The best beach in Feodosia reviews. Personal experience: economical family vacation in Feodosia. Cathedral of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God

We were in Feodosia today, and we stopped by for a swim. The sea in the Feodosia Gulf is beautiful: clean and warm.

We swam already at the exit from Feodosia, on the border with the village of Beregovoye. Here great beach- a wide strip of sand. The sand is clean, it is clear that the beach is being looked after.

There are surprisingly few people on the beach; last year it was more crowded even in mid-September. This is probably bad for the resort business, but I like it - the fewer people there are, the cleaner the sea, the beach, and in general nature relaxes, and with it the nervous system too.

I don't know what this is connected with. Perhaps this year people went to more prestigious and popular places - to the South Coast, to Koktebel, to Sudak... Or to Turkey, where everything is inclusive. Or, in general, he preferred a proven and reliable pastime at the dacha to a dubious vacation at sea. For example, this year I also went to the sea for the first time, although a year ago I opened my personal swimming season It's already May 2nd.

In Feodosia itself, everything is the same, except for the fact that a sculpture called “Lovers” appeared in the fountain on Museum Square. Maybe some people like it, but I'm not one of them. Over the past ten years, such simple cultural compositions have been used up great amount Russian cities. There are all sorts of policemen, firefighters, bootblacks, street performers, lovers, and so on and so forth, growing like mushrooms on the pedestrian streets.

Otherwise, everything is fine in Feodosia, calm and cozy as always.

Prices in the canteen on Galereinaya Street are more than affordable. For 200 rubles you can have lunch.

I can’t say anything about the quality of food in this establishment, because I have never had lunch, dinner or even breakfast here.

Dear Russians, I feel sorry for you. Do not go to Feodosia until the city is put in order. Park: dirt, nowhere to sit, unfortunate, barely alive “flowers” in the so-called flower beds. Creepy. Transport: same as for pigs. Air: stink, sewage. Sidewalks: break your legs. Yards: dust, dirt, parking lots are not equipped. There is the Internet in the world, let those who are OBLIGATED to work for the benefit of city residents, having no idea how this is done, look at the work of municipalities in France, Germany, Spain... and try to “lick it”, there is no need to reinvent the wheel, everything is already there in the world. Why such hatred towards people living nearby?

Short. Everything is expensive, it stinks of sewage, there are no amenities or sidewalks, the streets, including the Kerch highway, are not illuminated, although there are new lights everywhere, why don’t they turn them on, the sea is dirty, for the same money it is much better to vacation in Turkey or Montenegro, nothing else here foot.

Terrible city. I have never had such a bad feeling from a vacation. I'm leaving for a week. Vacation down the drain

It’s strange that Feodosia is a resort town, very strange. It seems to me that there is nothing special to do here with children. The parks are not equipped for children and neither are the beaches. A huge number of dogs, they walk in packs, climb into the stroller - is this the norm for a resort town? Almost everywhere they are fed, the caps are in shops and in garbage dumps and near homes and in courtyards, I don’t know why the city authorities don’t fine them for this. The city smells very strongly of sewage. I don’t want to offend the local janitors, they work and this work is visible, the city is basically clean, but overflowing trash cans and rats are also apparently a landmark of Feodosia. Regarding housing, I can only write one thing, they will even rent out a barn to you, here no one cares about the quality of service at all They don’t care, they don’t give a damn about the service, as long as the money is paid. It feels like the locals remained in Soviet times, I haven’t seen this for a long time, to be honest. Hotels and mini-hotels are a little expensive, not worth it. The stores have huge problems with expiration dates and complete unsanitary conditions. SES DOES NOT EXIST HERE. The cafes have the same cuisine, especially those near the beaches. Traffic jams all over the city, it’s impossible to wait for a taxi. On the topic of hospitality, to put it mildly, I will remain silent, apparently they are so tired of us all that they no longer hide the fact that they are tired of our presence. We had the imprudence to go on an excursion around the Golden Ring of Crimea and simply threw away our money. Not only did the driver rush like mad all the way, but the guide also got seasick, either from the speed, from the height, or apparently from the tourists. Well, no words.

We went to Feodosia on the advice of friends who have been vacationing in Crimea for several years now.
The first thing that shocked me was the crazy traffic jams, terrible, lasting for many hours. Finding accommodation for a few days is very difficult; private owners try to rent for up to a week. The conditions for private owners are complete “Savdepiya”. Private hotels are a bit expensive and this also occurs in the absence of normal service. I didn't like the city at all. We walked around Komsomolsky Park and were surprised at how neglected it was. The central streets are clean, but the smell of sewage kills and the huge number of dogs, in packs of 6 to 10 individuals, is creepy. There are many cafes, you can eat somewhere, the price is normal. The sea seems clean, but the city beach is not so great. It's all very boring. Excursions are very expensive, it’s much easier by car, but again there are traffic jams. If you happen to take a ride on public transport, it’s more like an attraction. Drivers public transport Apparently, there is no need to be afraid of anyone, since they break the rules. And I was also very struck by the hostility and inhospitality of the locals, as they say, they came here from the mainland with their own rules. Somehow I don’t want to go to Feodosia anymore, by the way, I liked Evpatoria and Gurzuf much more, both in terms of service and attitude.

