The Black Sea and the Sea of Azov are nearby. But, despite the geographical proximity, they differ markedly. Their main difference, of course, is depth. Due to the difference in depths, they have water of different salinity, flora and fauna are noticeably different, and the bottom topography is also unequal.
The nature of the Black and Azov seas
More Black or Azov Sea? The first is much deeper than the second. Its greatest depth is 2210 meters. Along the Black Sea coast there are such countries as Russia, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Romania, Turkey, Georgia. Major passenger and cargo ports of the Black Sea are Kerch, Odessa, Sevastopol, Evpatoria, Ilyichevsk, Sochi, Trabzon, Samsun, Varna and others. It connects to the world's oceans through the Bosphorus, which opens into the Sea of Marmara. This strait also separates two parts of the world - Europe and Asia. The Black Sea and the Sea of Azov have different salinity. In Azov, the water is less salty. The Black Bottom is rocky and embossed, while the Azov Bottom is flat, sandy or covered with silt.
On the coast of the Black and Azov Seas there are a lot of lakes, bays and estuaries, which are formed by the mouths of rivers. The well-known lakes on the Black coast are Saki and Chokrak. In Saki there is healing mud, which contains a very large amount of vitamins and amino acids. There is also mud with great healing power, which is replenished with substances from mud volcanoes. In the Sea of Azov, the largest bay is Sivash, which means "mud" in translation. The bottom of the Sivash is covered with silt up to 5 meters thick, so this bay is also called a rotten reservoir. In different parts of the bay, the salinity of the water differs by more than three times. This bay has a huge amount of salt reserves. They are used by industrial enterprises for the production of phosphate fertilizers and soda.
Kerch Strait
The strait connects the Black and Azov Seas. It is called Kerch, in honor of the city of the same name, one of the largest ports in the region. At the widest point of the strait, the banks are separated by fifteen kilometers. The Kerch Strait connects the Crimean and
Crimean peninsula
The common part of the land for the two seas is the Crimean peninsula. It has an ancient history. There are a lot of attractions in Crimea, both natural and man-made. Among its main natural relics are Mount Ayu-Dag (Bear Mountain), more than five hundred and seventy meters high, the Nikitskaya cleft, which is located among the limestone cliffs covered with greenery, the Ai-Petri plateau with a “drunk” pine grove in which the trees chaotically bent in different directions, as well as the Yalta Reserve with unique mountain forests.
Sights of Crimean resorts
The main historical sights of Crimea is the Khersones archaeological reserve. The city with this name existed on the Crimean peninsula for more than two thousand years. Also Bakhchisarai Khan's Palace with a huge area exceeding four hectares, Massandra Palace of Emperor Alexander III, Livadia Park. This is an incomplete list of everything that is in the Crimea and attracts a huge number of tourists. The main resort cities of the peninsula, such as Yalta, Alupka, Alushta, Evpatoria, Feodosia, Sevastopol, are located on the island.
Great place to relax
The main thing that attracts tourists to the Black and Azov Seas is recreation. Swimming and fishing, and generally interesting time spent, which flies by completely unnoticed. Along the coast there are many resorts that are located on the territory of different countries. The Black Sea and the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov are united by the fact that storms sometimes rage on them. Huge waves roll on the coast, postponing the bathing of vacationers for an indefinite time. On the Black Sea, the wave height can reach 5 meters. On Azov, they are a little smaller, but they raise silt from the bottom of the sea, creating unfavorable conditions for recreation. In order to adjust your vacation, you need to know in advance what the weather will be like. And the hydrometeorological center will help with this. The Black and Azov seas are not on the list of the northern ones, therefore, despite the storm, a huge number of tourists still come here.
The healing properties of the seas
There are a lot of sanatoriums and recreation centers on the coast of the Sea of Azov, which belong to various enterprises and organizations. They use them to vacation and improve their employees. In places where there are therapeutic mud, there are dispensaries where you can undergo a course of treatment. Most of the resorts here are local. The largest flow of tourists on the Azov coast occurs in the summer, in winter these resorts are mostly empty. The Black Sea and the Sea of Azov have excellent healing properties.
