Where to relax on the sand? Russians who preferred foreign seas are once again turning their attention to the coast of the Krasnodar Territory. By the way, there are two coasts - the Black Sea and the Azov Sea. Which one to choose?

• The less salty and shallower Sea of ​​Azov warms up already at the end of May. Almost all the beaches of the Azov region are sandy. Read on for a quick overview of coastal cities and towns.
• Black Sea sea water is healing, iodized. It is not for nothing that the largest Russian resorts were built here. What is the coastline of our main Black Sea resorts: Anapa, Gelendzhik and Sochi - sand or pebbles?
• We talked about the sandy beaches of the Crimean Black Sea coast in a previous article.

Azov coast of Krasnodar region

Give me a point on the map and... I'll go there on vacation. It is advisable to eat fruits and fresh seafood dishes, and lie on the sand. If you are traveling with children, you should choose a calm sea. My husband needs entertainment: fishing or windsurfing. All this can be found on the Azov coast of the Krasnodar Territory.

Some interesting facts about the Sea of ​​Azov. This is the shallowest sea in the World Ocean - depth 7-14 m. The Sea of ​​Azov is 10 times smaller than the Black Sea.

More than 20 rivers flow into the sea, in particular such large ones as the Don and Kuban. Due to the influx of river waters and the distance from the Atlantic Ocean, the sea salinity is approximately three times lower than the oceanic one. In summer, the water warms up to +24-+25°C, off the coast - even up to +30°C.

The Sea of ​​Azov is one of the most productive bodies of water in the world. It is home to more than 100 species of fish: freshwater, marine and “mixed”. It even has its own shark - katrana. Otherwise, it is called a sea dog - it is no more than 1 m in length. It is absolutely safe for people, unless you touch the spines on its fins. We can say that the Sea of ​​Azov is a godsend for fishermen.

The water in the Sea of ​​Azov warms up quickly, and the season begins at the end of May and ends in the second half of September. Basically, all the beaches have sand and small shells, the sea near the shore is shallow. At shallow depths the bottom is sandy, at greater depths it is muddy or muddy-sandy.

Let's start with quiet places, without entertainment. The small villages of Shabelskoye and Glafirovka are sandy and shell coastlines. The seven-kilometer Glafirovskaya Spit separates the Taganrog Bay from the Yeisk Estuary.

Primorsko-Akhtarsk– a resort town of Kuban with a very well-developed infrastructure for recreation. Akhtar-Bakhtar was the name of the Turkish fortress that was here once. At the market you will find excellent fresh fish and a lot of inexpensive fruit. By the way, the fish is smoked here. Do you like fishing yourself? The Achuevskaya Spit or the Palchikovsky Estuary are waiting for you.

You can come here by train to the city of Timashevsk, or to the villages of Kanevskaya or Bryukhovetskaya, and then by taxi or bus. The area is famous for its mineral waters, healing mud and... winds for kiting and windsurfing. In addition to wild beaches, there are three well-maintained city beaches - all sandy or small pebbles. Basically, everywhere the depth of the sea increases gradually, the bottom is small pebbles.

There are three major airports in the region - Anapa Vityazevo, Krasnodar Pashkovsky and Sochi (Adler). Developed railway communication, there are minibuses and buses.

The beaches of the Yeisk region are sandy and shell-like. there are freshwater lakes, estuaries and sand spits. The main cities and towns: the city of Yeisk (quite crowded), the village of Dolzhanskaya, the village of Kamyshevatskaya, the village of Yasenskaya Pereprava.

Yeisk- a large green resort town on the Azov coast. With all the ensuing consequences. There is entertainment for both adults and children: parks, an aquarium, and various attractions. Since Soviet times, Yeysk has been known as a health resort. Due to the healing silt mud, sometimes the water can be cloudy. There are several beaches in Yeysk: the central city (sandy), city children's (sand with shell), Kamenka (sand with medium-sized stones), "goat" (children's sand) and the beaches of the Yeisk estuary with pebbles and sand with shells. All beaches are free.

Stanitsa Dolzhanskaya– the coast is secluded, but it’s a long walk. On one side of the Dolzhanskaya Spit there is calm, on the other there are winds, on the edge of the spit there are dangerous whirlpools.

Stanitsa Kamyshevatskaya- a place for family recreation.

Yasenskaya The crossing is famous for the Yasenmai kite surfing festival held here in May. There is no resort infrastructure here, so the cost of living is the lowest on the Azov coast. The beach is shell rock, the bottom is muddy - so the water is cloudy.

What should you ask your host when you book rental accommodation in a city or town? How far is it to walk to the sea (or estuary). Will there be fresh fish or milk at the market, or is it better to go to another village for groceries? If you are with children, just in case, ask if there is a nudist beach nearby.

