In general, Yalta is a civilization, a well-groomed southern town, and most of Crimea is villages and nature. One thing is bad - it is very expensive to stay there for a long time. ”

Which Crimean resort is the best?

Surprisingly, there can be many opinions about the same place. This also applies to the Crimea. Some like the resort for its developed infrastructure and abundance of entertainment, others want solitude in the bosom of nature. Thus, lovers of silence and empty beaches are better off choosing small villages for recreation, remote from the city boarding houses, which are almost everywhere. And rest in large resort towns in the season it “threatens” with crowds of tourists, not very clean beaches and high prices. But, compulsory program for everyone - these are excursions that will give a true picture of this wonderful place. In Crimea, they are represented in incredible amount, from any corner of the peninsula.

Crimea is one of the best places for families with children. Convenient transport connection and the absence of bureaucratic barriers make family holidays on this peninsula affordable and enjoyable. The question of where it is better to relax in Crimea with children does not have a clear answer: some resorts boast spacious sandy beaches, others have a wide variety of entertainment available.

The age of the child also plays an important role. For children up to 5-6 years old the greatest interest represents carefree swimming on the seashore, riding the waves and building majestic buildings of sand and stone. Those who are older will appreciate visiting water parks, dolphinariums, oceanariums and other attractions.

The choice of a specific vacation spot raises many questions for everyone who decides to visit Crimea with their family. Resort towns on the coast and numerous cozy villages stretching along the sea differ both in climate and affordable entertainment. To simplify the search process, we have compiled detailed rating resorts of the Crimea, the most suitable for family holidays with a child.

Resorts of the Southern Coast of Crimea

The South Coast is the main visiting card of the Crimean peninsula. The most recognizable landscapes, clean mountain air, saturated with the aroma of juniper, majestic mountains - all these are signs of the South Coast, where the best resorts of Crimea are located, which have won great love of travelers.

Big Yalta

Yalta is by far the most famous Crimean resort. Combined with numerous cities and towns stretching from Foros in the west to nature reserve in the east, it forms the so-called Big Yalta.

Where to relax with children in Yalta?

It should be noted right away that all the beaches in these places are pebble or sand and pebble..

For a long time it was believed that Yalta is the best resort in Crimea. However, the city is not very suitable for families with children: there are no comfortable sandy beaches, the road to the coast usually takes a lot of time and effort, and the streets are noisy and crowded.

For this reason, family vacations in Crimea are best spent not in Yalta, but in the surrounding villages.

Simeiz water park near Mount Koshka

One of the most attractive places for families with children is Gurzuf. This seaside town offers its guests clean mountain air, good beaches with small pebbles and a peaceful atmosphere. Such resort villages as Gaspra, Simeiz, Nikita and Koreiz deserve attention, however, good, spacious beaches in these places are a rarity. A similar situation has developed in Alupka, Livadia and Foros.

Pebble beach in Alupka

The most interesting entertainment for children is located in Yalta. First of all, it is better to visit the Skazka zoo, which gives you the opportunity to get acquainted with dozens of animals from all over the world, as well as the crocodile aquarium, where you can not only look at the formidable inhabitants of water bodies, but also take part in their feeding (of course, taking into account the necessary precautions ). Younger children will appreciate the Little Farm Zoo.

Big Alushta

The surroundings of Alushta, including the resort villages of Utes, Partenit and Malorechenskoye, are part of the Alushta City Council, for simplicity called Big Alushta. These places combine all the advantages of Big Yalta and a more democratic cost of recreation.

Family resort town Alushta

Alushta is a resort city on the southern coast of Crimea. Its main advantage is the spacious city beach. Most its area is occupied by sand, however, near the shore it is replaced by small pebbles. The rest of the city's beaches are pebbly and rather small in size.

Near Alushta, the resort village of Professor's Corner is comfortably located, where you can find several good sandy beaches belonging to the sanatoriums "Alushta", "Dnepr" and "More". Anyone can visit them absolutely free.

The professor's corner compares favorably with its location: remote from the noisy central streets of Alushta, it provides a calm and comfortable stay in the Crimea with children by the sea and convenient access to interesting entertainment. Exactly The water park "Almond Grove" is located in the Professor's Corner, offering guests 12 slides, several pools with imitation of the current and sea ​​waves, as well as a children's corner for the youngest visitors.

The small resort villages that are part of Big Alushta are very cozy and picturesque, but completely devoid of sandy beaches and any entertainment.

The greatest comfort for living is represented by Utes with its picturesque park and clear water along the entire coast. Partenit and Malorechenskoye usually offer inexpensive family vacations, however, the level of service in these places usually leaves much to be desired.

In addition to the already mentioned water park, Alushta offers a lot of entertainment for families. Dolphinariums "Nemo" and "Akvarel" offer rich show programs that children love so much, and for additional fee you can even take part in swimming with dolphins. Visitors to the Alushta Aquarium will be able to get acquainted with amazing inhabitants sea ​​depths.

Evpatoria is the most famous Black Sea resort in Western Crimea. Spacious and free to visit sandy beaches are ideal for families with children. The climate of Evpatoria is well tolerated by the child's body, so the acclimatization process usually goes smoothly, without any side effects.

It should be noted that, despite the great length and wide coastline, in the midst of tourist season the beaches of Evpatoria do not always cope with the flow of tourists. For this reason, it is worth taking a closer look at the lesser-known villages and resorts on the West Coast of Crimea. The resorts of Saki and Chernomorskoye attract travelers not only with beautiful beaches with golden sand, but also with affordable prices.

Another famous resort West coast - Balaklava. Proximity to Sevastopol with its various historical sights, a unique submarine base and good pebble beaches make this town an interesting choice for holidays with school-age children.

Feodosia cannot boast of any entertainment that is especially interesting for children, however, its eastern environs are actually occupied by one large sandy beach, located along the villages of Beregovoye and Primorsky, where even in the season you can easily find a free place.

It is worth noting that the water in these places is somewhat colder than in Sudak or Novy Svet, so the period from late June to early September will be the most suitable for a beach holiday with a child.

East of Feodosia is Koktebel with its scenic views on the Kara-Dag volcanic massif and clear sea water. All beaches in the village are pebbly. Of the entertainment in Koktebel, the water park is of the greatest interest, however, its size is not as large as that of Sudak or Alushta.

Great popularity in last years is gaining Ordzhonikidze - a resort village with a convenient sandy beach and a quiet, cozy atmosphere.

Thus, East coast Crimea offers a variety of opportunities for family holidays.