We vacation in Feodosia every year. This year we decided to relax for the New Year holidays. While walking along the embankment, we were subjected to inappropriate behavior by men of Tatar ethnicity, it was very unpleasant, most likely we will not go to Feodosia again

Today, 09/26/18 visited Feodosia.
Dirty and smelly little town. Right in the center, at the end of the street. Gallery, on the embankment there is a sewage pumping station (sewage pumping station). The stench is unbearable along the entire embankment. I didn't want to watch anything else. Especially for lunch. We quickly got into the car and drove to our place in Ordzhonikidze.
Although it’s not so hot here either, like back in the USSR, the water in the sea is clean.
Yesterday we went to Koktebel. There's nothing to do there either. The water in the sea is dirty, after swimming people get rotavirus infection, especially children.
In general, in this part of Crimea, it is too early to relax, especially since the prices are comparable to the Krasnodar coast, and the service is clearly lower and plus deception, i.e. luring.

On the beach, the algae is not removed, there is trash lying around, rats are running in droves in the river, in general there are more minuses than pluses, it’s a pity that there is no order?

We were in Feodosia at the beginning of August. First time in Crimea. We arrived by bus from Krasnodar at night and rented a room from a private owner without any problems. The price suited us. For this price and convenience, not a very neat yard and a kitchen in the yard. They said the beach is nearby. It turned out to be not very good, from the bus station through a pedestrian bridge across the railway tracks. It's a fairly high climb up the steps, and it's quite unpleasant in the heat. You can go the other way along the rails, but the same is not pleasant. I liked the beach and sea in this place. Small shell rock and sand. They hinted that we need to keep an eye on things. The people are very different. After Anapa, the sea seemed colder; after a small storm, algae was thrown up, but this did not bother us much. The prices for excursions seemed expensive. Therefore, we went around Crimea for 1 day, liked it, and did not regret it. The city is a bit dirty, especially in the area where we lived, we went to the canteen and bought food at the grocery store. Fruits are much cheaper at the local market. Prices at the canteen are reasonable. There is a railway road along the entire city. Beach, fence, fence across the road and train. Every day we walked on the embankment, where there was entertainment and souvenirs. The sights were not particularly impressive because they were not well maintained. I didn’t like the Aivazovsky Museum at all (we’re not talking about paintings, of course), as in the village, there were additional signs on the walls on tape... In general, we relaxed for 3 days with pleasure, and then I wanted to leave - it’s hard to go to the sea twice, we studied the sights, we walked around the center... If I lived nearby, it might be worth it to rest there for a couple of days, but we came from Siberia and came to the conclusion that it’s not worth it. I won't go there again and won't recommend it to others. I don’t know if it was better there under Ukraine, maybe in 10 years they will restore order there. Compared to my city, it’s a run-down town, there seem to be no street cleaners there at all...

Advantages: No

Flaws: Prices, sea, beach

I was there last year with my family, and we really regretted choosing this city. There are no normal beaches, the sea is dirty, we had to go to the village of Beregovoe, it is located 10 kilometers from Feodosia. The city itself is ancient, there are museums, the Aivazovsky Museum is especially famous. Few shops, poor quality food, and expensive. This city is more suitable for excursions than for relaxation. There is a beach, but it is very dirty. I don't recommend vacationing here. A very boring and gray city. There are excursions, but not what young people want, but young people want active rest, and not walk around the gray city all day and look at the gloomy faces of people. I won't come back here again. HORROR

Advantages: Lots of sea

Flaws: Special resort greed Aboriginals

Dirty and smelly city. Prices are atomic for both housing and food. On the central embankment, stinking slurry flows into the sea (just like 50 years ago, there is no sewer pipe). We will never come here again. I don't recommend it to anyone.

Flaws:

dirty water
locomotives at the embankment
narrow, cramped beach
noisy at the station

How long have I been preparing for this vacation! It seemed like I wanted to go abroad and at the same time, by train, that is, not far away. I decided that it would be Crimea. I spent a long time asking my friends where it was better. And so, summing up the results of my inquiries and searches on the Internet, I came to the conclusion that I would go to Feodosia. First of all, cheap (accommodation and food), quiet small town and the main thing is that the train goes all the way to the city (which means it’s easy to get to the place). In general, I went. I also took the children with me! I wanted to please! I don’t know how it happened that I didn’t find a single negative review on the Internet about holidays in Feodosia. Apparently, now mine will be the first!

We arrived... And our negative impressions accumulated like a snowball!

Housing. Well, it's cheap. 300r per day. Housing - room, kitchen, toilet. Terrible shabby walls, and the unique smell of cat urine... Well, okay, we were looking for something cheaper, it's our own fault. They promised 5 minutes to the sea, but it turned out to be 15.