Black Sea resorts
They belong to world scale resorts. They attract tourists from many countries of the world. Almost the entire coast, except for the northernmost part, is located in the subtropical zone. With such a climate, you can comfortably relax all year round. A huge number of places for recreation are located around the perimeter. The most popular resorts in Crimea are in the Caucasus, Bulgaria and Turkey. What an unforgettable pleasure you can get while relaxing on the azure shores! These are swimming, which perfectly relieves stress, sunbathing on the beach, as well as walks in picturesque places with many different exotic plants, including palm trees. After the end of the holiday season comes the velvet season. During this period, the number of tourists decreases slightly, there is less noise, slightly lower prices. This time can be great for recreational purposes. Which is more pleasant for recreation - the Black Sea or the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov? It will be better where the conditions for recreation will meet the goals! And those goals are different for everyone.
If we talk about a trip to the coast in Russia, then such a trip will cost much more than a vacation on the Ukrainian or Abkhaz side. This is due to the difference in living standards. In addition, vacationers come to Sochi or the Crimea to relax even from abroad. And of course, the pricing policy is designed for a foreign guest.
Among the main advantages of a holiday on the Black Sea is the beautiful surrounding nature. This gives unlimited opportunities for various kinds of excursions, extreme recreation and just enjoying the fresh mountain air. As for the climatic conditions, they are practically ideal. The Black Sea climate is quite warm, a light flowing breeze, together with the sun's rays, does not burn the skin, but gives it gentle warmth and a bronze tan.
Family holiday
When planning a vacation with children, it is better to go to the beaches of the Azov coast. Because the water temperature is very different. If it fluctuates between 19-22 degrees in the Black Sea, then the temperature of the Azov Sea averages 25 degrees. This is due to the relatively shallow depth of the seabed. The difference in temperature regimes can be uncomfortable and dangerous for babies to stay in the water. As for sanatoriums and recreation centers, there are countless of them, and they are designed for the taste and wallet of any tourist. Many of them are built according to European standards and meet all the requirements of five-star hotels. What can not be said about the sea, which are designed for a budget option. However, a small minus is their remoteness from the beaches. Although many vacationers regard this, rather, as a kind of advantage.
In the Black Sea resorts, prices are quite high not only for housing, but also for entertainment, food, and transport. However, there is always an alternative, you do not need to choose the first option that comes across in order to protect yourself from unnecessary costs. For young children, the Black or Azov Sea is more suitable than, for example, the Mediterranean. This is due to the fact that you do not need to travel long distances.
Sanatoriums of the Sea of Azov
Rest in the Azov resorts is the best option for those who want to have a great time, gain strength and health and at the same time save a lot of money. This is what most tourists think. The air, saturated with calcium and iodine, has amazing healing properties. Simply bathing in sea water is enough to protect the body from colds, cardiovascular diseases, and alleviate the symptoms of joint diseases.
Unlike the resorts of the Black Sea, the resorts of Azov are located in close proximity to beaches covered with sea sand and small shells. Despite the fact that the level of development of resorts and the infrastructure of the Azov coast is significantly inferior to the Black Sea, there is something for everyone here. Right on the beaches there are many attractions, slides designed for both children and adults.
In addition, the bottom is most often sandy or muddy. There is no danger of stumbling upon huge stones, which is important for vacationers with children.
Summer ... Where better to relax, on the Black Sea or on the Sea of Azov. This article was compiled solely on the basis of reviews of vacationers spending their holidays on the Black or Azov Sea.
The criteria for recreation were as follows: clean sea, sufficient water temperature for swimming, unpolluted beach, affordable housing and market prices, recreational activities for children and adults.
- If you look at the price, then a vacation on the Black Sea coast will cost you an order of magnitude more than on the Azov. As for the warmth of the sea, last year it was abnormally cold on the Black Sea.
For several years in a row, when the child was small, I went in June to the Sea of Azov, to the city of Yeysk, to a private apartment. The sea is shallow, warms up faster than the Black Sea. Everything suits us...
- I would recommend the village of Blagoveshchenskaya on the Black Sea. This is the Anapa region. The beauty is such that there will be no more questions about where to go. Prices are lower than in Golubitskaya, the beach is shallow, the sea is clean and transparent. Almost every morning you can see dolphins literally 20-50 meters from the coast. Of course, the Black Sea is not as warm as the Sea of Azov, but it is clean, beautiful and relatively cheap accommodation.
- Last year in August I was in Anapa - they got algae. This year I'm going to the Crimea.
- I would not go to rest on the Sea of Azov, but many people like it. There is no entertainment on Azov, in the evening there is nowhere to spend time (for me personally). There are no such embankments and there is nothing else on the embankments. Although who needs what. With a big company (so as not to die of boredom) you can go to Azov.
