Long before the start of the summer holiday season, many tourists are concerned about choosing vacation spots in 2016. It is complicated by uncertain economic and currency situations. For these reasons, it is worth paying attention to the opportunity to spend your holidays in Crimea.

For those who like to relax by the sea, the beaches of Sudak are perfect.

They are known for their shallow coastline, which makes it a comfortable holiday for families with small children.

This small resort town has a wide selection of beaches, all of which are free to access. This will allow you to save a lot while enjoying sea ​​water. Tourists looking for a more advanced service will also be able to find a suitable place for themselves. Paid entry to such beaches is suitable for city guests who prefer a more free environment. Many hotels located by the sea have their own sections of coastline intended for guests. Such beaches combine the absence of the need to pay for their visit and a smaller number of vacationers.

Features of Sudak beaches

The main feature of Sudak beaches is the combination of shale sand and quartz on them. It gives them special color, by which you can determine the geographical location of the coast even in a photograph.

Mostly the seashore in Sudak is sandy, but there are also areas with pebbles.

Sudak Bay is “sandwiched” between Cape Alchak and Fortress Mountain.

The length of city beaches is slightly less than 2.5 km.

Thanks to the shallow depth, the water here warms up faster, allowing the swimming season to open earlier. A nearby mountain protects the water off the coast from the winds, resulting in big waves They are very rare in the bay. Thanks to this, you can let small children go to sea without fear for them.

Not far from the resort itself you can also find wild beaches, where the density of vacationers is significantly lower, or even empty.

The local mountain landscape forms an interesting combination with the coastal zone.

Those who like to relax in comfort will be pleased with the opportunity to get a sun lounger or sit under an umbrella, protecting themselves from the scorching rays of the sun.

Tourists who prefer a more active pastime will enjoy all the main beach activities, including the opportunity to engage in even water sports.

Both public and paid recreational areas are equipped with such necessary things like showers, toilets and changing rooms. And if city guests want to refresh themselves, there are a large number of nearby cafes and shops at their service.

Beaches of Sudak - what's in the news?

The main thing that currently worries tourists is the situation with the energy supply of the entire peninsula. Now there are significant restrictions, including in Sudak. But there is also a positive aspect. There are still more than six months until the holiday season, during which time it will be possible to restore electricity. For this reason, tourists do not have to worry about their future vacation.

Even under the current restrictions, all necessary institutions (banks, pharmacies, grocery stores) are operating.

The local tourism industry is already preparing to welcome a large number of visitors to next year. The city's businesses have invested in updating the infrastructure, including the beach, because they will have to compete with other resorts. Its renovation is being actively carried out. In anticipation of the arrival of a significant number of tourists, it is planned to purchase additional beach equipment.

Everything suggests that the city will be ready for the summer beach season and will be able to receive even more vacationers than visited Sudak in the previous year.

Tourists who prefer to relax in an environment less crowded with people choose paid beaches. In Sudak there are also sections of the coast assigned to various health resorts and sanatoriums, which can be accessed by paying at the entrance.

Arzy beach

Beach "Arzy", covered with sand, practically adjacent to Fortress Mountain. Due to the fact that its territory is located at some distance from Cypress Alley, which abuts the city embankment, it is not so crowded. This gives vacationers significantly more free space.

The beach is a quarter of a kilometer long and is divided by a mountain pier, which divides it into two approximately equal parts.

If vacationers get bored sunbathing and swimming, they can go on a boat trip right from here to visit the surrounding attractions.

Having a catamaran rental office will also allow you to diversify your pastime.

Mojito Beach

Mojito Beach is located right next to Fortress Mountain, so lazy tourists will not get here. Thanks to the current that passes nearby, the water here is much cleaner than on other parts of the Sudak coast. It is for this reason that you can try your hand at scuba diving on this beach.

The only drawback of the beach is the concrete support of the shore, made to prevent its erosion.

For this reason, you will have to exercise extra caution when entering the sea. In the evening, this place turns into a bar where you can continue your relaxation.

Beach of the Alchak Nature Reserve

Beach located on the territory of the reserve "Alchak", formally free. However, a fee is charged for entering the specially protected natural area. It is suitable for those tourists who love beautiful places. And, indeed, there is something to take a photo against there. A rock with a through hole, a large number of boulders, as well as a river flowing into the sea will be remembered for a long time by guests of Sudak.