The road to the sea takes 15 minutes through mountains of garbage, unauthorized dumps, and dog feces. It was generally difficult to imagine that somewhere here there was a treasured sea.

Sea. Beach. We've arrived. Shock! The sea is 17 degrees (okay, no one is to blame). There is dirt, garbage, algae in the sea. Beach? He was absent. Sharp stones. Beer bottles, cigarette butts. They reassured us and said that there are better beaches further down the road. The next day we honestly walked the entire coastline - I have never seen anything more depressing, sad, dirty, and unkempt.

If I were alone, I would think that I was imagining all this. After all, I read rave reviews.

In general, the whole company sadly walked around the city and tried to understand where it was “great”, “super”... We walked around the whole city up and down - dirtier than the city I did not see. Pathetic, abandoned. It was a great pity, because there are many heroic pages in the history of the city.

Prices. The prices were amazing! Tomatoes and cucumbers are more expensive than at home! In hryvnias it seems like kopecks, but when translated into our rubles, everything is somewhat more expensive than in Russia.

People There is no such rudeness in stores even in Russia. It's called a "resort town"

Entertainment Just terrible. Crowds of people on the embankment are crazy attractions where students work part-time. No safety precautions!

We planned to rest for 14 days...on the 3rd day our nerves were at their limit, we all quarreled, and on the 4th day we simply left away from the glorious hero city of Feodosia, which once belonged to Russia.

Almost 3 months have passed since our trip, and I still have a very bad feeling in my soul. It’s a pity for the money wasted, it’s a pity for the ruined vacation (which is once a year), it’s a pity for the once beautiful, cozy city of Feodosia.

What I didn’t like most about Feodosia was that the lights didn’t work there in the evening and at night. We couldn't go for a walk after 21.00, because later we simply wouldn't get home. The lights outside the embankment did not work at all... and the asphalts were crooked and askew. One of the advantages in Feodosia is that you can eat inexpensively. There is no special entertainment there, only all sorts of lotteries on the embankment... and shopping, of course. The beach is pebbly. Nice beach 15 minutes away by minibus - in Ordzhonikidze. We went there. Some private owners have very bad housing... and for a very normal amount.

The hostess will lure you with discounts, there’s nothing to do there! We came on vacation with our family and stayed in a mini hotel that looked nice and beautiful. And everything seemed to be fine at first! In the morning we went to the beach to swim, and then it started, the beach is small, there is nowhere to have entertainment, minimal cafes, not enough, not even a place to eat, we went to Koktebel there and there are more people and entertainment in general life! We arrived and said we were moving out. The hostess (Armenian) at the beginning refused to give the money, but the payment was 30k for 2 weeks, then she raised a fuss and started yelling, in the end we had to pay for 2 nights, well, God bless him, she also paid 1400 R less and said that there is no more when we packed our things, it turned out that the girl’s wallet with all the money in general was missing great holiday just 5 points. Hotel on Kalinina Street.

The vacation was not a success. It all started out quite well. We reserved housing, a boathouse right on the shore of the Black Sea embankment. Not cheap, 8 thousand rubles. day. The path lay through ferry crossing on a single ticket. There are a lot of waits for transport. You have to wait for the ferry, then wait for the bus to Feodosia. Hours pass in anticipation. After the crossing, the buses are destroyed, condensation flows from the air conditioners directly onto the passengers, and the seats are falling apart. In general, the road from Krasnodar to Feodosia took almost 10 hours. Well, okay, we've arrived. To my credit, the owners of the boathouse met me at the station and took me to the place. The first impression is euphoria from the sea. Let me get ahead of myself, this is the only positive point in the review - the sea.... That's it. There is nothing else there, in Feodosia. Since we arrived in the evening, of course we didn’t have time to go shopping, but we wanted to eat. So we headed out to sea and went looking for somewhere to eat. It’s eight in the evening, Black Sea embankment.... and there’s nowhere to eat!!!

Some beach eateries with food of dubious quality, and practically none at all. It's on the menu, but not in stock. The waiters, in other matters, we later realized that not only they, but in general all the locals around, look at you like a chicken that needs to be plucked without making much effort. But this is not the worst thing, after two days of our stay there a collapse occurred, our entire coast was cut off from power! At all! No light, no water, no air conditioning, NOTHING!!! Nothing for 8 thousand per day. My call was taken by the owners as a personal insult, and I was asked to move out. But where? I can’t imagine such a situation, even in Egypt or Turkey. There they will transport you to another hotel and apologize for the remaining time. But here they just told him to go to hell. Although in the neighboring huts, more efficient owners brought generators to the guests. And we carried water from the sea in buckets to the toilet. We spent two days without electricity, as if in a tent for the price of a good hotel.