This year I happened to compare the sea in Arkhipo-Osipovka (Black) and Peresyp-Golubitskaya (Azov). Comparison in favor of Azov. Much cleaner, warmer. June month.
- I never got bored in Golubitskaya. Of course, the village is not a city, but you can go to a cafe in the evening to sit. New hotels are being built, infrastructure is gradually developing. But Azov never considered it as a long vacation, and so, it will ride for a short time - very good.
In July we were in Golubitskaya on the Sea of Azov and in Vityazevo on the Black Sea. In Golubitskaya, the sea is cleaner and warmer, but the food is boring and tasteless and expensive, grocery stores are also few and expensive, and in Vityazevo there is a wide variety of cafes and canteens and in general life is in full swing, but the sea with algae and people on the beach is dark.
- The cleanest sea in Abkhazia (pebbles), we were driving a car, and that's how you enter Abkhazia, you drive a little - and it seems like a strip passes through the sea, towards Adler - muddy, and towards Abkhazia - turquoise. The dirtiest is Sochi. And the most muddy - Azov.
Rest with children is good on Azov, it is quiet, calm, the climate is very good, suitable for frequently ill children. We did not have any acclimatization (11.9 years and 3 years). Were in June. The sea is cold at first. Warms up to a comfortable temperature after the 15th. Although mine did not get out of the sea in early June.
- The Black Sea does not stand next to the Azov Sea, the Azov Sea is shallow, it warms up quickly, but it is dirty. It is best to choose small resorts. Therefore, I advise you Nebug, Novomikhailovsky or Plyakho. These three villages are the best option for families with children. I love Plyakho most of all, we rest there on the beach of the Orlyonok camp. Nebug is also a good village, there is a water park. In general, in small villages there are also many attractions, dolphinariums. And if you want cheap at all, then you are in Makops. Only there is no infrastructure at all. But it's quiet and cheap. And for entertainment by minibus you can get to neighboring large resorts.
- In Khost and Dzhubga, the water and beaches are very dirty. I liked Lazarevsky.
- It is very shallow on the Sea of Azov, compared to the resorts on the Black Sea on the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov it is cheaper to relax.
Go to the Crimea: Feodosia, Sudak, Kanaka - pebbles, mountains, and if sand, then Evpatoria. Coastal, Primorsky, and from there the Sea of Azov (25 km), the village of Kamenka and the Arabatskaya arrow, where it is not at all shallow, but, unlike other beaches, there are almost no people, are very close. The shore and the bottom are pure sand.
- Last year, my husband and I rested in Beregovoy, near Feodosia, we really liked it. The sea is clean, the coast too, everything is fine with food - tasty and inexpensive.
Traveled with parents all the coast, from Sochi to Gelendzhik. And I can say with a guarantee that the best place is Olginka.
- We rested on the Sea of Azov in Kuchugury, a beautiful warm and clear sea, lived in a 3-minute walk in a mini-hotel, all all conditions. 25 minutes drive - and you are on the spit, the confluence of two seas, the Black and Azov. Beauty. Estuary .... beautiful. Indescribable beauty. Also in 10 minutes drive..volcano with therapeutic mud. I am delighted with the Azov coast, and there are also crayfish and Zhiguli (real) beer !!!
We went to Bulgaria by car. The same black sea, but the beaches cannot be compared. Even the sea water is cleaner! We were in the village of Ilyich on Azov, I liked the village itself: very quiet, democratic customs.
- Sochi - one big construction site, traffic jams, narrow beaches with pebbles and a huge number of people .... Everything is expensive…
I have been to many places. My opinion is only the Black Sea. I really liked Crimea, housing can be found for money, comfort, etc. I liked Sudak, I was fascinated by Yalta ... ..
- And if it's cheap and cheerful, then Koblevo is near Odessa.
At the moment, it will be expensive to go to Ukraine by car, there gasoline is 52 rubles / liter, so now we are looking at Russia.
- I live on Azov, but I go to rest and swim on Chernoye))) Although the children are not bad here...
It all depends on what you expect from the rest and from the sea. I heard on the beach: "What a terrible sea, immediately deep." This is in 5-10 meters (Black). And for me it’s better than walking half a kilometer in the sea, then still flopping down and scratching your stomach on the bottom (Azov). And the purity of such a sea raises questions.