From Temryuk to the Kerch Strait (Crimea) – 100 km of sandy beaches of the Azov coast.

Temryuk– the largest city of the Taman Peninsula – is located an hour’s drive from Anapa airport.

The main fans of sandy beaches are parents with children and representatives of the “golden” age – those who find it difficult to walk on pebbles. The best beaches for them are in the area Anapa. From the village Blagoveshchenskaya before Vityazevo stretches for many kilometers of sandy strip.

Independent tourists should undoubtedly be attracted by wild beaches Bugaz Spit And Veselovki– this is the highlight of the Black Sea coast.

Black Sea coast of Krasnodar region

The Black Sea coast of the Krasnodar Territory stretches from the Taman Peninsula (Kerch Strait) to Abkhazia. If you look at the map from top to bottom, it is 50 km of sand spit to Anapa itself. Not far from Anapa, the Caucasus Range begins, the rocks of which fall into the Black Sea, turning into pebbles. Therefore, sandy beaches alternate with pebble-sand ones, and the coastal strip is even periodically interrupted by rock falls.

The sands of the coast of the Krasnodar region were brought by the Kuban River, now only the Kiziltash estuary remains. Sea sand is considered medicinal; upon contact with the skin, carbon dioxide is formed, which has a beneficial effect on the body. If you relax on wild beaches, you will have the opportunity to take sand baths. The sands in Taman are red with an admixture of quartz, in Dzhemet, Vityazevo and Blagoveshchenskaya they are yellow shell sands, in Anapa they are light gray. Further along the coast the beaches are no longer sandy.

Main beach of the city Gelendzhik at Cape Tonkiy it stretches for 1.5 km. The sand here is imported mixed with small pebbles. The depth of the sea increases gradually, suitable for not very small children. The beach is free and well-maintained, but during the season it is quite crowded. The boarding house "Cape Tonkiy" has another small beach with sand, there are a little less people here. A narrow pebble-sand strip of shore stretches from the Blue Wave sanatorium to the hydrobase. The sea here is shallow, the bottom of fine sand is perfect for small children. The beach is poorly maintained; vacationers spread rugs right under the trees on the embankment.

Under Tuapse beaches in villages are called sandy Lermontovo(Golden Sands) and Novomikhailovsky(near the Dubrava boarding house and Orlyonok beach). But to get to them you either have to take a minibus or cross the highway. The clear, shallow sea with fine sand may be worth it.

The main advantage is a large length, due to which there is plenty of free space for children to play actively, and vacationers do not huddle close to each other. Flaw– lack of mass cultural entertainment. The best way to get to this fabulous corner is by car. Hiking with toddlers can be challenging.

Developed beaches with good equipment and various children's attractions belong to hotels. There is a minibus from the center of the village that will take the whole family there. The descent into the sea does not begin with a sharp cliff, so children will feel comfortable and safe there. Well-maintained beaches of hotel complexes compete with pristine beaches, but are not always affordable for vacationers.

The presence of all types of tourist organizations, entertainment programs, rental of beach equipment and equipment, changing rooms, playgrounds, showers is especially attractive for families of vacationers, as a result - a high density of people in the water and on the shore. The gradual descent to the sea attracts tourists with children. There are many options for getting there: from walking to public transport. Main disadvantages- crowded, garbage on the shore and not always clean sea.

The Black Sea beaches of the Krasnodar Territory are relatively clean; tourists with children are offered a wide range of places to spend their holidays on the seashore. Each corner has certain pros and cons. You will have to set your priorities yourself.

The best beaches in the Krasnodar Territory for families with children on the Sea of ​​Azov

The relatively shallow Sea of ​​Azov can be imagined as the younger brother of the Black Sea, competing with the older one. It warms up faster and has a larger number of sand and shell beaches, attracting family men with children.

The green resort town of Yeysk is always happy to accommodate those who want to relax actively, fun and usefully (annual windsurfing competitions are held on Yeisk Spit). During the holidays, parents can keep their energetic child busy with training at the yacht club. Many guest houses, mini-hotels, and recreation centers will warmly welcome and accommodate people of any age.
Yeysk received the “green” status thanks to a long park alley connecting three parks into one street with various attractions, cafes and playgrounds. On the Taganrog embankment there is an oceanarium, a dolphinarium, a crocodile and a touching zoo and an outdoor water park.
During the season, the beach area is oversaturated with people, so garbage collection services are not always able to remove it.
All city beaches are free and equipped. The muddy bottom makes the water cloudy, but increases its healing properties. Since Soviet times, the city has been considered the most popular resort on the Azov Sea for children's holidays.

1. 1. Stanitsa Dolzhanskaya
      The Azov beaches of the Krasnodar Territory can offer an economical option for a family vacation. Stanitsa Dolzhanskaya, Yeisk district, a natural reserve of regional significance, invites travelers to spend a summer weekend on the Dolgaya spit with a shell-sandy coast. The spit is washed by the Taganrog Bay and the Sea of ​​Azov, the descent into the water is gentle, the depth gain is insignificant, and in calm conditions the water is clean and transparent.
      Unfortunately, due to the status of a nature reserve, resort services are poorly developed and are well represented only in the territories of a few recreation centers. There are practically no special entertainments for young children; it will be interesting for fans of fishing and wind kite surfing. This type of recreation can be classified as wild. There are numerous campsites on the spit with a simplified range of services: showers, toilets, catering, rental of jet skis, motorcycles, boat rides, shady gazebos.
   2. Primorsko-Akhtarsk
      A developed tourism organization, interesting attractions, mineral water springs, healing mud, a variety of fresh fish and fruits will delight the guests of Primorsko-Akhtarsk. A good sandy beach with a range of services will make your leisure time pleasant and comfortable. Getting here with your own transport is not difficult. Persons without a personal car can travel by train to Timashevsk, then transfer to a bus or taxi.
      
   3. Volna and Veselovka
      The beaches of the Krasnodar region for families with children can be proud of the amazing sunsets on the Taman Peninsula. The villages of Volna and Veselovka have several sandy beaches. The infrastructure is adequately developed only in the territories of children's camps, which have chosen the area due to its golden sand, warm clean sea, and convenient safe swimming for minors. The impressive views of the surrounding area invite you to spend several days in a tent. Disadvantages can also be household garbage, which unscrupulous vacationers leave behind after departure.
   4. Stanitsa Golubitskaya
      The village of Golubitskaya, located close to Temryuk, has long become a popular holiday destination, both among active youth and among family people. The pricing policy surprises with its democratic nature. Well-groomed beaches and well-developed service will delight guests. The regular flow of public transport from Temryuk will not keep you waiting. Naturally, a particularly attractive area attracts a large number of vacationers, so you shouldn’t dream of a secluded vacation, but exciting, fun communication is guaranteed.
   5. Glafirovka and Shabelskoe

Review of Adler beaches where there is sand, clear sea and everything for a holiday with a child
Where is the best place to relax with children on the Sea of ​​Azov in Russia?

Excellent rocky beaches with small pebbles, pleasant for the feet, can be found in almost all resorts of Sochi: Lazarevskoye, Adler, Khosta, Central. The entrance to the water on these beaches varies, but in the most popular places for recreation, as a rule, there are no large stones with sharp edges that can injure your feet.

Some of the resorts belonging to Gelendzhik are also known for their rocky beaches. Thus, pebble beaches predominate in the villages of Arkhipo-Osipovka and Divnomorskoye. The beaches on Tonky Mys, in the Blue Wave sanatorium, and the Chernomorets and Caucasus boarding houses are also strewn with pebbles and a small amount of sand. The quiet village of Dzhanhot, located near Gelendzhik, also boasts a fairly clean rocky beach.

In the Tuapse region, pebble lovers are better off in the villages of Novomikhailovsky or Dzhubga. In Lermontovo, the beaches are strewn with pebbles mixed with sand, and in Olginka - with small washed pebbles.

You can find rocky beaches near Anapa. For example, the beaches “Vysokiy Bereg” and “Malaya Bukhta” are strewn with stones and large pebbles. In some places, entering the sea is quite dangerous, especially in wild areas.

Those who like to relax more on pebble beaches can also go to the Black Sea coast in Abkhazia.

Sandy beaches on the Black Sea

A good sandy beach is located in the city of Gelendzhik. Its length reaches 500 meters and width 30 meters. There are canopies, changing rooms and showers, and a variety of beach equipment is rented. The entrance to the sea on the central beach of Gelendzhik is without sharp holes, but the depth increases quite quickly.

Many sandy beaches are located in Anapa and nearby. Dzhemete Beach, running along Pionersky Prospekt, is strewn with fine, pleasant sand and has a smooth entrance to the sea, so it is a good place for elderly people or families to relax there.

The only negative is that during the peak season there are a lot of people, and the sea in the coastal area at the end of summer often looks untidy due to the large number of people.

An excellent sandy beach is also located on the territory of the Orlyonok children's camp in the Tuapse region and the adjacent campsites. There is no promenade or much entertainment, but the sea is often very clean even in high season. When entering the water, the depth increases very slowly.

In Ukraine also, most beaches are sandy. For lovers of fine sand, it is best to relax in Yalta, Evpatoria, Feodosia or Sevastopol.

Sandy beaches are most loved by vacationers, in comparison with pebble or other types. The sandy beaches are ideal for families with children and for those learning to swim. A clean bottom and soft sand – what else do you need for a wonderful holiday by the water? Russia has many excellent fine sandy beaches.

Beaches of the Black Sea

Crimea is so loved by many vacationers precisely for its excellent sandy beaches. Clean water and a bottom without sharp stones are another reason why your holiday in Crimea will be very comfortable.

The beaches of Donuzlav are considered the best. Sand protects the coastline from all kinds of damage, such as erosion and faults, therefore the integrity of these beaches is protected by law: it is prohibited to take sand from there for any purpose. The beaches of Donuzlav start from the village of Mirny and stretch towards Evpatoria on one side, and on the other to the Baikal Spit. Settlements that are located on the gentle beaches of Donuzlav: Chernomorskoye, Olenevka, Zaozernoye, Popovka, Novo-Fedorovka, Shtormovoye, Mezhvodnoye, and Cape Tarkhankut is also located on this territory. The beaches of Kalamitsky Bay are considered the best for families with children, as the water warms up quickly and they are quite shallow.

If you prefer a beach holiday with a tent, then go to the villages of Olenevka or Mezhvodnoye. But remember that these are places for those who prefer green tourism. People keep the places where they set up camp clean.

Sandy beaches in the Krasnodar Territory are located in the area of ​​Anapa. The sand is so very beautiful, golden and fine, and also very clean. The beaches in Dzhemete are also an excellent option for families with children, since the bottom there is quite flat. The word “dzhemete” itself means “golden sands”.

Caspian, Azov and Baltic seas

The Sea of ​​Azov is very shallow, and its entire coastline is sandy. This sea is also very warm.

The Caspian Sea is also famous for its sandy beaches. The best sandy beaches are located in the Volga delta, where Astrakhan stands. There are often thermal springs near the beaches.

A very beautiful beach is located on the Baltic Sea - this is the Curonian Spit in Kaliningrad. The beach is very wide and the sand is fine and light. This splendor is surrounded by pine forests. But the swimming season here does not last long.

Lake beaches

Sandy beaches are also typical for lakes, where some people prefer relaxation to the sea. The most famous lake in Russia is Baikal. The most beautiful Baikal dunes, long wide beaches, clean water... The only negative is that the water in Baikal is quite cold, the lake does not warm up for a pleasant swim every year.

Lake Onega in Karelia has very beautiful sandy beaches. They are small, but occur all the time.

Seliger - this place has become very popular as a tourist area. There are many beaches around the lake. There are both budget and luxury accommodation options.

I don't like pebble beaches, so I always opt for sandy beaches. Is our Black Sea not only has a large selection of hotels and attractions, but also a huge selection of beaches. Here anyone can find a beach to suit their taste. All that remains is to find out where the beaches on the Black Sea are rocky and where they are sandy.

Where are the rocky beaches on the Black Sea

Most famous resorts have pebble beaches. For example:

• Lazarevskoe;
• Kabardinka;
• Dzhubga;
• Resorts of Crimea;
• Resorts of Abkhazia.

I can't swim on pebble beaches, but many people choose them for several reasons. Pros of pebble beaches:

• cleanliness and transparency of water;
• stones and pebbles do not stick to the body like sand;
• better visibility underwater.

But pebble and rocky beaches have not only advantages. Minuses:

• sharp stones;
• risk of cutting your feet;
• stones and pebbles become very hot in the sun;
• the need to wear special slippers for swimming.

Not everyone wears special slippers for swimming. For some, pebbles are a great foot massager. But I still remember how the wave threw me right onto the rocks. It ended badly. My legs were covered in bruises and cuts. And I'm not the only one who has encountered this.

Where are the sandy beaches on the Black Sea

On Black Sea You can easily find sandy shores. Most of the sandy beaches are located in Anapa. You can find a good sandy beach in Gelendzhik. It is small (about 500 meters in length), but without pebbles. The sand also gets very hot in the middle of the day, but it is easier to run on it without shoes. Try running without shoes on pebbles and stones. Sandy beaches have their downsides. The disadvantages include the following:

• sand sticks to wet skin, especially sunscreen;
• the water is not so clear, as the sand is constantly agitated by people swimming in the sea;
• when there is wind, sand will fly into your eyes;
• algae grows on beaches where there is sand, not pebbles.

Sandy beaches are very good if you are going on holiday with a child. Children will be more comfortable swimming. Sand is safer for children. The child will not fall on the stones, so the risk of injury is greatly reduced. This is also a great beach for older people.. On such beaches, entry into the water is smoother. If you are going to a sandy beach, then you do not need to take special swimming shoes with you.

There are a huge number of beaches on the Black Sea. And you can always choose the beach that will be the most convenient and acceptable for you.