Prices are a different matter. Both on the market and in stores the prices are outrageous. In general, the impression from Crimea is the most negative. They probably lost their desire to vacation there for a long time. First: delivery to the location. Until communication is established, there is nothing to do there. Secondly: the infrastructure of the peninsula. Internal roads, transport, shops, catering, etc. and so on. And thirdly, the most important thing in my opinion: attitude towards vacationers. Bye local residents They will look at vacationers as if they were their own wallet; for some strange reason, it will be of no use if it is in someone else’s pocket. It doesn’t matter to them whether you want to come to them again, it’s more important to just pluck you here and now. Conclusion: I had enough impressions for about five years. It’s up to you to decide for yourself, but if you need my advice, here it is: it’s better to go to Cyprus. Spend the same amount of money, the difference in impressions is striking

Advantages:

Sea, antiquity

Flaws:

Dirty appearance, a lot of tourists, landfills, broken houses, noise

Details

So, the city of Feodosia, at first glance it seems that the city is generally noisy, especially if we consider it as a resort town, then it is always noisy there in the summer. The embankment is littered with tourists, some kind of discos, attractions and other nonsense, which, instead of giving the human body a rest, on the contrary, irritates the nervous system and as a result a person gets tired of such a rest, rather than resting. This is stress for the body, and what kind of vacation is this when there is only noise, heat, crowds of people and alcohol around. The embankment has a huge disadvantage because of this. Another disadvantage is the railway tracks right next to the city beach, and a kilometer of stalls with goods along the embankment, blocking the view of the sea. These are huge disadvantages of the city.

Neutral reviews

Anna Viktorovna

It is very difficult to be objective when you love this city very much, when every summer you dream of coming to Feodosia, to a familiar beach, walking along your native streets and breathing in fresh air. sea air. Yes, you spent your youth here and your children grew up here, even though this is not your city. Yes, close and dear people live here... or do they exist? Alas, the answer is obvious, people in the city of Feodosia EXIST.
I really feel sorry for them and really want to help, to reach out to the authorities, but you give up at the moment when you realize that they themselves, the Feodosians, actually don’t need anything. It’s as if they are trying to solve their problems with someone else’s hands: “And you complain, write, shout: they say everywhere, complaining about their life.”
I am forced to come to Feodosia every year, elderly relatives live here, and every year I become afraid for the people who carelessly and thoughtlessly go to this small, dirty and smelly town, full of unsanitary conditions, indifference and aggression of the locals.
Why bring small children here if in the event of an unforeseen health situation you will definitely not receive normal help. The food in public catering establishments is very tolerable and not safe. The milk turns sour before it reaches the table, and the bread stinks of chemicals a day later. The sausages are not tasty, the cheeses are expensive, many fruits are not local, but are passed off as local and the price is fabulous, and dear old ladies sell homemade eggs for as much as 100 rubles.
The city is dirty, the river on Plyazhnaya has been cleaned up, there are no frogs, but there are hordes of rats swimming and scurrying about, how people aren’t afraid to walk there in the evenings, and I don’t even know if they’re with children, it’s creepy.
The beaches are free, but of course not without paid services. I am very outraged by the illogical policy of local entrepreneurs. They charge money for a sun lounger in the shade, but when the arrogant locals come and it’s free, they sit right down either on their chairs or on their rags next to you or almost on your head and calmly inform you that we are locals and do whatever we want, they are reprimanded are not done, this is a service. And at a loss. It’s hot, the sun loungers are empty, and the shade under the canopy is full, people are lying on top of each other. This is where people really don’t know how and don’t want to make money. There are no lifeguards.
It has become boring in the center, there is no abundance of roses, flowers, and those that exist are not watered, there are always crowds of already microchipped dogs, this did not solve the problem. Yes, by the way, the locals love animals more than people, many have crowds of stray dogs in their yard or next to their house, they feed them and don’t think about the consequences at all.
Well, and most importantly about housing. I will not write about hotels and mini-hotels, I will write about private owners, since my friends ended up visiting them in 3 different places this year. Naturally, you need to understand that staying with the hosts or with the hosts is much cheaper - so, probably, you could end your story - IT IS THIS FACT THAT THE OWNERS THEN boast about in front of dissatisfied tourists. Be prepared that the first question they will ask you is, do you have children? They can’t stand children, they don’t need them, then, if you’re lucky and they do move you in with children, they’ll silence you and harass you with their comments and complaints. Another fact that infuriates them is your car, it is enemy number two after your children. You will hear something like, Feodosia is a small city, you came by car, there is not enough space, traffic jams, etc. The price is from 250 to 700 rubles, hence the service. It’s rare when there’s new linen and clean pillows; I saw a child’s pillow at a friend’s house and almost fell, it’s a century old, no less. The floors are dirty, you need to wash them yourself, here is a rag and a bucket, do you really think that the housewife will bother to do the cleaning, for such and such a little money, she will sweep here and there and that’s all. The toilet, bathtub and shower are your problems. Pray that there is always hot water, as well as a summer shower, you paid a little money, and when 10 days later you give these crumbs away, God grant that they at least smile at you.
Refrigerators, like pillows, are centuries old, dirty and smelly, not washed from year to year, mostly stand on the street, and if God forbid you cook yourself, get ready for the fact that very often you will throw your food in the trash because they flow. Well, if it’s raining, you’ll definitely be swimming in the yard with the sewer, since everyone’s drains are clogged, the storm drains are all clogged.
The city smells of sewage everywhere now; if previously it was the case with Gallery, Plyazhnaya and the central beach, now it’s everywhere. The garbage containers are full everywhere, there is garbage everywhere, tourists will naturally say, but no, local comrades, I visited you in February and March, the picture is the same.
Public transport is a TROUBLE. Especially everyone’s favorite STANDARD 2 and 4, there is already a whole series on YouTube about these minibuses. “Mommy dear”, what’s going on, it’s terrible, well, I understand, let’s come in large numbers.....
If you want to get from the center to Koktebel or the Biostation by minibus, first go to church and pray for your health, because on this route there are “immortal kamikazes” who rush so that your whole life flies before your eyes.
Excursion trips Nowadays it’s downright luxury, the price is so crazy that you’re amazed, but don’t expect that for your big money, believe me, you’ll get what you wanted or what you promised. YOU WILL BE DECEIVED IMMEDIATELY. And the first catch will be the gazelle that comes for you, yes, yes, you understood correctly g.a.z.e.l. well, or at best a Ford. Although, when you are going to pay for an excursion and ask the seller what kind of bus it will be, everyone has a standard answer, good and safe. Believe me, the guide and the excursion will not be interesting, many places will not be shown to you, referring to the driver, who was only on his first day on the trip today and did not know that he needed to stop in one place or another. And most importantly, they will take you to this or that cafe or store where they will give you crazy discounts only for you)))))
And my favorite thing is TAXI DRIVERS. Oh, well done guys, where the lazy and arrogant people are. They only skate as far as their nose, one or two blocks is ALL. For a lot of money. You must at least kneel in front of them, offer a huge sum, smile, and this crowd of kings will decide whether to go or not. Disgusting, terrible.
I know one thing, Feodosia is dying from a very terrible disease, human indifference. She will get lost in the crowd of her brothers or sons of the cities and, it is unlikely, large crowds of cars will drive into the city I once loved. Drive by, I will tell all my friends, family and relatives. There is no rescue service, no evacuation service, no animal control service, no police service, no police, NO OWNER, in this ancient and once upon a time beautiful city, nobody here. DRIVE PAST…..