- We went with the whole family. All the coast of the Black Sea passed. Kabardinka is the best option. You can also visit Krasnaya Gorka, the border with Abkhazia. Beautiful nature, prices are expensive, but in order to climb the Putin lifts into the mountains to a height of 1500 meters above sea level………..
Last year we were in Feodosia, I absolutely didn’t like it ... Dust, the sea is dirty, and there is some kind of desert around ... I was in Lazarevka twice with my husband, I liked it there. It’s cool in Yalta, but the beaches are small and the sun sets early behind the mountains ... Anapa is an amateur, yes, cool sandy beaches, but the sea is not ice.
- I was in Anapa - super, discos, wines, housing for every taste, the sea is beautiful, but mosquitoes .., in Tuapse is average, a pebble beach ..., in Odessa it was - the color of the sea is not very good, the city is like in the center of Moscow, very beautiful and interesting, but in the heat it was hard to go to museums, although I liked all of it ...
- Azov - disgusting, dirty, small.
- I have been to the Azov Sea and the Black Sea... And I liked it everywhere.
Was there and there. The Black Sea is cleaner than the Sea of Azov. I can’t say anything bad about the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov, except that the entire vacation was treated for conjunctivitis due to sandy water in the sea. I don’t remember what kind of city it was, but it was very sad there was no entertainment, some kind of park with broken rides.
- I live near both the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea. And I go there every year. I advise everyone only the Black Sea. First, clean. Secondly, what nature is around, what clean air! Even if the weather fails, you can use the services of tour desks and visit a lot of interesting places. And on the Sea of Azov, what do people do when the weather is non-flying? They drink vodka and shake in discos. Because there is nothing else to do. But rest on Azov is cheaper. I think this is its advantage.
Of course Black! My child suffers from various problems (asthma, neurodermatitis), so all doctors only send to Black or Dead. About Azov and do not mention. And we have the opportunity to go to Azovskoye for free, but there will be no sense from this.
- In Russia, they are both dirty, Black is cleaner because of pebbles, but for lovers of sandy beaches, you can’t think of anything better than Azov, however, you need to relax not in some Yeysk, but in the Temryuk region, I myself have already been 4 times the village of Kuchugury is a great place!!! the sea is cool, there are much fewer people than in the advertised resorts, and at night there are places to go, where to relax.

We solve many problems for ourselves, where it is warm, comfortable and relatively inexpensive, entertainment, food, travel, visa. But sometimes we forget about the most important thing, which of the seas is the most useful for us.
It has long been proven that sea water is good for the body because it is very similar in composition to human blood plasma. Useful substances dissolved in water easily enter the body through the pores of the skin, and then through the walls of the vessels into the blood. Sea water enriches our body with active minerals contained in it, which activate cell regeneration, which means it has a rejuvenating effect. At the same time, magnesium contained in sea water improves immunity, calcium strengthens bones, iodine normalizes metabolism, potassium normalizes blood pressure, and bromine calms nerves.
That is why most people instinctively strive, and in winter to countries where there is a warm sea and it is always warm. Doctors and scientists believe that the most useful sea is a unique medicine in itself, which not only allows our body to relax, but also brings our entire body back to its original form at the molecular level.
But which of the seas is the most useful and where you should go to, at the same time, relax and heal.
The Dead Sea.
The Dead Sea is the most beneficial sea for children.
Of course, the most useful of the seas on our planet - the Dead Sea. Swimming in it, according to our Russian concepts (from dawn to dusk), is impossible, but small baths, especially in the morning, are undoubtedly useful. The Dead Sea has long been famous for the large amount of salts dissolved in its waters and. There are 21 minerals dissolved in the water of the Dead Sea, while 12 of them are not found in any of the seas in the world.
By the way - the Dead Sea is called dead, because not only fish, but microorganisms do not live in it. There are no industrial enterprises on the coast of the Dead Sea, therefore The Dead Sea is one of the cleanest in the world.
In summer, on the coast of the dead it reaches 40 degrees, but due to the constant evaporation of bromine, you will not notice it. Bromine vapors protect your skin from the unhealthy effects of ultraviolet radiation, so on the beaches of the Dead Sea you will not see a single burnt one - the tan will always be even and beautiful. That is why the Dead Sea will be the most useful for those who want to get an even, beautiful tan, and not burn out in the sun on the first day at sea.
