Where is the cheapest seaside vacation in Russia. Cheap holidays on the Black Sea
Sea holidays can be organized not only in Egypt and Turkey. It is quite possible to have a great time on the territory of Russia, especially since it has certain advantages - the cost of living is low, the service has improved to European standards, there is no language barrier.
There are many seas in Russia, so there is an opportunity to visit different parts of the country, getting acquainted not only with their nature, but also with some sights.
Where is the cheapest seaside vacation in Russia in summer
The Black, Azov, Baltic and Caspian Seas can be considered as a place for spending holidays in Russia. On each of them you can find inexpensive, but comfortable places for guests.
Inexpensive resorts in the South
The south of the country is the Black and Azov Seas. , Novorossiysk, Yeysk, Gelendzhik - these cities, of course, are attractive for tourists - well-developed infrastructure, plenty of entertainment, high-level service. But they are also the most expensive for recreation, so you should choose small southern villages, which are rightfully considered resorts. Of the most promising in terms of vacation, there are several.
Arkhipo-Osipovka
A village on the Black Sea, located in a bay and protected from the winds by mountains. This is an amazing place: a lot of tourists come here, but they somehow “dissolve” throughout the settlement, so there are no large concentrations either in the amusement park, or in canteens and cafes, or on the beach.
Vacationers can stay in hotels and guest houses, there is always the opportunity to use private services - the cost of a bed varies between 400 - 600 rubles, depending on the season.
True, amenities will be on the street, and the kitchen will be shared. It is interesting that it is not worth talking about the remoteness of housing in Arkhipo-Osipovka from the sea - from anywhere in the village you can reach the beach on foot in 15-20 minutes.
This settlement offers its guests to visit the Museum of Wine and Bread, a miniature oceanarium, and a children's water park. There is also a lot of entertainment on the beach and the promenade: a boat trip to the open sea with swimming, fishing with the obligatory catch of stingrays (by the way, they are very tasty in a baked form) and sardines, riding a banana / cheesecake, a lot of attractions, a dolphinarium and a crocodile farm.
If it becomes completely boring, then at any time you can go to Gelendzhik - a large resort city.
Separately, it is worth mentioning cafes and canteens. Many visitors from megacities believe that communism is here in terms of price. A 3-course lunch for one person costs 400 rubles, and the choice of such “public catering” establishments is simply huge. If an independent solution of the food program is supposed, then you can use network markets with quite adequate prices for products.
Villages near Anapa
There are several of them: Bolshoy Utrish, the village of Blagoveshchenskaya, Vityazevo, Sukko. All of them are located within 20 km from Anapa and only Blagoveshchenskaya is 40 km away. These are quite quiet resort villages that can offer vacationers clean beaches, shops, and entertainment.
Bolshoi Utrish is famous for the Zhemchuzhny waterfall and the stationary dolphinarium, a special attraction is the century-old lighthouse, which still performs its functions. There is the main village beach, and literally 1 km from it - a nudist one.
Fans of wild recreation, quiet places and tranquility will definitely appreciate the cost of living in this village - 500 - 700 rubles per person in the private sector and 700 - 1000 rubles in a hotel. Meals are not included in this price, but a developed network of cafes and canteens will not leave anyone hungry.
Vityazevo and Sukko are places protected from the winds, where the air is somewhat drier than in Anapa, but no less useful for that. In Sukko, the beach is pebbly, located 1 km from the village. An excellent highway connects these 2 objects, and public transport runs daily and every 3-5 minutes in both directions.
The village of Blagoveshchenskaya deserves special attention - it is located 40 km from Anapa, it has a sandy beach several kilometers long. Those who do not like noisy parties and nightclubs come here to relax. In the village you can rent a room or a house from local residents - the prices are quite reasonable, only 500 - 1500 rubles per day, depending on the level of the guest house.
Resort villages of the Sea of Azov
Here the choice is much smaller, but according to the reviews of those who have already visited them, it is worth paying attention to Kuchugury, Ilyich and Peresyp. These are small and cozy settlements, which have everything for a comfortable stay:
- sandy beaches with a flat bottom;
- the shallow depth of the sea is the best option for children;
- local bazaars with fresh vegetables and fruits, fish and dairy products;
- grocery and souvenir shops.