Advantages: Aivazovsky Gallery, long embankment, reasonable prices for housing and food.

Flaws: There are no mountains like in Turkey.

After Kemer there is nothing to do there. That’s what everyone says who has the opportunity to compare, and I agree with them. It’s another matter if you are not allowed to travel abroad and have nowhere else to go except to domestic resorts. Here is Feodosia, the first closest Crimean resort from the side of Kerch. An ordinary seaside town, where there are some factories, factories and other industries, and a lot of housing offers. Prices usually decrease if you go further from the sea in search of housing. The vegetable market really surprised me with its cheapness, this is not Yalta, there is everything here and it’s very cheap. Cafes, embankment. museums, the Aivazovsky gallery, this is all usually on the holiday list of the average tourist. But knowing that Feodosia is more than two thousand years old, I want to touch its history and there is still something to see there. Fortress walls, mounds and other places are not as grandiose as in Turkey, but they are somehow more familiar and that’s their special taste visits.

A week of relaxation in the city itself is enough to swim, climb around the surrounding area, and be sure to visit the Greene Museum and the Aivazovsky Gallery. Unfortunately, the sea in Augusta fills with algae and, as the locals say, begins to bloom. But very warm and affectionate. We swam on Golden Beach, public transport goes there, it’s somehow better there than on city beaches, wider, fewer people, but if the wind rises, then this sand is in your eyes and ears and nose, then you immediately remember pebble beaches Sochi. If you don’t find fault with the fact that everything here still smells like the nineties, then it’s quite a passable vacation for reasonable money. It’s definitely worth coming here, at least for show. By the way, nearby is the village of Primorsky where we were before, but I’ll write about it next time.

Advantages: Fast food restaurants, wine, promenade.

Flaws: Dirty sea, expensive nightclubs.

Arriving in Feodosia, we checked into a regular hotel and went to wander around the city. The first thing that greeted us was an abundance of cafes and beautiful people, but before reaching the embankment we were stunned, tons of dirt along with water from the recent rain poured straight from the embankment into the sea, and we went to the nearest bar without swimming in the sea. This was the first reaction to the city of Feodosia.

But the next day everything worked out and we bought it. I would also like to mention the Aivazovsky Gallery, a takeaway pizzeria, and an abundance of bars and nightclubs. By the way, the prices in nightclubs are very unpleasant and too high.

I really liked that the picturesque railway (and an active one) runs right along the embankment, I liked the fast food chains and the abundance of self-service restaurants with delicious cuisine.

What I didn’t like was that during our stay in the city, we couldn’t find rum to make a mojito; we had to go around a lot of shops, but we never found it.

In general, Feodosia, apart from a couple of historical monuments, and the railway on the embankment, is not particularly memorable, so to speak, a city for one time.

