Crimea ... The southern coast of this peninsula is a strip of the Black Sea coast, the width of which is about 2-8 kilometers. It stretches from Cape Aya to the mountain Kara-Dag, which is located near Koktebel. Today it is the most popular region for tourist holidays in Crimea.
Features
The southern coast of the peninsula has a highly developed resort infrastructure. It is worth noting that a favorable climate is what Crimea has always stood out for. The southern coast is subtropical, which is closer to the one that reigns in northern Italy or southern France. Due to the close location of the sea in this part of the peninsula it does not happen too hot. The average daily temperature in July is about 24 degrees. Rare are cases when the temperature exceeds 30 ° C. But even if this happens, it is generally easy to transfer high temperatures, because the humidity is low.
Holiday season
Of course, the main source of profit and the main occupation that prevails in this part of the peninsula is tourism. The holiday season opens from the very beginning of June. Then the temperature of the waters off the coast is fairly stable in the range that are comfortable for swimming. The sea - that’s why the majority travels to Crimea. The southern coast is characterized by a variety of beaches, water parks, and also offers a host of other varieties of sea recreation. Since the warm weather in this part of the peninsula lasts quite a long time, and the water cools more slowly, the season ends much later than in other resorts - closer to early October. The period that lasts from the beginning of autumn until this moment is called the velvet season: the sun does not warm too much, the water is pleasant, but not like fresh milk, and the foliage of the picturesque trees acquires autumn shades, exuding velvet aromas.
Relief and climate
The map shows the southern coast of Crimea as a small point, but on this peninsula there are so many attractions and stunning imaginations that America, which is distinguished by its global dimensions, cannot be compared. It is worth noting that the relief of this part of the peninsula is mountainous, in contrast to other places. At each resort in the region, you can see high rocky mountains. This provides magnificent views, as well as ascents and descents along the way. One more feature of this relief should be noted. This is a different microclimate that provides different weather conditions at resorts located at a distance of several kilometers from each other. For example, if it rains in Yalta and lightnings sparkle, then in Alushta it can be sunny and clear.

It should be noted the developed infrastructure of Yalta. Here they grow high-quality grapes, as well as excellent tobacco, almonds, quinces, peaches, lavender and other crops.

Flora of Crimea
