This year, Moscow was covered in heat that was unusual for our latitudes. And not for a week, but for 1.5-2 months (until the end of July), weather forecasters promise temperatures around +30 °C, and only rare rain showers... Where can city residents swim within the capital?

You can swim in the Moscow River within the city, but be careful and not everywhere. In the north-west, the river is not yet too polluted, and therefore in Rublev, Strogino, Serebryany Bor and Troitse-Lykovo there are equipped beaches where Muscovites traditionally swim and sunbathe. But as it passes through industrial areas, the Moscow River already accumulates a large supply of heavy metals, harmful organics and petroleum products, and therefore it is prohibited to dive into water on the central embankments and in the south-eastern part of the city.

The swimming season in the capital officially opened on June 1 and will be extended until September 1, the beaches are open from 9-00 to 21-00.

Akademika Vinogradova, building 12, and in the Beach Club beach complex on Leningradskoye Shosse, property 39, from June 24 of this year, swimming is temporarily prohibited due to inconsistency of water quality according to microbiological indicators.

Rublevsky beach in Myakininskaya floodplain– the cleanest and most environmentally friendly. Entrance to it is traditionally paid, which prevents marginal elements from entering the recreation area. You can sunbathe on the sand and on the lawn grass; there is accompanying infrastructure: toilets, changing cabins, showers, a first-aid post, fast food establishments, children's and sports grounds. Next door is a boat station where you can rent a boat, catamaran or water skis. You can get there on your own from the Krylatskoye, Molodezhnaya or Shchukinskaya metro stations, by bus or minibus.

Vacationers are attracted to Serebryany Bor by the aroma of pine trees, clean sand and an abundance of sports fields. Beach sections are numbered due to their large length coastline. Beach volleyball, ping-pong, and badminton players traditionally gather here; You can rent a boat, jet ski and even a speedboat. The beach area is also equipped with all the necessary infrastructure: cabins, benches, toilets, hammocks. The sandy bottom provides comfortable entry into the water.

Lake Meshcherskoye (another old Moscow beach area) can be reached from the Yugo-Zapadnaya metro station or from the Vostryakovo and Peredelkino railway platforms. The lake is small, so on hot days there are a lot of people near the water. Next to the beach there is a picnic area and sports grounds. The place is noisy and crowded, but, alas, these are the “charms” of a big city.

Lake Beloye is located in the village of Kosino, on the border with Moscow. You can get to it from the Vykhino metro station, then by any minibus or bus traveling through the village of Kosino. The second option is to walk from the Kosino railway station past the traffic police to the village of Kosino (about 1 km). The shore is sandy, you can sunbathe on the grass by spreading a towel. The depth of the lake is 23 meters, there are places where there are cold springs, so it is not recommended even for good swimmers to swim far.

For those who do not like outdoor recreation, there are outdoor swimming pools in Moscow, where you can swim in clean water and sunbathe while lying on a sun lounger or under a canopy. In addition, the water in the pools is heated to a comfortable temperature when it is cool outside.

The Luzhniki swimming pool is one of the oldest outdoor city swimming pools. To be more precise, there are two pools here: a sports pool and a beach pool. Spending the whole day in the aqua complex on weekdays will cost 1,200 rubles, on weekends – 1,500 rubles.

st. Tamanskaya, 2nd and 4th lines of Khoroshevsky Serebryany Bor

The forest area on the banks of the Moscow River boasts three separate beach areas. True, only two of them - beaches No. 2 and No. 3 - are allowed to swim. The local infrastructure cannot boast of integrity, but it still exists. For example, for 500 rubles per day you can rent a sun lounger, A for 300 rubles per hour, place your child in the safe hands of playground workers. It is generally accepted that Bor-2 is more suitable for family vacation, while Bor-3 - perfect place for youth. However, there is no big difference between the public and the range of services provided on both beaches. In both places, for a fee of 100 to 300 rubles per hour, you can play table tennis, checkers, chess, backgammon, badminton, beach volleyball and even billiards.

A bicycle is the fastest way to arrive in Serebryany Bor, because a car requires a special pass. There is also a trolleybus from the Oktyabrskoye Pole station. He has final stop next to the entrance to the recreational area. So, the beach itself. Quite wide, with a gentle descent into the water. There is a paid one, with sun loungers and a lounge. I usually stay in the free zone. There is a site with good sand, where tanned men play volleyball. There is a minimal beach bar. Mostly residents of nearby areas come here. Sunbathe and have a picnic right away. Usually the audience is quite intelligent. Unlike, for example, the beach in Pirogovo, they don’t turn on the speakers with their playlist, but peacefully scroll through the tablet, not forgetting to roll over and rub Lancaster cream on her friend’s back.

The water, by the way, is almost always clean in all samples. Because this is the upper reaches of the Moscow River. But be careful not to swim into the middle of the river: boats with water skiers periodically pass there.
