Black Sea satellite map. Resort towns of Russia on the Black Sea: list, photos

Any person in our country knows that the most popular sea during summer holidays is the Black Sea. There are hundreds of cities and thousands of resorts on its shores. Three million tourists fly here, come and come here every year. And if you count how many savages relax on the seashore, then the figure may well reach five million! In order not to get lost on vacation and choose the best place, you need a new map of the Black Sea coast of Russia with resorts. A detailed interactive map will help you find all the resorts that are on the Black Sea coast. You will be able to see cities, towns and villages where you can stop for a rest and spend the best days of your summer holiday.

The Black Sea is big. Its waters wash the shores of Russia, the Republic of Crimea, Ukraine, Turkey, Bulgaria and Romania. We can say that it is on this sea that the most popular and visited resorts in the world are located. Each coast has its own infrastructure, its own beaches and its own weather. Today we will talk about our coast, on which the resorts are located.

The Black Sea is located in such a way that it practically does not freeze. It is very rare to see ice on it. It mostly happens near the coast when it gets very cold in January. Most often, there is ice on the Russian side, but there is none on the Turkish side, since even in winter there are warm winds blowing from the Asian and African sides. During the summer months, it is hot on any seashore. Air temperatures reach +35 and above. And the average temperature for the year is +22 degrees. But, unfortunately, in the winter months you cannot swim on any shore of the Black Sea, including from the Russian shore.

The most important resort in Russia on the Black Sea is Sochi. The city has always been popular with tourists, and after the Winter Olympics it became an even more visited resort. Moreover, people began to come here in winter to ski and walk around the beautiful city.
Perhaps the hottest city on the Black Sea coast is Tuapse. In the summer months, the air here warms up to +37 in the shade. And in August, when the heat peaks, it can reach +42 degrees. sometimes it seems that the sun is shining so low over the city that it is about to fall on you. At these hours, and these are lunch hours. It's better not to be on the street. After all, the sun not only warms and burns, it also blinds. Especially on the beach, when the sun's rays reflect off the white sand.

Despite the fact that there are thousands of resorts on the Black Sea coast, there are only two airports. The first is located in Adler and is considered the Sochi airport. And the second is located in Gelendzhik. So tourists mostly prefer to get to their resort by train to avoid unnecessary movements. After all, it is very inconvenient to fly to one place, and then still have to get to the desired place by bus or expensive taxi.

Also, don’t forget about Anapa. This is the same resort town on the Black Sea coast. There is an airport nearby, which is very convenient. True, it is located somewhat away from Anapa, but still closer than if you got here by train.
After Crimea returned to Russia, we have more resorts located on the Black Sea. Firstly, this is Yalta, which has always been popular with tourists, even back in the USSR. Next are Sevastopol and Evpatoria. Every year, more and more tourists from Russia visit the resorts of Crimea.

Until recently, detailed maps were considered secret documents, but now any citizen can plan a route using informative electronic maps and satellite images. It shows everything you need for a smooth trip: roads, settlements, surrounding landscape and terrain.

On the eve of the summer holidays, the eyes and dreams of tired Russians turn to the Black Sea coast. And now the cursor “travels” along the map, overcoming the Crimean roads and passes of the Novorossiysk highway, and the imagination draws glittering sea waves and shady mountain forests.

A little history

Maps of the Black Sea for the first time compiled by Greek navigators who discovered the coast of the Caucasus. In those distant times, artistic design and fantasy far exceeded reality. The Caucasian lands remained a dark and mysterious dwelling of the gods, and only a narrow coastal strip, gradually developed by the Greeks, was amenable to cartographic description.

To make a holiday on the Black Sea coast pleasant and healing, it took the work of many generations over the course of centuries. The largest resorts in Crimea and the Krasnodar Territory, where citizens of our country improve their health, were previously surrounded by malarial swamps and carried only diseases. The location of the first fortress settlements here - Anapa, Gelendzhik, Adler - was determined more by strategic necessity than by convenience for life.