There are also small amusement parks, and various "entertainment" on the beach - from cheesecakes and "bananas" to water slides.
The cost of living is "magic" - you can rent a house in Ilyich for 1500 - 3000 rubles per day, a little cheaper in Peresyp - up to 2500 rubles.
Such houses have everything you need for a comfortable stay: household appliances, amenities, bedding, towels, dishes, barbecue facilities in the yards, a gazebo, and often a bath or sauna. In Kuchugury, it is cheaper to use the services of a private trader - you can rent a bed for 250-500 rubles per day. The issue of food will not stand: there are cafes with canteens, and grocery stores, and local residents consistently supply tourists with their own products.
Thrifty in the Caspian
The Caspian Sea should have been called a lake, since it has no outlet to the ocean. But this natural reservoir is too large in size, and the climate is fully consistent with the sea. As a result, the Caspian has become one of the summer holiday destinations, which successfully combines modern service, sea beaches, historical sights and the opportunity to visit the Volga.
The most comfortable and cheap places to relax in the summer on the Caspian Sea are:
- Astrakhan is a large and noisy city with a developed infrastructure, the cost of living in a hotel starts from 1500 rubles per day for a double room;
- Lagan is a quiet and calm city with a slightly developed infrastructure, but with the opportunity to have a good rest with children, the cost of living in the private sector is from 250 rubles per person per day;
- Kaspiysk is a fairly developed settlement in Dagestan, all hotels are guarded, so tourists are not in danger, the cost of living in a double room on an all-inclusive program starts from 1350 rubles per day.
The cheapest thing to do in the Caspian Sea is to rest in Derbent and Makhachkala. These places are considered unpopular with tourists, so the prices for accommodation, food and entertainment are much lower than in the resorts of the Krasnodar Territory. In these cities, each guest is valued, they are provided with a comfortable and safe stay, and the mass of historical sights and the beauty of nature make the rest not only useful, but also educational.

Cheap on the Baltic Sea
The Baltic Sea is not only icy winds, but also quite comfortable summer months. This destination for a seaside holiday in the summer is not particularly popular, and in vain! One of the most inexpensive resorts are the cities of Svetlogorsk and Zelenogradsk. What you need to know about these places:
Expert opinion
Evgeny Danilov
Travel expert for budget travel
On the coast of the Baltic Sea there are also small villages - Morskoye, Lesnoye and Rybachy. But the cost of living in them will start from 1500 rubles per day per person. There are very few hotels in these villages, so it is advisable to stay in Zelenogradsk and from there make mini-travels.
Recommendations for organizing a cheap summer holiday on the seas of Russia
- Rest will be cheaper where there are not a large number of vacationers. It is better to look for small settlements. The infrastructure in them may not be the most developed, but quite acceptable.
- If there is no way without noise and fun, then in large resort cities it is worth choosing housing at some distance from the sea. Its cost will be cheaper, and public transport in such places works fine.
- A cheap seaside vacation in the summer is one in which the problem of nutrition is solved on its own. Rooms with a shared kitchen are inexpensive in any resort town, they are all equipped with TV and air conditioning, but may lack amenities (shower and toilet will be outside).
- Do not be afraid of Dagestan - in this republic, the security system of hotels and hotels that have their own access to the sea beaches works perfectly. But in the Caspian Sea, vacation will really be cheap both in terms of the cost of living, and in terms of the price of lunches, excursions, and souvenirs.
Rest in the summer at sea becomes available to the bulk of the population. It is worth making an effort in advance to choose a specific place, book a room or a room in the private sector. With this approach, you will be able to have a good rest without emptying your bank account.

6. Lazarevskoye - rest by the sea near Sochi
In Sochi, seaside holidays can hardly be called cheap. See prices for holidays in Sochi. Can there be something very close to Sochi, but cheaper? Yes!
Rest on the sea in Lazarevsky Go to Lazarevskoye - this resort is cheaper, and you can even get to Sochi by public transport -.

7. Rest on the sea in Abkhazia - cheap and comfortable!
For those who have read up to this point - we tell about the best place to go in Russia to the sea. Abkhazia is not in the first place on our list only because it is not exactly Russia, it is nearby :) In all other respects, this is the best place where you can go to the sea with a Russian passport. A foreign passport is not needed, rubles are in use, the locals speak Russian. For starters, you can stay right in the city of Sukhumi - in the guest house "Rufina" - cheap, but quite comfortable.
