Despite the extensive experience of resting in the Crimea, we heard about a small lighthouse for the first time when our friends offered to go for a couple of days to relax "savages" in tents. We did not eat special illusions about a small light and prepared for a calm and measured holiday on a wild beach away from people and the usual benefits of civilization.
Rest in tents on rocky slopes - the pleasure is not for everyone. Romance of this rest is rapidly leveled by the lack of the most necessary amenities: cooking food on a fire or preims requires some patience and skills, and the adoption of a soul from a suspended 5-liter bottle with a barely heated under sunshine water completely unequal to the adoption of a shower in a hotel room, as fresh water Already enough to wash off a seaside salt. But our rest these conditions did not darkened, and on the last night we removed the number to relax civilized and lead themselves to a decent view.
The village itself is a small lighthouse with our beauty. His narrow streets with something resemble the Riviera, and we walked every day along the embankment of the village and adjacent to her elling. Despite the fact that this village is not as well-known and promoted as Yalta, Alushta or Simeiz, housing prices are slightly lower than in these resort cities. And the prices for products seemed to us and at all unreasonably high.
From the attractions of a small lighthouse we managed to visit Gagarina's estate with a park area adjacent to it, and also visited the cape. The estate of Gagarina resembles a castle with a pointed roof and a spire, some of whose walls are losing ivy. There are almost always a lot of people, it seems, this is the cultural center of the village.
The embankment of a small lighthouse is very cozy and crowded, but food prices in shops and cafes bite, and bite quite noticeable. For example, the cost of conventional ice cream in a cup seemed to me one and a half times higher than in Yalta.
I can say the same about prices for excursions. Take an excursion ticket in Yalta much cheaper than in a small lighthouse. It is probably due to low competition - stands and tents offering excursion trips, very little in the village, and the choice of excursions is small, only the most popular routes are available.
Most often we went to swim on a wild-minded beach, as it is closest to our place of parking. But I liked the beach, which is located behind the cape of the cry. This concrete embankment is very popular among holidaymakers who prefer not pebble shores, and from thereing a beautiful view of the mountain ayu-dag.
For those lucky ones who remove the rooms in mini-hotels located along the embankment (this area also carries the informal name of Santa Barbara), there is access to the mini-beaches adjacent to the hotels with sun loungers and canopies.
Rest in a small lighthouse We still remember as one of the best, as we managed to unite the romance of tent life with walks along a lively village on the very seashore.