Take note of Snow White!
The Dead Sea is valued not only for even and beautiful tan , it remarkably cures various skin diseases, such as skin eczema, psoriasis, chronic dermatitis, neurodermatitis. It is also useful to visit the Dead Sea for those suffering from diseases of the respiratory system - pharyngitis, chronic rhinitis, bronchial asthma, sinusitis and joint diseases (arthritis, arthrosis).
But the main benefit of the Dead Sea is that it treats the main disease of all business people - chronic fatigue, and in this it has no equal. Of course, there are also contraindications - oncological diseases and an allergy to iodine.
Sunset over the red sea
The Red Sea is in second place in terms of its healing effectiveness after the Dead Sea, therefore it is considered second best for the health of the body. The sea is very warm, and unlike the Dead Sea, where you can’t stay in the water for a long time, and even more so, the Red Sea is simply a paradise for those who like to swim and dive. This largely determines its effectiveness and usefulness.
And the Red Sea is the second in terms of the content of useful salts in it, the sea is replete with coral reefs, they are an additional source of useful mineral salts. To those who suffer cardiovascular and respiratory diseases The Red Sea is useful in spring and also in the velvet season. However, it is possible to treat a respiratory disease in the summer and even more effectively due to natural evaporation in the air, just do not forget that in the heat (noon) on the Red Sea, like on any other, you can’t be. Some species are successfully treated in the Red Sea female and male infertility , especially caused by the consequences of infectious diseases suffered in childhood or adolescence.
Black, Mediterranean, Aegean and Adriatic seas.
These seas have almost the same composition of salts and naturally the same healing effect , at the same time, the absence of pressure drops and moderate humidity is very suitable for those suffering from cardiovascular diseases and hypertensive patients.
Conifers forests in mediterranean resorts form a unique composition of the air, serve as an excellent prevention of bronchial asthma and chronic bronchitis, as well as tuberculosis and pneumonia.
The Mediterranean climate is suitable for patients with disorders of the nervous and endocrine systems. The air of the Mediterranean simply charges the body of vacationers with ions, phytoncides, and the water with mineral salts.
According to domestic doctors, the most useful of the seas, it is in it that the composition of water corresponds to the microelement composition of human blood.
Baltic Sea.
The Baltic Sea got fourth place in the ranking "usefulness" of the seas for the improvement of the human body. However, this sea also has its undeniable advantages. and the lack of heat, as well as the gentle sun, make it the most useful vacation spot for children and adults from the northern latitudes, as well as those with a weakened body that can hardly tolerate acclimatization. passes unnoticed, and the abundance of coniferous forests with their wonderful healing air are useful for people with thyroid and respiratory diseases . Even the fact that the sea has rather cool water, which warms up to only 20 degrees, works to improve the body, speeds up metabolic processes and tones blood vessels, and there is an opinion that only the Baltic Sea promotes weight loss.
Deciding to spend a vacation at sea, you need to take care of your health, so choose the most useful of the seas for relaxation and treatment, even if you do not suffer from any illnesses and diseases.
Interesting facts about the Black Sea,.
The approach of summer can be felt not only by looking at the calendar. Even on the Internet, the number of “resort” requests has almost doubled in recent days. Moreover, many are interested not only, for example, but also in the answer to the question, where it is better to relax - the Black Sea or the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov.
Where better to relax: the Black Sea or the Sea of Azov
To answer the question where is it better to relax - on the Black or Azov Sea Let's do a little comparative analysis.
Beaches
- this expanse of sandy beaches, so loved by parents with children because of the shallow depth of the sea near the coast. However, it is worth swimming only on specially equipped beaches, since the sea is still a rather serious element with its own currents and whirlpools, which sometimes not everyone manages to get out of, unfortunately.
- these are sandy, pebble and wild rocky beaches. The choice, as you can see, is much larger. However, each city on the Black Sea coast has its own beaches. For example, in Gelendzhik there are only two sandy beaches (the rest are either pebbly or wild rocky), and in Anapa, sandy beaches stretch across the entire resort. And, of course, there are well-maintained beaches, and there are also “wild” ones (without lifeguards, sun loungers and other beach services).
It is generally accepted that since the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov is smaller than the Black Sea, then the water in it warms up faster. However, the Sea of Azov is located just north of the Black Sea, so there are no winners in this competition - it all depends on the weather conditions in a particular city on the coast.

