For many years Turkey remains one of the most popular holiday destinations for Russians. Where for relatively little money you can get a fairly high-quality relaxation after difficult working months. But, unfortunately, this country is not the place where the sea is warm all year round and the sun shines. Therefore, it is very important to know when the season begins in Turkey and when it ends so that only positive impressions are left from the rest.
This eastern country has a fairly large territory on which several resort areas are located. In turn, the coast is washed by the waters of three seas - the Black, Aegean and Mediterranean. In the average version, the swimming season in Turkey lasts from April to mid-October.
Mediterranean coast
The most comfortable conditions for recreation are created on the southern coast of the country - the Mediterranean. The climate here is subtropical, and already in April, almost every year, the water warms up so much that you can safely swim in it. In this region, the season in Turkey lasts a maximum period, sometimes until the end of October. The peak occurs in July-August, when the air temperature reaches 40 degrees, and the water temperature - 28. During this period, the highest prices for hotels and airline tickets are observed. Resorts on the Mediterranean coast: Antalya, Kemer, Side, Belek.
Holidays on the Aegean
The
holiday season
in Turkey on the coast of the
Aegean is almost the same as in the south of the country, but still in April and October it is cool. In summer, the heat can also reach 40 degrees, but in the period from October to April, life here freezes, and many hotels simply close due to lack of demand. Bodrum and Marmaris are the main recreation centers in this region.
Black Sea Resorts
The northern part of the country's coast is the least popular with holidaymakers. If we talk about such a concept as the season in Turkey, then here it lasts only three months: June, July and August. In principle, the same period of time as on the Black Sea coasts of Ukraine and Russia. The rest of the time, the weather is wet and cool. Plus there is only one. Holidays on this coast are noticeably cheaper than on others, due to less demand. So if you make a good guess with your vacation time, you can significantly save your money.
Turkey - Central
The most famous city in the country is Istanbul, which is located in the northwest of the peninsula, on the shores of
the Sea of Marmara, in the continental climate zone. The main characteristics of this area are arid, hot summers and cold winters. The season in Turkey begins here later than in other regions. You can swim in the sea usually from mid-June to the end of summer. But Istanbul has an undeniable advantage over all other regions - the city has many different attractions that you can come to see from March.
Despite the fact that in recent years, Russians began to travel a bit less to rest on the resorts of this peninsula and moved to more exotic places, a significant part remains faithful to the beaten track. The main thing - do not make a mistake with the time of rest and get maximum pleasure for your money!