Free beaches of Sudak

It happens that you need to save on everything, since the money is spent on travel and accommodation, but everyone wants to be by the sea. In this case for beach holiday coastal areas with free recreation are suitable.

It is possible to get a sun lounger or umbrella, but all this is subject to payment. But nearby there are cafes for every taste.

The beach of the Air Force Resort is also free to access. However, it is also very crowded. It consists of 4 different parts with different levels of comfort. The total length is about half a kilometer.

Kolkhozny Beach

Kolkhozny Beach got its name because it was popular among residents of nearby villages. It cannot boast of a developed infrastructure, but vacationers will not have to pay to visit it. By taking everything you need with you, you can save on equipment costs.

There are situations when a tourist does not want to save money, but wants to find an extremely sparsely populated coastline that is not burdened with traditional attributes. Such places have been preserved in the Sudak region.

Just keep in mind that there are several nudist beaches there. If this causes inconvenience, it is better to check their locations immediately before leaving so as not to make a mistake.

Beaches near hotels

For tourists vacationing in hotels and resorts, it may be important to have a separate beach. In Sudak, a number of similar institutions have own plots shores.

Beach of the sanatorium Horizon

Beach "Horizon" named after the sanatorium of the same name. It is quite compact. This makes it easy to maintain its proper condition. As for the inventory, it is present in required quantity. Clients of the health facility will be able to visit this beach.

Beach of the sanatorium Sudak

Private resort beach TOK "Zander" is rightfully considered perhaps the best in the city. Entrance to it is carried out using passes for clients of the health resort, but it is possible to get there for a fee. It is much longer than the previous one - 400 m.

The territory consists of two parts different prices: simple and elite.

They differ in the level of equipment. Separately, the excellent grooming of its territory is noted. A common disadvantage There may be a lack of food outlets, so you need to plan your visit here after being refreshed. The shore cover consists of small pebbles and sand.

Malibu Beaches

Villa beaches "Millennium" or, as they are also called, "Malibu", located near the water park. It is for this reason that they will be attractive to tourists who love various kinds water activities. And the spent energy can be more than restored in any of the cafes widely represented here. Although admission here is free, you will have to pay for a sun lounger of a characteristic black color.

Beach of the Priboy Hotel

The hotel beach is nearby "Surf". Its territory is small, but the space is very well organized and all the equipment necessary for a tourist is present. Only holders of hotel passes can access this part of the coast, so the issue of visiting this particular beach will have to be decided there.

Beach of the Zvezdny boarding house

Boarding house beach "Star" Although he is assigned to this health institution, admission is free. Therefore, for his clients, a place by the sea is by no means guaranteed.

Even the relatively short coastline that makes up the beaches of Sudak provides an opportunity to relax for tourists of all age, property and family categories. The combination of service within the city and the most picturesque places adjacent to its territory will satisfy those guests who love both “civilization” and wild nature.

BEACH AT CAPE MEGANOME

Kapsel is the Sudak valley with a length of 7 km from Cape Alchak to Meganom. The beaches of Meganom do not have names, but they also delight with their clean sand and clear water. Sandy areas give way to rocky areas overgrown with grass.

Is, thanks a large number beaches, the ruins of an ancient fortress located on its territory, as well as proximity to interesting attractions.

When going to a resort, most people prefer to stay in close proximity to the place where they will relax, that is, swim and sunbathe, and since there are several beaches in Sudak, you should find out in advance what each of them is and choose the most suitable one . Then it will be easier to decide on a place to live.

A distinctive feature of the coastal zone of southeastern Crimea is soft dark quartz sand and a very pleasant climate, so the beaches of Sudak are considered the best on this coast.

Central (city) beach of Sudak

It is quite difficult to understand which beach in Sudak is called “City”, since along the embankment about 2 km long there are several territories divided among themselves: “Neo”, “West”, “Arzy”, “Horizon”, “Sudak”, “ East”, beaches of the Air Force sanatorium, “Kolkhozny”, “Villa Millennium”, “DOL Chaika”, “At Mount Alchak”. They differ in the quality of services provided and availability (there are paid and free ones). For vacationers there are various attractions, just like on land (slot machines, carousels, board games), and on the water ( water slides, banana, catamarans, motorcycle), along the embankment there are cafes and souvenir shops.

