When there is not enough money for foreign rest, then you have to closely look at what, from local attractions, to stop your choice, to buy in the sea in the summer and sunbathe on the beach.
My husband and I have chosen, on vacation near the Azov Sea, in the city of Mariupol. This is the southeast of Ukraine, the Donetsk region. We drove by bus, 8 hours, from Kharkov to Mariupol. I met us a city, early in the morning, sun and great weather.
We stayed in the city center, friends. Therefore, they immediately went there, put the bags and went to the sea.
In Mariupol, it is very popular to ride a taxi, because the prices are very democratic here and if you go by the company, it turns out quite a little more than a public transport.
Go to the sea, about 15 minutes, on a popular sandy beach, here is a huge shore with a white sand. Here, relatively with other resorts, not crowded. The Sea of Azov, as is known, the smallest in the world, but not the cleanest, unfortunately.
Next to the beach is a huge seaport, if you rise to elevation next to the beach, it is possible to see many ships that are waiting for their turn to enter the port.
There are a lot of entertainment, such as "banana", "Tablet", sea slides and aqueous scooter. For lovers of extreme, there is a service to fly on the same level with birds and look at the sea, aerial view. Also in Mariupol there is a yacht club
But not everything is so rosy, as I would like, because here is located, a huge giant industry, the plant "Azovstal". If the wind towards the city or the beach, then the red clouds hook over the city. Ecology is very bad here, as in all industrial cities of the country.
Another attraction of the city is, a relatively recently built "Extreme Park", where the fun can spend time rolling on various attractions.
There are many fountains in the city (including musical and glowing different colors in the evening), flower beds with roses and other flowers.
There is a Palace of Metallurgists, where the stars often come true or various events are held. Nearby is a water cascade with fountains.
In the city center, there is a small river, according to which people ride boats.
Summing up I note that in Mariupol there is where to spend a fun time and buying at sea.
Of course, it will not compare with the Crimea or foreign resorts, but still, as a budget vacation option is quite acceptable.
