Beach description
The former seaside fortress of Peter's times is now turned into a picturesque beach. The coastal recreation area is wide and long, the bottom is very shallow, covered with stones and silt. The beach due to the scattered cobblestones is also not very convenient, but on the Central Beach the place near the water is covered with bulk sand, which makes it more convenient than neighboring ones. It is better to go into the water in special slippers, since sharp fragments of shells sometimes come under your feet.
The shallow sea warms up very quickly, it is convenient for inexperienced and elderly swimmers to swim in it, but with very tiny children it will not be comfortable here, divers also lack space. Older children build sand and pebble castles on the beach.
Despite some inconveniences, it is quite crowded on the beach during the season, many lovers of a calm and quiet rest, admirers of the beauty of protected places, arrive in Primorsko-Akhtarsk. In the season when there are a lot of people, tourists are located not only along the coast, but also on the concrete parapet surrounding the beach.
The central beach, located near local attractions, an armored boat, is fully equipped:
- Rent of parasols, plank beds.
- Awnings against the sun.
- Scooters, catamarans.
- Cafe and souvenir stalls.
- Windsurfing equipment, lessons.
- Playgrounds, attractions.
- There are rescuers.
Swim in the sea begin in May. Until September, it is sunny and warm. Water in the summer months warms up very much. On windy days, it can be quite muddy, but experts say that this bottom silt is therapeutic. The permanent sea breeze has a beneficial effect on the breathing apparatus of vacationers.
To specially visit therapeutic mud vacationers go out of town. There are many local residents and visitors to the Salt Lakes. Mud is especially valuable to resolve skin problems. It is claimed that applied to the skin, it helps to remove all kinds of inflammation, get rid of scars and adhesions, is good for hair.
When is the best time to go?
The climate of the Azov coast is somewhat similar to the Crimean: as dry but hotter. In the second half of summer, the temperature often rises to 30 degrees and above, stuffy reigns. To make the rest more comfortable, it is worth choosing the period from the end of May to the first half of July. The temperature of water and air at this time does not drop below 20 degrees, and the sun does not bake so much.
