In Alushta, we went to rest at the beginning of September by car. September - the most good time, in my opinion, when it is still warm enough, but there is no longer a huge number of tourists, at least they begin to touch around and you can find a good place on the beach, not on my head. Although at the beginning of people there were quite a lot, but rains went to our departure, the weather spoiled and people drove around.
In Alushta in the air, the wonderful aroma of coniferous and sea merges. After the rains, the air becomes more cleaner and more pleasant.
Alushta is quite successful, to the city is easily accessible from the airport, and then ride all the famous attractions. Since all local attractions are collected here. In one day, we managed to visit Vorontsovsky, the Livadian and Massandrovsky Palaces, the glade of fairy tales and a swallow nest. All attractions can be visited by himself, or by bought a tour. On the excursion you can find more, as the guide tells a lot of useful historical information. And you can see more to see more, since you will not be delayed the outsiders who need to be waiting.
Alushta provides a huge number of options for accommodation, you can relax in the modern road of the hotel right on the shore with your closed and clean beach, rent an apartment, a room, a house or villa. We rested on the villa, from our window was a view of the vineyards and the sea, it was necessary to walk 200 meters to the beach. The beach was pebble and closed, it was possible to pass on the pass. On the shore lay a huge interesting stone, as it turned out to be a local attraction, since we watched several times as professional photographers led to the photo session of people and filmed them near the stone.
In Alushta, you can try sea delicacies: rapana or mussels, buy fresh figs or grapes at an affordable price. Fresh figs have tried here for the first time, at first did not really like it, and then could not tear off from him.
Water in the sea was warm and clean, only once after the rain rose to a torment, but quickly sank to the bottom. True, every day the water temperature fell on one degree and on the day of our departure was already uncomfortable for bathing the temperature - 17 degrees. But we managed to boil and slightly tanned, so that with a sense of completed debt goes back to home.