Advantages:

cheap
close to the bus station and train station

Flaws:

locomotives at the embankment
noisy at the station

Let's say you come to Feodosia for a couple of days. Well, or we decided to stop for a day along the way (for example, to Kerch and further to Russia). And you don’t want to pay 500 hryvnia for an overnight stay... I really don’t want to. You are satisfied with the level of the hostel (toilet-shower in the corridor, the sea is a couple of stops away, no need absolute silence). Then come here, to the rest room at Aivazovskaya station. By the way, if you came to Feodosia by bus, you won’t have to go anywhere. You just have to go around the church that is opposite the bus station and cross the road - and you are there. I'm spending the night in. 3x local number(with accommodation, which does not yet exist). For a day I paid 37 hryvnia (about 150 rubles) + 15 grams for a shower. The room is spacious, the beds are good. There is a wardrobe and a washbasin in the room. Toilet and shower in the hallway, shower stall and boiler. And all this is almost for nothing. Unlike the services of one campsite in Koktebel. The only drawback is that the building is located on a railway platform. And my room also has windows on the track, and sometimes steam locomotives pass by. Well, yes, you can survive one or two nights. If your nerves are not shaken, I recommend it. A decent solution for the price.

Advantages:

quite affordable price
lots of excursions

Flaws:

railway near the beach
narrow, cramped beach

When my husband and I were once again deciding where to go, we pointed our finger at the trains)) Feodosia fell out. We vacationed with our 4-year-old daughter. Pros: quite affordable, very pleasant central streets, the presence of monuments and museums in the city itself (A. Green, Aivazovsky, temples of various religious denominations), a market with affordable prices for seasonal fruits and vegetables, the opportunity to independently go to many excursion places - there are regular buses, the prices of which are several times lower than excursion prices (this is how we went to the dolphinarium). Koktebel is relatively close (you can go for cognac or to the house of writers, whichever is closer)))

Among the disadvantages: dirt, you turn a little to the side, eternal dogs, a port next to the beach and a railway. And the beach itself is very narrow. When we were there, a “golden” shell beach was being built outside the city. We got there by minibus, but then there was no There's nothing there except the beach itself.

Advantages:

Comfortable and affordable housing.

Flaws:

Not a very clean environment.

Details

In my opinion, you need to go on vacation to Crimea first in order to enjoy its unique nature. On the southern coast of Crimea, in cities such as Yalta, Alushta, Alupka, Sudak, you can really see amazing plants, the pristine nature of the mountains and coastline with crystal clear sea water of a unique color. Unfortunately, this cannot be said about Feodosia. But the coast of Feodosia lives its own nightlife, when you go out in the evening you will find many cafes, various entertainment venues and entertainment attractions. Fans of more active holidays should visit this resort and, if desired, can go on excursions to other cities south coast Crimea, which are held everywhere here.

Positive reviews

We just arrived yesterday. Everything is fine! 30 seconds to the sea. The hostess is great! Prices on the embankment are the same as everywhere else. The child was very happy

We rested in August 2018 in Feodosia, the sea was warm, we lived in a hotel, Three Pines" on Veresaeva street 12, the city is very calm, the people are hospitable and helpful. I liked everything.

Advantages: not a resort town

Flaws: bad city beach

Feodosia is the third city we visited after Sudak and Alushta.

It's not a resort at all, let's start with this.

There is a railway track running through Feodosia, almost along the beach)) That is, to get to the beach you need to overcome the railway tracks.

The embankment of Feodosia is large, tiled, the city beach is pebbly and very narrow, it’s not very good to swim or sunbathe here. But if you live nearby, you can go here too.

There are also several interesting objects on the embankment. Monument to Aivazovsky and its gallery, scarlet sails panel, beautiful fountain near the embankment, a gallery of temporary exhibitions a little further away.

It's also here interesting cafes. I used to like the cafe Canteen at home, but now it’s not so much anymore, their dishes have deteriorated and the prices have gone up, everything has become too expensive)) But you can eat, especially since the canteen is located in the premises of a former cool restaurant.

If you go to the dachas (former dachas of various rich people from the Russian Empire), you will find a cool shop with chebureks at the crossroads.

The boy or his dad makes them, the pasties are so delicious that you can eat three of them at once, the dough is amazing. I always eat them with cheese and they are the most delicious pasties I have ever seen.

The Genoese fortress, which once encircled the entire city, is now represented only by a couple of towers and ruins, which can also be seen.

The money museum is also an interesting object. So many coins, they walked for two hours and then I looked at everything in a shady way.

Of the beaches, this golden beach (coastal) is the coolest. Wide beach, red sand, shower, toilet, everything is done.

There are also many wild beaches with stones, for example, before reaching Ordzhonikidze, there are few people there, and there are even nudists.

I like Feodosia because there are no locals here who want to take something from you) For example, this is what happens in Simeiz)))

There are a lot of people who live here permanently and that makes me happy; I don’t like resort towns. Here you are just walking down the street, just enjoying life. An ordinary town. Plus the sea. What could be better?