Almost all the beaches within Sudak are sandy, with a thin strip of pebbles, and only under Mount Krepostnoy - all of them are pebbly. In summer, all places near the water are completely filled, even on the paid beaches of Sudak, so lovers have a relaxing holiday They chose the territories close to the city.

Uyutnensky beaches

On the other side of the Genoese fortress from the city beach there are Uyutnensky beaches. These include: “Uyutnensky”, “Sokol” and “OLZH”. They are not as busy as Sudak, and there is not such a wide range of entertainment as there, but there is cleaner water and a more beautiful landscape. Here you can even go scuba diving or snorkeling and explore the nearby rock.

Beaches of Kapsel Bay

On the other side of the city beaches is Kapselskaya Bay (from Mount Alchak to Cape Meganom). All its beaches are free, as they are not well-maintained, but at the same time they are very popular, since the water is clean and there are not many people. Everyone can find a place to their liking, as there are comfortable pebble bays, sandy or with rocks. You can get to them on foot or by car, driving straight to the sea.

The most popular beach is located near Cape Meganom, as there are a lot of small cafes, the cleanest water and convenient place for diving. That's why it's nearby children's camp where they do scuba diving.

Fans of relaxing on wild and nudist beaches can find them between Sudak and the New World. You can get to them by regular buses going in this direction, and then walking 3-4 km through the park. The most popular beach is located near Turtle Rock, which is located in the middle between Novy Svet and Uyutny.

Further along the coast behind the New World there is the “Tsarsky Beach”, which can be reached either on foot through the reserve (about 3 km) or by boat. The local mountain landscape and clean sand leave a lasting impression.

Sudak is a small resort town located on the Black Sea coast in Crimea.

The city is located on the shore of the Sudak Bay of the same name, in the middle part of the southeastern coast of the Crimean Peninsula. The climate in Sudak is mild and arid, without sharp temperature fluctuations and is close to the climate of the southern coast of Crimea. Precipitation in Sudak is half as much as in Sudak, and there are more hours of sunshine per year. The resort (swimming) season in Sudak is one of the longest in Crimea, on average it lasts from early June to mid-October, July - August are considered especially hot months, at this time the air temperature can reach +38°C, and sea water coastal waters warm up to +24 - +25 degrees.

Warm summers accompanied by sun, a sea suitable for swimming, picturesque mountain landscapes and a variety of relatively inexpensive accommodation are the main reasons that make holidays in Sudak so attractive for many tourists.

Beaches and sea in Sudak

The beach strip in Sudak is quite long. The beaches stretch along Sudak Bay. The beaches, like the entrance to the sea, are gentle, with coarse gray sand mixed with pebbles. But all these seemingly advantages did not make Sudak attractive to us.

In our opinion, the beaches in the city center are far from decent and comfortable, and for the money you have to pay for a vacation, you can find much better and more developed places to relax.

Beaches in Sudak are a complex of beaches consisting of small beaches separated by breakwaters.

Basically, all beaches in Sudak are free, open in daytime. However, beach equipment will have to be rented. The rental price depends on the specific beach. On average, the cost of renting a sun lounger is 100 rubles per hour, 250 rubles for 4 hours.

The beaches are also equipped with changing cabins, designated smoking areas, and there are medical and rescue posts. There are also beach activities, such as banana boat rides, tablet rides, catamaran rides, boat trips with swimming in the open sea, etc. are organized. Catamaran rental 600 rubles per hour.

From the beaches and the embankment you can see Fortress Mountain, with the Sudak/Genoese fortress located on it. The Genoese fortress in Sudak, one of the most ancient and preserved fortresses in Crimea. You can go for a walk around the territory of the fortress, but we will talk about this a little lower.

On one of the beaches, if you go to the fortress, the beach itself leaves much to be desired; you can take a banana boat on an excursion to the Fortress Mountain and visit the fortress itself, as well as to the New World, where you will have the opportunity to swim in a clean, secluded bay. By at least, the organizers promise a clean bay of this event, but we don’t know what’s really there. But judging by the frequency with which tourists from all over the area are taken to these bays, there is no smell of cleanliness and privacy there. The cost of a sea excursion is from 500 rubles per person.

Sea in Sudak

Since this is a bay, the sea in pike perch is mostly calm and warm; by June the water warms up to +19 - + 21°.