How to get to Abkhazia? From Moscow to Sukhumi by train number 305 C. The journey takes 42 hours. Either from another city in Russia by train or plane to Sochi airport (located in Adler, see the cheapest flight prices), and from there trains and buses run to Sukhumi, the journey takes 2-3 hours. By your own or rented car - through the checkpoint at the border across the Psou River, just get out and show your passport and documents for the car. Leave - through the same checkpoint. There are no difficulties at the border, a pure formality.
In the photo: seaside vacation in Abkhazia In Abkhazia, prices are lower, and seaside holidays are more comfortable. There are much more chances to find good beaches and clear sea. In addition, there are fewer tourists on the sea in Abkhazia - the main thing is to drive away from Sukhumi to resort places, and then you can find a very inexpensive vacation on the seashore. Right on the beach!
For example, the Alamys guest house, ideal in terms of price and quality (see photos, reviews and prices), is well located in the resort of Gudauta, near the Black Sea. There are comfortable sun loungers on the beach and there are no other tourists nearby. Clean sea, delicious food. You can admire the sea around the clock from the balcony of the room - you won’t be able to find anything like it on the first line by the sea in Sochi or Lazarevsky.
Sea holidays in Abkhazia - guest house "Alamys" In addition to the sea, Abkhazia has beautiful nature, delicious wine and food. And the prices! Probably, such low prices for sea holidays in Russia are nowhere to be found. Even a hotel with three meals a day costs 2 times cheaper than in Russia.
Napra in Abkhazia - an inexpensive recreation center with three meals a day
If on vacation you don’t want to think about where to eat, just go to the recreation center “Napra” and relax:
In the photo: Napra - a hotel with three meals a day - a pleasant vacation by the sea in Abkhazia A nice bonus in this hotel is the view of the Black Sea on one side and the mountains on the other. See photos and prices
We also recommend a trip to the magical Lake Ritsa in Abkhazia and see waterfalls and magnificent places along the way.

Cheap tickets. Where to fly to the sea in summer?
Here we will tell you where you can cheaply go abroad to the sea in the summer of 2019 thanks to low airfare prices. The price is for round-trip tickets per person, departing from Moscow
Budget holidays at sea - the most relevant topic in the summer. You can organize a vacation for yourself not only in Russia, but also abroad.
About tickets...
Self-guided trips to resorts are usually much cheaper than package tours. But this rule does not always work. For a number of foreign destinations, it is sometimes cheaper to purchase a last-minute tour, the cost of which may even be lower than the flight. You can choose such trips on the relevant resources.
Rules for finding a budget holiday
If you plan to independently organize a budget vacation at sea for yourself, then you should be guided by the following rules:
- The first thing that will help save money is the refusal to rest during the high season. When planning a vacation, you should focus on the beginning or end of the season. For domestic resorts, this is May, early June and September. Firstly, at this time there is no such tangible heat, and secondly, the sea is warm. And yes, prices vary greatly. If swimming in the sea is not a matter of principle for you, and you are ready to relax by the pool and go on excursions, then in countries such as Bulgaria and Turkey, you can economically relax from October to April. During this period, even the most luxurious hotels give significant discounts, so the rest becomes much more affordable. Many foreign resort complexes have heated pools that save the day when the sea is cold.
- If you want to spend holidays in Bulgaria and Turkey, then you should opt not for half board, but for the beloved concept. Initially, it may seem to you that you are overpaying extra money, but in fact, purchasing drinks and food will cost you much more.
- In order to organize the most budgetary vacation at sea abroad, you need to purchase last-minute tours or use the early booking service.
- Do not forget that the rest alone is much more expensive than in the company.
Sochi and Adler
Sochi and Adler are the obvious solution for a budget seaside vacation in Russia. Tickets for the Moscow-Adler plane are relatively inexpensive - from about 5800 rubles. The Pobeda low-cost airline still flies in this direction. In this company, you can buy cheaper tickets - from a thousand rubles, but it should be borne in mind that they are quickly taken apart.
You can rent a house in Sochi from 20 dollars (1200 rubles), in Adler it is much cheaper - from 10 dollars (600 rubles). You can eat at the resorts in budget canteens.
