Crimea is a peninsula with which we have had the most joyful memories since childhood. The modern world offers many options for recreation, but many of us still go to Yalta, Alushta, Yevpatoriya or Koktebel every summer: nostalgia. Moreover, to travel there you do not need a visa and knowledge of foreign languages, and Ukrainian resorts are much cheaper than Russian. However, I want to discover new lands for myself. Why not try a vacation in Sudak? Reviews about this city claim that there is something to see.
An ancient Genoese fortress - now a museum - has been preserved in this ancient place. Majestic, bristling with battlements and towers, it rises on an impregnable cliff and is an excellent background for colorful pictures. Regularly, festivals of reenactors - enthusiasts who regularly recreate costumes, weapons and household items of the Middle Ages, organize jousting tournaments are regularly organized within its walls . If you choose a vacation in Sudak, reviews recommend coming in August, because at this time there is an international festival of these lovers of historical robes and battles.
The fertile nature of the surroundings of the city attracts a hike. This is the eastern part of the South Coast of Crimea, or the very south of the east of the peninsula - call it what you want, but the climate here is not as rainy as in Yalta, and not as windy as in Feodosia. From the north, the resort is covered by the mountains of Perch and St. George, in the west, the natural border is the Fortress Rock, and in the east - Mount Alchak. If you don’t lie on the beach and prefer an active vacation in Sudak, experienced tourists suggest climbing Perch, going on an excursion to the New World and visiting Cape Meganom.
Sudak is not a universally recognized children's resort, such as, for example, Yevpatoriya, but here you can relax with the kids. The beaches are mostly pebbled, which turn into a larger one at the cliffs. To the east of the city stretch for several kilometers the beaches of Capsel Bay. There is also a sandy beach in the city - the so-called "paddling pool". For those who have a car and are looking for a secluded beach holiday in Sudak, reviews are recommended to choose the eastern outskirts of the city as their place of residence. The bottom near the coast is convenient for entering the sea, the water warms up quickly, and cold currents rarely enter here.
The area is also famous for its wines. A champagne factory operates in the village of Novyi Svit, and to the east of the city are the vineyards of the Sun Valley, where, thanks to the unique microclimate, grapes ripen for the famous dessert "Black Doctor". Reviews about Sudak are full of enthusiastic comments about the numerous tasting rooms where you can learn the secrets of making, and most importantly - try the gifts of the local vine.
I am pleased with the enterprise with which local residents build private hotels, guesthouses and hotels, creating healthy competition for boarding houses and sanatoriums. The latter specialize in the treatment of the nervous system, digestive organs and respiration. They usually practice full board. If you do not want to be tied to the rigorous schedule in the dining room, you can buy a coursework and live in the private sector - the supply of housing in this city is clearly ahead of demand. There are also private VIP-hotels (Bastion, Prince Golitsyn and others), and for budget accommodation numerous recreation centers in Sudak and apartments or cottages of citizens are suitable.