After the inclusion of the Black Sea coast into Russia, its map was significantly enriched with new names - "general's" dachas, then turned into resort villages beloved by many Russians. The pathogenic swamps at the mouths of the rivers were drained and the advantages of the Black Sea climate became obvious to everyone.

Points on the map

Crimea

After the reunification of the Crimean Peninsula with Russia, the length of the Russian Black Sea coast is over 900 km. Famous ancient resorts, glorified by “imperial” visits, are located on the Southern Coast of Crimea (SC). The clear sea, sandy beaches and beautiful buildings among the mountains and southern vegetation hold records of popularity.

The resorts of the South Coast are divided into two areas:

Greater Yalta (Alupka, Gurzuf, Massandra, Foros, Yalta, etc.)
Big Alushta (Alushta, Partenit, Utes, Privetnoye, Rybachye, etc.)

Resorts of Western Crimea- Evpatoria, Saki, Olenevka and other, less popular vacation spots are located to the north, on the plain.

Kerch belongs to “wild” tourists. Festivals of musicians, surfers and other lovers of free recreation are held here. Archaeologists also liked the Kerch Peninsula as an open-air museum of antiquity.

Krasnodar region

Back in the middle of the 19th century, the Kuban flowed into the Black Sea; now this place is marked on the map with many estuaries - small and extensive reservoirs among sandy sediments. Despite the swampiness, Taman beaches They are popular due to their hard sandy surface and shallow, quickly warming water. Here the waves of two seas meet - the Black and Azov.

Since the century before last, the resorts of the Krasnodar region have successfully competed with European ones in the composition of the waters of medicinal springs, mountain and sea air. All of them, with the exception of the cities of Anapa, Gelendzhik and Sochi, are of the village type.

Anapa and Gelendzhik

Known throughout the former USSR children's resorts are located in the Anapa region. From here begins the Main Caucasian Range, which adorns the Russian coast to Adler. Residents of the Central zone from year to year remain faithful to the quiet villages of Anapa - Blagoveshchenskaya, Vityazevo, Bolshoi and Maloye Utrish, located among unique natural landscapes. Like Kerch and Taman, the lands of Anapa contain many monuments of antiquity.

To the south of the port city of Novorossiysk, which does not have resort status, the beaches become rocky and the coastline narrows. The winding Black Sea Highway (M27 highway) approaches the sea. Along its entire length it is replete with turns, hilly terrain and serpentines. Traffic during the holiday season is difficult: this is the only transport artery connecting the resort villages of the Gelendzhik and Tuapse regions.

The chain of villages with Turkish and Circassian names on the map of Greater Gelendzhik is a favorite budget holiday destination for tourists from all over the country. There are easy hiking routes through the low wooded mountains. The river valley is especially popular. Pshady with the village of the same name. Vacationers in these places will not get bored with the seascape: it can always be replaced by mountain gorges with refreshing rivers and waterfalls.

The most famous resorts of Anapa and Gelendzhik:

Tuapse - Sochi

After Tuapse to the highway railway joins. The canvas makes it easier to travel between coastal cities, but makes it difficult to relax on narrow rocky beaches, cut off from populated areas by an embankment. The undoubted advantage of rocky beaches is the purity of the water and breathtaking underwater scenery. The Tuapse region is a favorite place for divers.

Tuapse is not a resort due to oil enterprises and a cargo port located within the city. The border of the district passes beyond the village of Magri. Next comes Greater Sochi. The Lazarevsky district is located at its gates. Each point on his map is a hospitable Russian, Armenian or Adyghe settlement. The mountains are becoming higher and more colorful, they are separated by rivers and highways, along which it is convenient to get to numerous natural and historical monuments. The healing air of coniferous forests mixes with the humid sea. The best sanatoriums on the Black Sea coast are located in Greater Sochi.