In Sochi, inexpensive rooms are offered by three-star hotels Roza Vetrov and Valentin, the cost of a double room in them will cost 3000 and 3200 rubles per day. For a resort, such prices can be considered quite democratic. Both establishments have a good location - in the heart of the city.
The two-star complex "Nairi" offers double rooms with a balcony for 2700 rubles. The hotel has a sauna, bar, massage, swimming pool and much more.
Fans of comfortable rooms and good service can recommend the four-star establishments Park Inn by Radisson and Zhemchuzhina, a stay in them per day will cost 4,600 and 5,200 rubles, respectively.
Accommodation in Adler
For those who are planning a budget seaside vacation in Russia, Adler can be an ideal option. The resort has not only expensive hotels, but also quite budgetary establishments and even guesthouses. The choice of housing is quite large. Among the tested hotels, we can recommend the three-star Almira (3,000 rubles) with excellent rooms and good service, the more expensive Vesna complex (5,000 rubles), which has the most positive reviews and excellent infrastructure (swimming pool, sauna, tennis courts, massage).
Accommodation in four-star hotels in Adler will cost a little more. "AS-Hotel" offers double apartments from three thousand rubles. This is a fairly budget option, since in more eminent establishments rooms cost from seven thousand rubles.
Crimea
Speaking about a budget vacation at sea with children, you should pay attention to the Crimea. In 2017, the cost of a Moscow-Simferopol ticket by plane will cost about 7,000 rubles, and in autumn and spring it will be even cheaper. From Simferopol you can get to any resort on the peninsula.
Budget food in Sudak, for example, will cost 200-300 rubles in the dining room (dinner, lunch, breakfast). If you want to order food in restaurants, then the amount of food expenses will increase to 500 rubles.
The most budgetary seaside vacation in Russia can only be provided if you live in the private sector. In Crimea, for example, you can choose small villages for recreation - Olenevka, Nikolaevka, Shtormovoe. In such places in guest houses you can find rooms even for three hundred rubles a day. In larger and more famous resorts, prices are higher. The minimum cost of living increases to 600 rubles per room. The average cost of living in 2017 in the private sector starts from a thousand rubles for a double apartment. In general, the villages can be safely considered as a budget holiday on the Black Sea with children.
As for food, various eateries and canteens, national cafes, canteens at guest houses with home cooking, and fast food establishments can be considered as a budget option. Remember that the more you move away from the coast, the lower the price of food. In canteens and inexpensive cafes you can eat for two hundred rubles, and in an inexpensive restaurant for at least 400 rubles. Food prices are more democratic in small resort villages. Accommodation and food in Yalta will cost much more than in other places, although budget places can be found here.
Sea of Azov resorts
Budget holidays on the Sea of Azov can be offered in the villages of Peresyp, Kuchugury and Ilyich. These small villages have good sandy beaches and little developed infrastructure. Here you can find accommodation mainly in guest houses and the private sector.
It will cost a little more to stay in the village of Golubitskaya and Yeisk, which has pretty decent hotels, an embankment, a cafe and a park. Stanitsa Golubitskaya also has a well-developed infrastructure. There is a nightclub, water attractions, mini-hotels and Renting a house in the village of Ilyich in 2017 will cost 1.5-3 thousand rubles, in Taman and Peresyp - up to 2.5 thousand rubles, and in the village of Golubitskaya - up to 6 thousand rubles. Accommodation in the private sector costs an average of 250-600 rubles per person per day.
The resort villages of the Sea of Azov are not so developed, but they are incredibly convenient for families with children. The warm shallow sea is the best place for kids.
Italy
If you are looking for options for a budget vacation at sea in European countries, then you should pay attention to Italy. From Moscow you can take inexpensive tickets to the main cities of the country - Milan, Rome, Venice. The cost of a flight to these destinations is always cheaper (from 9,000 rubles) than to small cities. And directly to the resorts can be reached by local buses.
A budget seaside vacation in Italy can be organized at one of the most famous resorts - Rimini. Of course, accommodation in local hotels cannot be called cheap - from $35 per room per night, but such offers are quite rare. On average, it is worth focusing on 50-100 dollars a day. In terms of meals, the minimum cost for breakfast is $4, lunch is $7, and dinner is over $10.
It is worth noting that Rimini is known for its beaches and warm water with shallow entry, so the resort is perfect for a budget seaside vacation with children. The resort has a well-developed infrastructure and a good selection of hotels for every taste and budget. Rimini is also in demand among young people.
Bulgaria
In Bulgaria, you can organize the most budgetary holidays on the Black Sea abroad, which is why all local resorts are incredibly popular among tourists. Sunny Beach is considered the most democratic place to stay. Fine sand on the beaches and a gentle entrance to the sea have long been loved by supporters of beach and sea holidays. The coast has a width of about forty meters, and in length it stretches for eight kilometers. In modest hotels, you can rent a small room for $19 per night.
An even more budgetary vacation on the Black Sea can only be in small Bulgarian seaside villages and towns. In such areas there are many two- and three-star hotels, as well as guest houses in the private sector. Locals often rent out the upper floors of their houses to tourists. Holidays in Kranevo, Balchik, Nessebar, St. Vlas, Pomorie, Ravda and Tsarevo can be economical.
Sometimes tours to Bulgarian resorts can be purchased at very affordable prices (from 20 thousand rubles). And promotional offers can be even more attractive. And this despite the fact that the cost of the tour includes accommodation, flights, insurance and transfers.
Bulgaria is interesting for many travelers because it offers a budget seaside vacation in September. At this time, the air temperature drops to +25 degrees, there is no summer heat and heat, and the sea water remains warm. In September it is good to have a rest in Nessebar, Sofia, Sozopol, Balchik, Plovdiv and Varna. The cost of living in the resorts is reduced, because there is no large influx of tourists.
Croatia
Budget holidays at sea abroad can offer Croatia. The cost of a ticket from Moscow to Dubrovnik, Pula or Split in both directions is 13 thousand rubles. In such well-known hotel prices are quite high. You can rent an economy room for $30. And, for example, in Dubrovnik, you will have to pay at least $ 40 for a night in a guesthouse, while the institution will be located far from the historical center. The cost of rooms in four-star hotels starts at $130.
If you consider small towns as a place of rest, such as Plat and Cavtat, then you can save a lot. Resort villages offer clear sea, clean air and beautiful beaches on the Adriatic coast. What else do you need for a holiday with children?
Cyprus
Cyprus can also be considered as a place for a budget vacation at sea in the summer. The cost of a flight from Moscow to Larnaca in the summer is about 10,600 rubles. Aircraft of the Pobeda airline now fly to Cyprus. Sometimes flying into a country can be incredibly budget-friendly, especially if you're lucky enough to take advantage of a promotion from one of the airlines. But it is not so easy to save money on living in Cyprus. The most budget rooms in Limassol, Larnaca and Paphos cost at least $33 per night. On average, the cost of rooms in hotels ranges from 40-60 dollars.
Meals in an inexpensive institution will cost up to $ 50 per day per person. For those who want to save money, we can recommend buying food in supermarkets. As a budget option, you can rent a studio with a kitchen, then you will have the opportunity to greatly reduce food costs.

A more budget option for a seaside holiday, unlike Cyprus, can be arranged in Greece. A flight from Moscow to Athens or Thessaloniki will cost about 8,800 rubles. But tickets to Corfu, Crete and Rhodes are much more expensive (12,000 rubles).
Accommodation in the most inexpensive hotel in Thessaloniki will cost about $ 25 per day for a double apartment, in Crete - $ 29. But in Rhodes you can find cheaper establishments, for $ 17 you will be offered a completely acceptable room.
Budget food in an inexpensive cafe will cost an average of about $15 per day (dinner - 6, lunch - 5, and breakfast - 4 dollars). On average, a vacation in Greece will cost a tourist at least $250-350 per week.
Türkiye
Like it or not, but Turkey again leads the list of countries with seaside resorts. It is in it that the most budgetary vacation at sea abroad. Many Russians have chosen Turkish resorts and have long felt at home there. Here you can not only relax comfortably on the Black or Mediterranean Sea, but also go shopping, as well as see local beauties and sights. The main advantage of Turkish hotels is excellent animation, good infrastructure and, of course, All Inclusive.