Housing without intermediaries
....
Attractions
But the sights offered for visiting in the resorts of the Azov and Black Seas differ quite a lot.
But only if we are talking about natural attractions. For example, in Gelendzhik you can visit the ancient ones, in Sochi - unique, and on the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov -. And there are caves, waterfalls, rivers and other natural "highlights" of the areas.
Well, man-made sights can be repeated. For example, in Arkhipo-Osipovka (Black Sea) it recently appeared, although earlier it was necessary to go to “communicate” with crocodiles as well, they were no exception - now many resorts can boast of them.
Although, to be fair, I want to note that so far no repetitions have been found in other cities of the Krasnodar Territory.
Crimea and Abkhazia
Rest on the Black Sea coast or on the coast of the Sea of Azov, fortunately, is not limited to the Krasnodar Territory. Russian and (Abkhazia is not part of Russia, but crossing the border does not require a visa) are also waiting for you.
And its numerous resorts are unique in that there are two whole seas. Today we will look at the coast of which of them is better to settle down for recreation.
Similarity of 2 seas
First, let's talk about similarities. The first and only point is that both reservoirs are located in the Atlantic Ocean. This is where the similarities end.

Beaches of the Sea of Azov

And yet they are different
Depth
Let's start, perhaps, from the depth: in some places the bottom of the Black Sea lies under the water column more than two kilometers from the surface, while at the Azov Sea the maximum depth is no more than 14 meters, but it warms up faster. However, not everyone is destined to reach this depth, since the path along the bottom will stretch for many, many hundreds of meters, and the water will still be waist-deep.
Rocks and pebbles or mud and sand
By the way, about the bottom! On the Black Sea, it consists of stones and pebbles, while on the Azov Sea it consists of sand and mud. But this mud is healing, many people come here just to wallow in it, smeared from head to toe. In the Black Sea, the water is healing - it is rich in iodine. The water of the Sea of Azov, on the contrary, is slightly salty due to the fact that the channels of the Don and Kuban rivers additionally desalinate the already small water area.
Where to go?
There are also a lot of settlements where you can stay on both rivieras. And here the Black Sea boasts various resorts, ranging from the official summer capital of Russia - Sochi (with all the minuses of the capital), to wild reserved corners, like Utrish. Golden, if I may say so, the middle of the Black Sea coast will probably be Dzhubga - a rather dirty place and not the best place to stop, the situation changes for the better if you go towards Sochi or Gelendzhik. Of course, in terms of calmness and purity of the coast, such settlements are very far from Utrish and other quite wild places.
The essence of the settlements of the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov is concentrated, as it seems to us, in Yeysk. In this town there are no excesses of resort towns, on the streets you can safely pick fruits from the branches while walking to the beach, and the locals are not spoiled by tourists and are usually friendly. Yes, and some of the houses of the city saw another king, retaining their original appearance - everywhere there are forged porches, turrets, gardens, shutters. The same can be said, but to a lesser extent, about the coastal villages of the Azov region: villages like Dolzhanskaya, which are small and friendly. There is a minimum (or no) tourist infrastructure, banana catamarans and a photo with a monkey. Such famous taxis as “Slavik”, “Aleksey”, “Uncle Borya” or “Semyonych” run through the villages, ready to take you to any end of the village for homemade wine at any time of the day or night and back for some 30-50 rubles. True, you will also have to live either as a savage, or in the summer kitchen of some private house, because somehow all-inclusive hotels were not built here. However, in recent years, people with Moscow license plates on vehicles have been buying up land on the coast of the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov, and it is not yet known what this will turn out to be in a few years.
Camping
Several campsites on the Black Sea, which are worth paying attention to:
Some results
Of course, the Black Sea is much more popular than the Sea of Azov - on the one hand, this brings the development of tourist infrastructure and offers for various types of leisure besides swimming. On the other hand, the beaches are often overloaded, especially in small, well-developed villages. It is worth remembering that often in order to spend a vacation on the shore a little calmer, you just need to step aside from the central beach.
Beaches of the Sea of Azov This article is subjective and does not reflect an evaluative point of view. Both coasts are interesting, and everyone will find for himself where he will be pleased. Five-star hotels in Greater Sochi certainly cannot compare with a hammock in a stanitsa garden, just as “all-inclusive” cannot compete with a fire on which food from the local market is fried.
It's up to you, have a nice holiday!