Resorts Tuapse and Sochi:

Adler and Abkhazia

The map of the Russian coast ends in the past with a small the town of Adler, now a famous Olympic center. The Krasnopolyanskoye Highway branches off from the main highway, leading to sports complexes located in a picturesque mountainous country. There is a railway line in the same direction. The area of Adler and Krasnaya Polyana includes many historical monuments of the Middle Ages and ancient times. There are tourist routes to caves and waterfalls, to mountain peaks reaching 3 thousand meters.

The border of the Russian Federation passes along the river Psou, near the village. Funny. Strict border controls do not create inconvenience for those wishing to continue traveling to the neighboring state - Abkhazia. The Abkhazian coast was famous in the past for the best sea holidays. But economic difficulties and the war with Georgia destroyed the tourism infrastructure. Despite this, historical monuments, clear seas and the charm of abandonment attract many Russian tourists to Abkhazia. Border on the river Psou is becoming more and more conventional.

After the annexation of Crimea to Russia, changes occurred to the maritime boundaries in the Black Sea. As a result of this, most likely, the South Stream gas pipeline will take a different route. In addition, Russia is gaining new opportunities to export its products through the port in Kerch. It will be interesting to get acquainted with the maps of the new borders. In the Black Sea, 12 nautical miles from the coast are the territorial waters of the state, 250 miles constitute a special economic zone. According to the 2003 agreement on the Sea of Azov, the territorial waters of the countries are limited to a 5-kilometer zone, the remaining waters are in joint economic ownership. In addition to this, you can also look at the project of a new bridge connecting the Taman Peninsula with Crimea. The Greeks called the Kerch Strait the Cimmerian Bosphorus, but the Greeks called the strait separating Asia Minor from the Balkan Peninsula the Thracian Bosphorus.
P.S. I think few people know that the legendary Colchis of the Argonauts was not located in swampy Georgia, as some philologists naively believe, but... on the banks of the Thracian Bosphorus (“Bull Passage”). The ships of the ancient Achaeans were called beads ("bulls") or minotaurs ("bulls of Minos") - that's why this strait was so named, sometimes the Achaeans called sea ships hippocamps ("sea horses"), so on their noses there were images or heads of a bull, or the head of a seahorse. The ancient Greeks called the Black Sea Pontus Euxine (“Hospitable Sea”), and the Phoenicians called the North Sea (“Ashkenas”). But we will turn to Colchis after carefully studying the path of the Argonauts, which was the Golden Fleece - the goal of their journey...

Subtropical exoticism, hospitable people, an abundance of four- and five-star hotels- only the first stroke in the description of the Black Sea coast of Russia. Absence of necessity registration of additional documentation upon entry makes this territory in the eyes of Russians much more attractive than foreign holiday destinations.

The shores of the Black Sea on the world map

The Black Sea coast of Russia is located in the southwest of the country. From the north, the border of the region runs along Perekop Isthmus, which connects Crimea with Ukraine. The coastline extends for 1200 km along the peninsula and further south all the way to the border with Abkhazia in Adler.

During the Soviet Union and over the past decade, the region's infrastructure has taken a decisive leap in pursuit of the globe's prominent resorts.

On the territory of most of the Crimean Peninsula Moderate temperatures prevail and only on the extreme southern coast is the northern turn of the subtropics.

Near the 44th parallel, the continental region of the Black Sea region divided by the Caucasus Mountains into temperate and subtropical climate zones.

The temperate zone extends from the Taman Peninsula to. The continental climate here is influenced by the sea, so this region is generously warmed by the sun in the summer and is free from winter frosts.

The northern branch of the Caucasus Range borders the subtropical zone. Dry subtropical climate dominates the territory from Anapa to Dzhubga (Tuapse region). In summer, the area is often languishing from drought, and in winter it is irrigated by precipitation.

High temperatures prevail from May to October, and are then replaced by mild winters. From Tuapse to Adler is located the world's northernmost zone humid subtropics with a uniform distribution of precipitation over the seasons.

In the subtropical zone of the Black Sea region, 25 degrees summer heat gives way to mild winter with temperatures just above zero.

Average temperatures range from 23 degrees Celsius in summer to zero in winter.
