by Greek colonists, and it is likely that the history of Sak began at that time. At the beginning of our era, the village was well known to the Romans: this is evidenced by many ancient coins found during excavations in the vicinity of Saki.
In the Middle Ages, Saki was a small village, the property of the rich Crimean Mansur family and was part of the Crimean Khanate. Life in the village went smoothly and repeated the historical fate of the entire Crimea, passing from hand to hand from Tatars to Genoese and Turks, from Turks to Russia.
They started talking loudly about Saki during the Crimean War. Not far from the village, between lakes Kyzyl-Yar and Saki, a huge coalition army landed. In February 1855, Russian army forces were stationed near the village, preparing under the command of General S.A. Khrulev to storm Evpatoria. During the fighting, the village of Saki was destroyed.
The end of the Crimean War caused the emigration of Crimean Tatars from Sakha. The deserted village was rebuilt slowly and with difficulty. In 1858, families from the Poltava province moved to it, and later the Greeks of Constantinople appeared.
The mud of Lake Saki began to be used for medicinal purposes back in the Middle Ages. They noticed the healing properties of the local silt, according to legend, thanks to one Chumakov who came to these places for salt. His overloaded oxen got stuck in the coastal mud, and the chumak toiled with them until the morning, trampling in the mud with his sore feet. Returning home, he suddenly felt that the old pain had left his legs...
In 1827, district doctor S.N. Auger began to officially practice in Saki mud therapy. He was prompted to this decision by the results of research by Russian scientists into the chemical composition of Saki mud, which discovered unique medicinal properties. 1827 is considered the year of birth of the Saki resort.
By the end of the 19th century, the village began to flourish: hospitals and hotels were built, and sanatoriums were opened. Local mud helps Tsarevich Alexei, heir to the Russian throne, get rid of his illness. Notable people are starting to come here. Remember: “and the princes are in the mud”?
Young Soviet Russia took up “sanatorium” issues only in the early 30s of the last century. The healing properties of Saki mud were appreciated so highly that since 1938, the resort's health resorts switched to year-round treatment.
During the Great Patriotic War, most of the rest houses and sanatoriums in Saki were destroyed. After the victory, they were among the first to be restored.
The infrastructure of today's resort health resorts can be the envy of many European resorts. And the amazing restorative properties of Saki mud continue to attract tourists from all over the world. You can diversify your holiday in Saki with excursions to local attractions:
