Among the numerous seas of Russia, the Sea of ​​Azov occupies a prominent place on the map of Russia. Holidays here, especially with small children, are comfortable. Since ancient times, the waterway from the Don and the Azov steppes to the Black Sea, Crimea and the Caucasus passed through the Sea of ​​Azov.

After the transformation of Sochi for the Olympics and the annexation of Crimea to Russia, the popularity of the famous resorts on the Azov coast faded a little.

The Sea of ​​Azov in the history of Russia

The smallest sea in Russia has played a significant role in its history since ancient times. It was a crossroads of trade routes from Asia to Europe. It is no coincidence that a city was founded at the mouth of the Don on the site of settlements that had already existed since the 10th century. In ancient times there existed here greek city Tanais. Then century after century replaced each other:

  • Romans;
  • Genoese;
  • Venetians;
  • Byzantines;
  • Tatar-Mongols;
  • Turks;
  • Russians.

The Russians reached the shores of the Sea of ​​Azov in 1696, defeating and expelling the Turks. It was here that the first Russian fleet appeared.

Climate of the Sea of ​​Azov

The Sea of ​​Azov is not only the smallest in Russia, but the shallowest. Its maximum depth is only 14 meters. In the month of June, when Black Sea coast The water in the Caucasus and Crimea is still cold, but on the Azov coast it is already quite comfortable to swim (24 degrees). In July and August, the water warms up to 26 degrees, although there are periods when the water temperature was 32 degrees (regions of Taganrog and Primorsk-Akhtarsk). Real tropics!

The climate of the Azov region is continental. There is little precipitation. Hot and dry air comes from the steppes of Tavria. Sea winds soften the summer heat and turn seaside towns to wonderful resorts.

Resorts of the Azov Sea

After the coup in Ukraine, only resorts located on Russian territory are available to Russians. There are many such resorts, some of them are not only places of relaxation, but also excellent places for treatment both in sanatoriums and “savages”.

But having formulated the requirements, and having a clear idea of ​​what, besides the sea, you would like to have at the resort, you can have a very good rest on the Azov coast.

Which resort to relax with a child?

Holidays with children impose certain requirements on the resort. These requirements include:

  • Transport accessibility;
  • Availability of housing with amenities and preferably with a kitchen;
  • Equipped beaches;
  • Beach activities for children;
  • Entertainment for children at the resort.

Yeysk possesses these qualities in full. There is an airport and railway. Private sector, hotels, guest houses offer many options. Numerous beaches of Yeisk have good beach infrastructure, which includes a variety of entertainment for children and adults.

The child is taken to the sea to improve his health. But short-term (10-15 days) stay in a hot climate often leads to the opposite effect. It is optimal to arrive at the beginning of summer and stay at sea for 2-3 months. Doctors think so.

In case of a short stay at sea with a child, you should carefully monitor the time he spends in the sun. To prevent sunstroke and burns, you should protect your head even in water, and use protective creams, or ensure you stay in the shade.

Yeisk is very green city. The cost of rental housing is pleasantly different from the prices of resorts in the Caucasus and Crimea.

The city has a lot of entertainment for children:

  • Waterpark "Nemo";
  • Dolphinarium;
  • “Crocodile Canyon;
  • Shark Reef Oceanarium;
  • Children's center "Bingo-Bingo";
  • Attractions in the park named after Poddubny.

From the point of view of recreation and entertainment infrastructure, Yeysk best resort Sea of ​​Azov.

The village of Golubitskaya is located just 8 kilometers from the Temryuk railway station. The beaches of the village are sandy or a mixture of sand and shells and have a gentle entrance to the sea. In the estuaries of the village you can see lotus fields. The largest water park and dolphinarium on the coast is located in Golubitskaya. For hotel guests at the water park, visiting it and the dolphinarium performances are free.

There are many gardens and vineyards in the village. Holidays here are relaxing and inexpensive.

The resorts of Taman, Dolzhanskaya village, Kuchugury, and Primorsko-Akhtarsk do not have a developed resort structure. These are places for a quiet family holiday by the beautiful sea. These places are sparsely populated and calm, but endless beaches, excellent ecology and the presence of attractions nearby make holidays here quite comfortable.

Therapeutic mud of the Azov coast

There are a lot of mud resorts in Russia. But if you look at the map of the Azov Sea coast, the number of mud springs on the Azov coast is the largest in Russia.

Therapeutic muds are well known:

  • Tizdar mud volcano, Tamanskaya village;
  • Lakes “Blue Balka”, village of Peresyp;

While relaxing at mud resorts, you should use the opportunity to take care of your health and combine relaxation with treatment. This can be done in medical institutions, and by the savage.

Russian resorts on the coast of the Sea of ​​Azov have recently found themselves undeservedly in the shadow of the more famous resorts of the Crimea and the Caucasus. But a vacation here, especially for a family, is still comfortable and the cost is low. This is a great opportunity to combine relaxation with therapeutic mud procedures without much effort and expense.

The shallowest sea in the world and the warmest sea in Ukraine

The Sea of ​​Azov - the Meotian Lake among the ancient Greeks, Karluk - among the Scythians, the Dark Blue Sea - among the Arabs, the Fish Sea - among the Tatar-Mongols, has been known since ancient times and does not lose popularity even now. Every year, tens of thousands of vacationers spend weekends and holidays on its coast - and this is only at domestic resorts.

The Sea of ​​Azov is the shallowest sea in the world's oceans and the warmest in Ukraine.

The maximum depth of the reservoir does not exceed 13.5 meters, and the average is about 7.4 meters, so the sea warms up quite quickly and the water temperature near the shore is already by mid-May often reaches mark +18°С. It is at this time that a full-fledged beach season starts at the resorts of the Azov Sea, which usually lasts almost until the end of September. At the height of summer, the surface layer of water has a temperature of +26...+28°C, and sometimes even higher than +30°C.

The natural features of Azov have made the reservoir popular among tourists. Relatively long holiday season - about five months, traditionally warm water, gentle and smooth descent into the sea - these are the main advantages of Azov recreation.

Some of them are popularly called children’s and “all-Union” health resorts in the old fashioned way, and Kirillovka has even been given the official status of “Resort of State Significance”.

Map of resorts and the Sea of ​​Azov on the map

This map shows basic resort towns on the Azov coast of Ukraine and Russia. For the most relevant resorts in Ukraine on click a link to detailed review with a description of the infrastructure, recreation features, photos, etc.

Sea of ​​Azov geographically and climatically

The Sea of ​​Azov in geography is a semi-enclosed sea of ​​the Atlantic basin and the most continental on the planet - in terms of distance from the ocean, located within two countries - Ukraine (territorially - Donetsk, Zaporozhye, Kherson regions, north-eastern coast Crimean peninsula) and Russia (Krasnodar Territory, Rostov Region).

In comparison with other seas, for example, the Black Sea (with which it is connected through the Kerch Strait - approx.), the Azov Sea is a rather small body of water: its maximum length is about 380 km, its width is about 200 km, and the total length of the coastline does not exceed 1500 km.

Most of the coast of the Azov Sea is flat, small shell beaches. The only exceptions are coastal hills volcanic origin, which can be seen in the southern part of the reservoir.

Climate of the Sea of ​​Azov is very strongly influenced by the vast steppe massifs that surround it on almost all sides, both within Ukraine and in the Ciscaucasia and Crimea - with their characteristic low amount of precipitation - an average of 300-500 mm per year.

Therefore, in the resorts of the Azov Sea, rain is a rare and short-term phenomenon, as is cloudiness - especially in summer time, which greatly pleases tourists and creates good conditions for a beach holiday.

In summer, local circulation of air masses is established on the coast in the direction from sea to land - during the day, and from land to sea - at night. These are the familiar breezes that soften even the extreme midday heat. That is why the usual summer air temperature for these latitudes is +28...+30°C and peak temperature up to +45°C on the shores of the Sea of ​​Azov is much easier and more comfortable to bear than on city streets.

Azov resorts boast high sun activity - for example, in Kirillovka the sunshine time is about 2320 hours per year, which exceeds this figure for the Crimean Yalta.

Coastal Features

The coast of the Azov Sea forms very bizarre shapes and has unusual boundaries. The braids that abound in Azov have formed many estuaries and smoother along the seashore.

On my own coastline flat and smooth, however, many protruding braids give it a rugged appearance.

In some places the steppes approach the sea directly, in some places the coast has steep clay slopes washed away by the sea, in some places there are marshy flat areas and, of course, in sparsely populated places you can find abundant thickets of reeds.

The forest areas practically do not border with seashore Therefore, the nature here is not as picturesque as, for example, in the Crimea, and at the height of summer it completely takes on the appearance of a sun-scorched steppe. Small plantings of trees are usually either artificial plantings or abundantly overgrown shrubs.

Webcams on the coast

Landscape in person beach area The Sea of ​​Azov can be seen using web cameras installed on the coast. For example, below is a webcam located on the Peresyp spit in the Zaporozhye region.

Fishing

As noted above, the Sea of ​​Azov is warm and shallow. It was these conditions that at one time provided him with a fairly active reproduction of flora and fauna. In terms of the number of plant and animal organisms, Azov was a world leader, and the fish productivity of the sea (the ratio of the total number of fish and the area of ​​the reservoir) was 40 times higher than the corresponding indicator of the Black Sea and more than 6 times higher than the Caspian Sea.

Until recently, the Sea of ​​Azov was considered an inexhaustible reservoir for fishing - industrial, amateur, and sport. Gobies, flounder, beluga, sturgeon, thorn, stellate sturgeon, ram, herring - all this was far from a complete list of gifts of the deep sea.

But as a result of consumerism towards the sea, the population of many fish species has decreased, and some have even joined the list of endangered species. so despite the good natural conditions Azov today is systematically losing its glory as the most “fishy” sea.

Today, in the Kirillovka region, only the Azov goby or, in some cases, sawn gas remains the subject of real fishing.

Recreational effect and health improvement

The coast of the Sea of ​​Azov is not only a popular holiday destination, but also an effective aeroion health resort, working through a combination of healing factors created by nature itself.

The air near Azov is a kind of cocktail that is saturated iodine, bromine, minerals and trace elements– due to active evaporation of water from the surface of the sea and estuaries and phytoncides brought by winds from the steppe massifs.

Provided that there are no industrial enterprises or busy highways in the area, such a mixture can have a general healing effect and alleviate conditions with acute respiratory viral infections, chronic diseases of the upper respiratory tract and allergic reactions.

Azovskaya sea ​​water its composition is also unique in many respects. It contains over 90 chemical elements that have a beneficial effect on the human body. In the bottom layer there is deposits of healing sulfide silt mud formed during the collapse of marine flora and fauna. Thanks to the shallow depth of Azov, even slight waves at sea turn the water into a mud suspension, and sea ​​bathing– as a health procedure indicated for diseases of the skin, musculoskeletal system, cardiovascular and nervous systems.

By the way, there is also useless, and often harmful to health, dirt in the sea - there is plenty of it off the coast of industrial cities and ports.

Useful mud is found not only in the sea, but also in estuaries- salty bays, which are available in sufficient quantities in the Azov basin.

The mud of the estuaries is the basis for the functioning of balneological hospitals located in Kirillovka, Berdyansk and other resorts on the Sea of ​​Azov - both in Ukraine and in Russia. In these establishments, vacationers, or rather patients, can be offered treatment that can improve metabolism, correct and stabilize the state of the peripheral nervous system, alleviate asthma and chronic respiratory diseases, after injuries and exacerbations of musculoskeletal diseases, and get rid of gynecological and urological problems.

Holidays with children on the Azov Sea

Children's resort - this is how almost every Azov region can be characterized. On the coast of the Azov Sea, the main conditions for the implementation of a proper holiday with children are met:

Mild climate, lack of acclimatization

The weather at the Azov resorts means sunny days, a sea breeze that softens the summer heat and a breeze that constantly brings new portions of phytoncides from the steppes and iodine and bromine ions from the sea to the coast.

Unlike a trip to Mediterranean coast and the same South Coast, those who come to Azov actually do not undergo a period of acclimatization, unless, of course, they are residents of the far north. That is why holidays on the Azov Sea at resorts far from industry can be useful for children of almost any age, even newborns.

Warm water, smooth descent into the sea

As mentioned above, Azov is a shallow sea, so the sea water has a comfortable temperature for swimming already in May, and in the summer the water is “like fresh milk,” which is very suitable for little ones sitting in the sea for hours. In addition, most Azov resorts have a sandy coastal strip, which does not injure children’s feet, and the deepening of the sea is gradual - in some places it is more dynamic, in others it is less, but without underwater holes and sharp cliffs.

Common foods

An important aspect for those who take children on vacation and make sure that the vacation goes without unpleasant reactions to unfamiliar food that is not specific to our latitudes. Plus - here you can buy seasonal vegetables and fruits grown in Azov villages, the use of which can replenish children’s vitamin reserves and improve immunity.

Pricing policy of Azov resorts

It is well known that in most Azov resorts you can find almost any number– from economy option without amenities to premium or VIP class housing, accordingly, the price of a vacation may differ significantly.

In addition, the cost of the corresponding rooms can be quite varies depending on region. The Azov coast is characterized by a division into inexpensive and expensive resorts.

The main factors for such pricing are popularity, “promotion” of recreation, infrastructure development, availability of entertainment facilities and convenience of transfer.

"Inexpensive" vacation

Inexpensive holiday on the Sea of ​​Azov within Ukraine, you can, for example, in Stepanovka Pervaya, Primorsk, Primorsky Posad - without any special requests for organizing leisure time.

These resorts are purely beachy and are practically devoid of infrastructure and entertainment.

Mid-price holidays

Most popular resort Ukrainian Azov region - Kyrylivka, which has all the conditions so that tourists do not get bored - large water park, dolphinarium, equestrian theatre, amusement park, a sufficient number of night clubs, discos, cafes.

Since high demand for vacation leads to rising prices, Kirillovka in this regard has been leading among the Ukrainian resorts of the Azov Sea for many years.

Melekino

The resort village 35 kilometers from Mariupol is also questionable in terms of the ecological cleanliness of the coast, as it is located close to the city and industrial giants.

The advantages of Melekino include the proximity of housing to the beaches.

Sedovo

The village is located 55 kilometers from Mariupol on Krivoy Spit. Small in area, it has about thirty boarding houses, recreation centers and hotels and has a reputation as a relatively clean region, due to its remoteness from major cities and industrial facilities.

Most vacation rentals in Sedovo are located 20-100 meters from the sea.

The main feature of the resort is its rather narrow beaches.

Shchelkino and Cape Kazantip

The city on the northeastern coast of Crimea, built to service a never-launched nuclear power plant, has the reputation of a youth party resort.

Republic KaZantip or Republic Z is an electronic music festival that recently took place on the territory of an unfinished nuclear reactor, the main attraction of the region.

In addition to non-stop partygoers, Cape Kazantip was a haven for windsurfers who took part in the annual competition for the Russian Funboard Association (RFA) Federation Cup.

Resorts on the Russian coast

And now we will briefly but in detail talk about the resorts located on Russian coast Sea of ​​Azov.

Taganrog

Resort town in Rostov region, founded by Peter the Great in 1698, is included in the list of historical cities of Russia.

Taganrog – seaport and the industrial center of southern Russia with large metallurgical and engineering production.

There is virtually no point in talking about any environmental friendliness of the resort.

First of all, tourists here may be interested in the well-developed infrastructure, historical attractions and cultural sites.

Yeysk

City on the Sea of ​​Azov in Krasnodar region located between the Taganrog Bay and the Yeisk Estuary, at the base of the Yeisk Spit.

Unlike Taganrog, the city does not have very large industrial facilities, but there are plenty of attractions and entertainment.

The most popular among tourists is Yeisk Spit, where the largest beaches, sanatoriums, recreation centers, cafes and restaurants are located.

No less popular is the Merchant District, which attracts tourists with its ancient architecture and the Taganrog embankment, which is considered the heart of the resort.

Yeisk has an active port and a railway, which add convenience in terms of transfer, but negatively affect the ecological state of recreation.

Primorsko-Akhtarsk

The resort is located on Akhtarsky Bay in the northwestern part of the Krasnodar Territory.

Among the listed Russian recreations, Primorsko-Akhtarsk can be called the most environmentally friendly.

The main industrial load here is taken on by canning mini-fish factories; there are no large industrial facilities at the resort, and railway station is unlikely to cause too much damage to the purity of air and water.

The disadvantages of recreation include a rather modest supply of housing at the resort and insufficiently developed infrastructure.

Taman Peninsula

Krasnodar resort region is unique not only because it is washed by two seas - the Azov and Black seas, but also presence of volcanoes, spewing dirt - active, extinct and dormant.

The largest and most famous among them are the Akhtanizovskaya and Karabetov hills and the Hephaestus volcano.

The pearl of Taman is the local “Switzerland”, a protected area with wild vegetation, which is very suitable for lovers of a secluded holiday in the lap of nature.