Sudak Bay brings both its advantages, sea water warms up early and retains heat for a long time, as well as some disadvantages. The downside is that since this is a bay, the water in the sea will be a little dirtier than on open beaches. In pike perch it is mainly a little algae and small jellyfish, but they do not interfere, the algae does not smell, and jellyfish are not always present and do not cause discomfort. What's more unpleasant is the small household waste, left behind by numerous tourists, of whom there are quite a few in Sudak at the height of the season, and all this garbage is washed up near the breakwaters. All this dirt, of course, is a little, but unpleasant, so for swimming in Sudak it is better to choose places in the middle of the beaches and away from the breakwaters.

Embankment, food and prices in Sudak

Along central beaches the embankment stretches. The embankment is quite wide, making it pleasant to walk along it in the evening.

Walking along the embankment you will certainly see Fortress Hill with the Genoese fortress. In Sudak you can’t escape her; her appearance will follow you everywhere you go. And we recommend everyone to visit this fortress, it’s worth it. The fortress itself may not cause delight, but it will definitely add variety to a monotonous beach holiday, and the views from the observation decks of the fortress of the city, the sea and the surrounding area are quite picturesque.

On the embankment there are small cafes, restaurants and canteens, as well as souvenir shops and some entertainment.

At the foot of the mountain, market

Canteens are generally a separate issue in Crimea; they are in all the resort towns of Crimea at almost every turn; there are always a lot of people there, especially at lunchtime. The prices are reasonable, the food is average, but tourists prefer this type of food, it’s cheap and fast. For example, a portion Ukrainian borscht in a restaurant of Ukrainian cuisine in Sudak it will cost from 200 rubles, and in a canteen from 60. They taste almost the same, only the canteen can cause heartburn, and the consequences from restaurant borscht are unlikely, at least I want to believe so.

Since we're talking about food and prices, let's continue this topic. In general, the food in Crimea and Sudak as well is not tasty. “Ah, Oh and Wow! How I ate”, you are unlikely to find anything like this.

Street food consists mainly of chebureks, various pastries, pizza, pancakes with fillings, shawarma, hot dogs, etc.

Fish and seafood

From this set, frog legs, shark, squid, shrimp, etc., you can choose as much as you want, and right here in front of you, for an additional fee, they can put it all on skewers and fry it on the grill.

Among the sweets, cakes and pastries, churchkhela, Turkish delight and halva are common. Turkish delight tastes better when it is in bulk, and not in beautiful gift wrappings.

Also in Sudak you can find cheeses of the Adyghe type in abundance.

The main square of the resort Sudak

Near the embankment there is a square with a fountain, cafes, restaurants and some entertainment for children, such as car rental.

Another of the many canteens

Shady square

And a monument

Where to take a walk in Sudak - walking street: Cypress Alley

Cypress Alley is a walking street in Sudak, connecting the city center, Lenin Street and the embankment. Cypress Alley was planted at the beginning of the last century. The alley contains souvenir shops selling souvenirs and resort goods, as well as cafes and restaurants.

There is an amusement park, shops, minimarkets and a small market where you can buy vegetables, fruits, berries and other goods.

Lenin Street and other streets of Sudak

One of the central streets of the city is Lenin Street. A pleasant green street for walking and living.

Where Lenin Street intersects with Feodosiyskaya Street, there is a Bus Station (bus station), where buses from other cities of Crimea arrive.

From the lower station of the bus station you can get to the Genoese fortress and the New World. Travel to the Genoese fortress costs 11-15 rubles.

Other streets in Sudak are less attractive

Sights, entertainment and excursions in Sudak

Cape Alchak/Alchak-Kaya nature reserve with the Aeolian Harp grotto;

In the vicinity of Sudak you can go on any excursion and visit all the famous sights of Crimea. You can go to the sights either on your own on buses or with a guided tour; they are sold at every step. In our opinion, visiting the sights on your own is a more interesting and exciting activity than going on a guided tour. Moreover, it is cheaper to go on your own. Buses run frequently, this shouldn't be a problem.

From family and children's entertainment, Water park "Sudak", located at: st. Gagarina, 79. The water park is open to the public in the summer.

Geographical location of the city

It is successfully located in the southeast of Crimea in a cozy bay. The popular settlement was built on the Black Sea coast at the mouth of the river of the same name. From her he got his name. The seaside settlement is sheltered and reliably protected by mountains:

• Serfdom in the west.