The cost of holidays in Turkey depends on the season, resort and season. So, for example, a vacation in Antalya costs about $200, in Kemer - $250, but in Istanbul - $350. A two-week tour for two can be purchased at prices ranging from $1,000 to $1,500. And if you're lucky and manage to find a last-minute vacation, then the most budget vacation at sea in the fall can cost half as much as in the season. Russians give preference to Turkish resorts for the opportunity to have a good rest and food, for numerous sights and the cleanest sea.
Egypt
Egypt, along with Turkey, leads the list of budget countries for seaside holidays. This direction has long been studied by the Russians. Egypt offers tourists good service, warm climate, good infrastructure and plenty of entertainment. All this can be obtained for $ 250 for a week's vacation.
The gentle sun, the Red Sea and "all inclusive" - this is what tourists seek to get to Egypt for. Do not forget that local attractions are of great interest - the most ancient architectural monuments: the Sphinx, the pyramids, Luxor. These places are a must visit place for every traveler.
Thailand
Another budget option for a seaside holiday is Thailand. This country is no less popular as a beach resort than Egypt and Turkey. The high season in Thailand starts around mid-autumn and ends at the beginning of winter. Therefore, the most budget tours are in May and April.
A ten-day vacation in Thailand will cost 700-800 dollars. Experienced tour operators believe that it is in this country that you can relax the cheapest in 2017. This is due to the fact that in any region of the country you can have a great rest for 15-25 dollars. per day. If you decide to visit the country on your own, then you should expect that you will need about $ 400 per month for housing if you rent an apartment in the center of Pattaya.
But on such islands as Chang, Phuket, Phi Phi, Koh Samui, you can rent a room for only 150-200 dollars per month. If you do not classify yourself as a spoiled person, then you will find a room for $90.
The advantage of a holiday in Thailand is that the products here are incredibly cheap. And because food costs mere pennies. A hundred dollars a month will be enough for food. In any cafe for two dollars you can have a delicious lunch, and lunch in a restaurant will cost six dollars.
Vietnam
Vietnam is an amazingly beautiful place. Here you can find many places, almost untouched by human hand. In recent years, the popularity of Vietnamese resorts has been growing more and more. And despite this, holidays in the country remain as affordable as ever. For ten dollars a day in Vietnam, you can live, eat, go on excursions and go for a massage. And if you have $ 20 a day in your budget, you can generally not deny yourself anything. For a wonderful vacation for a month, it is enough to have $400-500 in your pocket (not counting the cost of the flight).
Goa (India)
Goa is also one of the popular budget destinations. Here, with 100 dollars, you can have a great rest and not deny yourself anything, especially if you decide to visit North Goa.
Rest in the resort for Europeans is very cheap, especially away from cities. The cost of a holiday in Goa increases in winter, because at this time the high season begins.
For a budget holiday, you can recommend purchasing a ticket in the off-season, then the tour, together with the flight, can cost from $ 400. If you prefer to stay not in a hotel, but in a cheap guesthouse, you can save up to 30% of your budget. Goa is popular among our compatriots due to its good tropical climate and the opportunity to relax almost all year round.
Abkhazia
Do not forget that Abkhazia can also offer a budget holiday at sea. Since it is located next to Russia, there is no need to spend money on an expensive flight. Many tourists go to Abkhazia because of the opportunity to have an inexpensive vacation on the Black Sea, especially since Russians do not need any additional documents (passports and visas). And the road to the Abkhazian resorts does not take much time.
If your budget is not too large, then you can stay in the private sector, where the cost of budget housing ranges from 300-350 rubles per person per day. More comfortable apartments will cost about 500 rubles. In general, a week-long vacation without a trip will require from you approximately 5600 to 10 thousand rubles per tourist. In the private sector, accommodation is much cheaper than in boarding houses and sanatoriums. If we talk about a budget holiday in Abkhazia, then you will need about 22 thousand rubles for two. Having 30 thousand rubles, you can also afford to see the beautiful sights of this amazing region.
Budget holidays at sea in August
August is in the yard, and summer is coming to an end, so many people are eager to grab a piece of sun and warmth on the sunny coast, and therefore they are wondering where to go to the resort at this time.