Advantages: A calm city for families with children, many attractions, places to go and things to see

Flaws: Expensive prices for products

I was in Crimea back in 2012, when it was part of Ukraine, so I think that now things have become even more civilized there. The city can be easily reached by bus from nearby cities. Feodosia itself is calm and perfect for families with children; the city has several beaches. There are no problems with housing, there are hotels, there are many residents who rent out rooms and houses. Personally, my friend and I rented a room in a house near the bus station, the price was absolutely reasonable and it was convenient to get to the beach, during the day you can go on excursions to significant places in Feodosia, it’s easy Thanks to the guides who stand near the bus station, you can sign up for an excursion in advance; I recommend visiting Ai-Petri.

There are many cafes on the beach where you can sit during the day and dance to a special show program in the evening.

In the center there is an amusement park with a variety of attractions from young to old. We especially liked the high-rise building, where you rise slowly up and drop sharply down, it’s breathtaking and you can see the whole city from above in full view.

A large number of cafes for evening pastime and museums for daytime self-development.

Advantages:

big beautiful beaches
exciting atmosphere
beautiful sea
a lot of different cafes
convenient location

I was in Feodosia last year, so the memories are still quite fresh) I arrived there in mid-July, during the high season, but finding a room was not difficult. As soon as you get off the bus or train, a crowd of tourist-thirsty hosts swoops in on you, as well as in all resort towns) Accommodation is not very expensive, but not cheap either, be prepared)) And in general, I advise you to take more money - it’s a resort, after all, there are temptations everywhere) First of all, we went to the beach. The beach in Feodosia is free and clean , really crowded. Interesting feature Feodosia has a railway that literally runs along the embankment) But you quickly get used to it)

How to visit Feodosia and not go to the Aivazovsky Museum? That’s right, no way))) The museum made a huge impression - it’s gorgeous! The paintings are simply amazing with their beauty and scale. I was surprised by Aivazosky’s talent! He was truly Talented, that’s right, with a capital T)

And now the promised advice: there is a castle outside the city - go there!) The visit is free, since the castle has not been restored - but that’s the whole point) The place is so atmospheric and beautiful - it literally breathes the spirit of history, the imagination draws pictures of siege and battles) And this I have a girl who is not interested in history) And what will happen to those who are interested in it!)

Advantages:

very exciting

Flaws:

not European standard

When I started earning money on my own cash for my existence (at the age of 15), then I accordingly had a great desire to relax after the hard work of everyday life. Visit Black Sea coast I somehow never wanted Russia, but the Black Sea coast of Ukraine has always drawn me, maybe the deep roots are making themselves felt.

Since it is direct flight Moscow - Feodosia, transfers during the first few days scared me a lot. That's why I went there on my first trip. The city is located on the very shore of the Black Sea. Quite clean, although some renovation could be done to its buildings. True, during the season at sea there is absolutely no place to lie down and pamper your bones. We had to go to the nearest village of Primorsky to swim and sunbathe.

Night walks around the city are surprisingly romantic, the main thing is not to get lost. I advise everyone to visit the Golden Fleece restaurant, simply very excellent cuisine and very affordable prices. During the day, in the midday heat (or in the darkness of the night), you can perform boat trip by boat, visit museums, of which there are a huge number and all of them are located not far from the sea. It would take a long time to describe this wonderful city, so I advise everyone to just visit it and relax, and better, “savages” and economically and have a lot of impressions.

Crimean Maldives)) Feodosia is a city with the most clean beaches, covered with fine shell sand. Especially the “Golden Beach” of Feodosia - here the beach and sea are so clean that you can see every pebble on the bottom!

“Golden Beach” brings to mind the gorgeous Maldivian beaches - so wide, sandy, comfortable! You can lie on the sand even without a blanket))

I vacationed with my family in Feodosia this summer. A pleasant resort town with everything you need. At first we settled in a cottage near the sea, but after living there for several days we realized that we didn’t have enough money to live there for another 2 weeks. We bought a local newspaper ad and started looking for other, more affordable housing. We found a 2-room apartment near the city center for quite reasonable price(1.5 times cheaper than the original version). Although it was a bit far from the sea, this did not frighten us, since we were in a car. So if you want to find inexpensive housing, then you shouldn’t look for it near the sea, drive deep into the city, there are a lot of good options there.

On central beach usually very crowded, sometimes it was impossible to find a normal place. I decided to drive a little further east and look for more secluded beaches. We found the most beautiful bay, where there was no one, they rested there for the last week. This is very a nice place, it will especially appeal to lovers of solitude and tranquility.

Another little tip - choose housing in buildings where there are no cafes or restaurants on the ground floors. In the city center, almost all the first floors of houses were occupied by a variety of cafes, open until the morning. I don’t even know how people sleep there at night, music plays constantly. If you have small children, then you should look for housing away from all this resort bustle.

Advantages:

Only advantages, sea and mountains.

Flaws:

There are no such!

