Sukko

The famous resort area of ​​Sukko is located in a picturesque valley located at the beginning of the Caucasus Range. Oak, beech forests, pine, birch groves, juniper thickets form a special atmosphere that helps to restore health and relax. In the valley next to the village there is a beautiful lake, which has become a favorite recreation place for residents and guests. 33 heroic poplars rise above it.

History lovers will visit with interest the ruins of the Trebizond Fortress, mysterious dolmens.

Big Utrish

Lovers of a quiet wild rest come to the village to rest. The shallow sea, sandy and pebble coast, golden dunes, the absence of numerous tourists more than compensate for the lack of a well-developed beach infrastructure. This made it possible to create a well-known nudist recreation area in the vicinity of Bolshoy Utrish. You can walk to it along the shores of two lagoons (here are the favorite places of people leading an ascetic lifestyle). Cross a part of the beautiful nature reserve (by paying an entrance ticket for the rangers 50 rubles). In a secluded area, closed by lush vegetation, there are no shops, cafes, sports grounds.

There is only the sea, the sun, smooth stones on which you can lie down calmly. There are fewer and fewer such wild, deserted places on the planet. I don't want to lose the opportunity to fall asleep in a tent to the sound of waves, in the rays of the moonlit path, laid over the sea. Remember the famous legend of Prometheus, chained to a local rock. It is suggested to get to Bolshoy Utrish by bus 109. Travel time is about 40 minutes.

It is difficult to find a place to relax without modern conditions, but more interesting (annually chosen by many tourists) than the unique natural creation of the Bugaz Spit. There are no showers, places for food, modern attractions for children and adults. You have to take food and water with you. You can top it up at the Kasanlra boarding house located at the station. You can drive to the stopping place by private car and enjoy the natural beauty right from the tent. The width of the strip of golden sand is about 300m. Its length is 12 km.

Since 1995, the territory has been included in the Blagoveshchenskaya Spit landscape reserve. A kitesurfing paradise was created by the shallow waters of the Kiziltash estuary on one side (ideal conditions for beginners) and the vastness of the Black Sea for professionals. The frequent wind on the spit always helps them. Kite schools are located along the entire spit. There are beaches with some conditions for family recreation and entertainment (Kiziltash, Bugaz, Volna). They begin 9 km from the center of the village.

Veselovka

The village (otherwise it is called Yantar) can be called the end point of the resort. It is located in the steppe zone of the Taman Peninsula along the shores of the Black Sea and the Kiziltash estuary. This place is famous for its excellent conditions for family holidays.

The resort has long been considered one of the best recreation areas for children. Many camps, sanatoriums, boarding houses, tourist centers have been built on the coast. They were popular and it was not easy to get here. Now anyone who wishes, having booked a place in the hotel in advance, having bought a voucher, can meet the summer on one of the beaches.

Most often, the choice is made in favor of Dzhemete, Sukko, Vityazevo. In terms of the comfort of rest, here it is not worse than in Anapa. Many cost items are much lower. You can visit water parks, dolphinarium, amusement parks, local attractions through sightseeing trips. Clean sandy coast, warm, shallow sea, safe descent, curative mud, seaweed contribute to a good children's rest.

Palm trees on the coast do not turn green for a whole year, as in the resorts of Sochi. The average annual temperature is 11. It rains here in winter, sometimes it snows.