The most budget vacation can be organized in Abkhazia. No less successful will be a vacation in Croatia. At this time, the weather here is ideal for sea swimming. Resort hotel complexes are not as luxurious as in other countries, but their cost is more acceptable, and therefore Croatia fits perfectly for a budget holiday. In August, the air temperature is +30 degrees, and water - +26 degrees.
At the end of summer, many resorts in southern Europe simply languish under the scorching sun, so not everyone wants to go here. But Portugal in August is comfortable for rest in every sense. The water temperature on the Atlantic coast is +20 degrees, and the air temperature is +25-27 degrees.
Incredibly comfortable holiday conditions on the island of Madeira. In Portugal, there are many well-preserved historical monuments that will be of interest to tourists.
Good for an August holiday and the Canary Islands. At this time, the daytime temperature reaches +29 degrees, and the ocean warms up to +23 degrees.
In August, most European resorts are not very comfortable for recreation due to the heat, but at the same time, the flow of tourists to them does not weaken. Türkiye, Greece, Spain and Cyprus are still popular. Often vacationers prefer to go to more northern areas of resorts: Corfu, Paphos, Rimini, etc.
As for the budget resorts on the Black Sea, Abkhazia, Georgia, Bulgaria, Sochi, Adler and settlements on the Sea of Azov are still relevant in August. At this time, prices in domestic resorts are not the most affordable, but you can find acceptable options.
This year, the issue of inexpensive holidays is more acute than ever - the depreciating ruble has caught up with the economic recession, the closure of traditionally cheap Egypt and Turkey. And now, when prices for everything have doubled on average, the desire of Russians to save money on vacation is quite understandable. Many, according to surveys of sociologists, decided not to rest at all, having spent a legal vacation in the garden. For those who cannot imagine their summer without the sea, even in the most difficult economic situation, we publish a selection of destinations that claim to be popular this summer.
For price analysis, we took a tour for two with the help of the service for the very middle of summer - from July 10 to 20 or dates close to these dates. We are looking for air tickets on the website “s”, the cost is indicated for one person, in case of a serious difference between the capital and the resort town, we indicate both price options. In this case, of course, it is recommended to fly to a city with a cheaper flight (as a rule, such options are available in capitals or large economic centers with high traffic), arrange an excursion program and then move towards the sea by local transport.
Crimea
Of course, the closure of Turkey and Egypt is beneficial for Russian resorts, and Crimea has not disappeared from the news agenda for the past couple of years. The desire of Russians to look at the territory annexed to Russia, the lack of a language barrier, flights from many cities in Russia, competition in the field of air travel and reasonable fares, the availability of rail and bus connections are the factors that explain the predicted popularity of Crimea this season.
Cheapness is explained not only by the possibility of ground transportation and not very expensive air transportation - Russians are attracted by the opportunity to rent a house or apartment from private owners, the cost in this case will actually be much lower than when staying in a hotel. But the service - respectively, plus the "pig in a poke" factor. However, according to the assurances of the Crimean hoteliers, they promise to keep prices at an affordable level.
There is some skepticism: many note that hotels of the same level as in Turkey will cost much more in Crimea than they did on the Mediterranean coast, and flights cannot be compared in price with the price of charters in a tour package to Turkey. Now, due to the new dollar exchange rate and the inability to find out the potential prices for a full package of tourist services in Turkey, it is difficult to say something definite in this regard, so it remains to compare Crimea with the Krasnodar Territory and European resorts.

Sochi and Abkhazia
This, one might say, is a classic holiday in the south of Russia. Only this year - even more in demand due to the closure of Turkey and Egypt. Plus, all the same advantages listed above about Crimea, only getting there is even more convenient and cheaper. For example, if you travel by land, you do not need to transfer from the train to the ferry, and then to the bus. Flights from different cities of Russia are operated by different airlines, which gives a wide choice both in terms of dates and prices.
Sochi, Adler, Gelendzhik and other resorts of the Krasnodar Territory, in addition to the sea and beaches, also have a decent set of attractions that history lovers will enjoy. You can also go to neighboring Abkhazia, where there is a lot of interesting things, and the country is not deprived of good beaches. Separately, we did not describe Abkhazia precisely because you can get there only through the Sochi-Adler transport hub. Then - by train to Sukhum or by bus to other places in the country. More details in this tip.

Georgia
Speaking of the Black Sea, one cannot but mention Georgia. A beautiful, inexpensive and close country, with an amazing history, and also very convenient in terms of logistics. You can either fly by plane from Moscow or take the Comet from Sochi by sea. You can also get from Vladikavkaz by your own car. Prices within the country, as already mentioned, are quite moderate, a visa is not needed, and Georgian cuisine is a full-fledged attraction and cultural heritage of Georgia!

Bulgaria
Of the obvious advantages of holidays in Bulgaria, the following can be mentioned: a close and inexpensive flight, simpler (compared to Schengen) visa rules, domestic prices are lower, and the hotel base is cheaper than Western European countries. Here you can add a loyal attitude towards the Russians, a good climate and a huge number of ancient sights - in terms of the number of various monuments from Roman times, Bulgaria is in third place in Europe. Well, the beaches in Bulgaria are perhaps the best on the Black Sea.

Greece
This country, even with the "allowed" Turkey, encroached on a piece of the tourist pie, and not without success - increasing the volume of Russian tourists year by year. This was facilitated by the fastest issuance of visas in the Schengen area (in summer it usually took 3 days) and low domestic prices compared to the rest of Europe. Well, it makes no sense to talk about the wealth of Greece - as the classic wrote, “everything is there”. Against the backdrop of the absence of Turkey on the agenda, the position of Greece should strengthen even more, unless, of course, Crimea and Sochi pull the blanket over themselves. To the undoubted advantages of the country, we add a large selection of islands and resorts, a close flight and amazing local cuisine.

Cyprus
This island, especially its southern part, is in many ways similar to Greece, but with one important difference - you do not need a visa here. More precisely, it is electronic and is completely issued via the Internet. An island with centuries of history and stunning white sand lagoons can be quite inexpensive if you take a tour package with a charter flight, or if you follow our tips for self-planning a trip. Northern Cyprus is also interesting, but this is the territory of Turkey and the logistics will be more difficult, although you can always get through the southern part. Tourists usually rent a car and go to explore the north on their own, or use the services of guides.

Tunisia
The only "substitute" of Egypt at the moment offers everything the same as its "big brother": warm sea, hotels like resorts with everything you need, a lot of water activities, Arabic flavor, hot sun and an excursion program. True, it is poorer than Egyptian, but Carthage, Sahara and troglodyte caves will not leave you indifferent. The Mediterranean Sea here, although warm, is slightly cooler than the Red Sea, but the underwater world does not shine with such diversity as in the Land of the Pyramids. In any case, Tunisia has its trump cards at a fairly attractive price.

Italy
Among the beach Western Europe, Italy has long been No. 1 in terms of the number of tourists from Russia. Despite the huge selection of beaches (Italy from all sides, except for the Alps, is washed by the seas), tourists for the most part go to Rimini. But, in addition to the rest of the coastal territory, there are also the magnificent islands of Sicily and Sardinia. But interest in Rimini is often dictated by a simple calculation: there are a huge number of hotels, including budget ones, and tour operators put charters in this city with wide beaches. In addition, one of the largest amusement parks for children and the duty-free shopping state of San Marino for moms are nearby.
If you take other parts of Italy, then the price tag will no longer be so humane, but the country boasts fairly moderate prices for food and transport compared to other Western European countries. More expensive than in Greece, but clearly cheaper than in the Benelux and Scandinavia. In addition, in terms of sights per square meter, Italy confidently leaves behind all other countries of the world, and you can even pay extra for this.

Spain
Spain can hardly be called a close destination - it takes longer to fly from Russia to it than to any other European country, except Portugal. But the country has a large number of beaches and hotels, and the demand for tours to Spain has been consistently high for many years, many even acquired real estate in this sunny and cheerful country, where some kind of holiday takes place every day.
The euro exchange rate, as in the case of Italy, is a fly in the ointment, but the price level in the country is quite humane, approximately like in Italy, or even lower. In the pluses, we add the warmest sea among the European Mediterranean, the atmosphere of a constant holiday and many festivals, beautiful architecture. Reasonable prices for tour packages apply only to tours around Barcelona, where flights from Russian cities arrive, but it is here that a huge number of attractions are concentrated - Catalonia is very rich in them. The rest of Spain is no less interesting, but it is already beyond the scope of a budget tour, although it is possible to design a trip very inexpensively, we even released