Details

The city is simply wonderful, I have loved it since childhood. Firstly, it is very convenient because you can get here either by bus (there is a bus station) or by train, even by plane (the airport is 120 km away), especially by car (there are no traffic jams in the city even in summer).

Secondly, the city will delight lovers of both sea holiday, there is how sea cruises, and diving, windsurfing, etc., and mountain lovers and hiking, even for amateurs extreme recreation there will be something to do here (there is everything within 10 km famous Mountain Klementyev) where you can go paragliding, hot-air balloon, airplane and even if you want to jump with a parachute. Regarding the entertainment night program, there is simply a wonderful choice for every taste, color and mood. So I recommend this wonderful, wonderful city to everyone. Have a nice holiday everyone.

Advantages:

Lots of entertainment, sea, sun, beach.

Flaws:

distance.

Good afternoon Today I want to talk about our vacation in the city of Feodosia. This was my first trip to the sea. Everything was as usual, we bought tickets and on the appointed day took our seats on the bus. We drove for about a day. Along the way, we made several stops, mostly at planned places.

We went in August, it was terribly hot, the air conditioning did not work. We drove about 2000 thousand kilometers. We crossed five regions: Kaluga, Tula, Oryol, Kursk and Belgorod. All this time we had a very friendly and pleasant female guide with us.

By the way, we arrived at the border at night; we really wanted to sleep. Instead, you had to get off the bus, grab your luggage and go to customs.

When we got to our stop, almost immediately the son of the hotel owner came to pick us up, loaded our luggage and we were off. There were four of us, my husband sat in the front seat, and I and two other tourists sat in the back. It was very crowded, it was good that it was not far to go.

We stayed at the Maria Hotel. Our room was on the third, very last floor. On the first day we were badly burned. The small window at the top of the room did not provide enough fresh air, so we used the air conditioner. On the second day of our vacation, we got sick and went to the pharmacy. True, we recovered quickly, probably it was an adaptation to the new climate. The room had a large bed, an armchair, a refrigerator, a TV and a table, as well as a shower and toilet.

Since we lived on the top floor, and the kitchen was on the first floor, it was inconvenient to run back and forth with pots. The sea was a 5 minute walk away. There was a lot of entertainment, but most of all we liked one cafe, and we often spent evenings there. It was also possible to visit a water park, excursions, and sail on a steamboat.

By the way, we attended two excursions, it was very interesting. I will definitely talk about them in another review.

See you again!!!

There are completely unequipped, natural beaches with sand or pebbles, of a mixed type in Feodosia not only outside the city, but also between landscaped areas within the city.

Wild beaches in Feodosia can often be found while walking towards Beregovoye parallel to the Kerch Highway. There are undeveloped beaches not stocked with sun loungers and umbrellas between the rental strips at 117 km (at " Scarlet Sails"and near the shopping center "Golden Beach"). Closer to Beregovoye there is a fairly famous public beach - “Suvorinskie Stones”.

One of the most picturesque wild pebble beaches of Feodosia is the shore of a small bay at Cape Chumka. This is the southeastern outskirts of the resort, the area Fishing village. Getting to the rocky beach is not easy, so there are few vacationers on it, there are no signs resort infrastructure- privacy with nature is guaranteed.

And if in ordinary wild beaches There is no shortage, then in search of nudist beaches from Feodosia you will have to travel a considerable distance - about 14-16 km towards Ordzhonikidze, where secluded shores begin that attract local and visiting naturists.

Private beaches of Feodosia

Formally, all Feodosia beaches are free. However, some areas of the coast have a special status, and access to them is limited: as a rule, these are therapeutic beaches of sanatoriums and children's camps.

Thus, the beach of the Feodosia Military Sanatorium remains closed to outsiders. This beach is pebble, fenced, and is positioned as healing beach for vacationers in the sanatorium, it has its own first-aid post.

The sandy children's beach of the Aivazovsky sanatorium is also surrounded by a fence with a warning sign that entry for outsiders is prohibited. However, the entrance to the beach is not strictly controlled; ordinary vacationers also enter it.

The small beach at the Fort Knox Hotel is private and closed, and in the evening entrance to the club territory of the beach complex at 117 km of the Kerch Highway is limited. In general, the proportion of hotel and sanatorium beaches available only to guests in Feodosia is negligible compared to the expanse of publicly accessible coastline.

In the southeast Crimean peninsula The city of Feodosia is located, known as a major trading port and, of course, an excellent resort, which has traditionally been chosen by a huge number of family vacationers. Developed tourism infrastructure and its favorable location are just some of the reasons for the popularity of Feodosia as a resort. People come here not only to relax, but also to improve their health. This is facilitated by ionized sea air, as well as the presence of resources in the form of healing silt mud and natural mineral waters.

The clearest sea gentle sun, favorable climate and rich historical heritage of the region attract tourists here not only in summer, but throughout the year. The population of Feodosia exceeds 68,500 people, but during the “peak” season this number increases significantly. Many choose this resort for a family holiday, but there are no less cheerful groups of young people here, as well as elderly people who stay not in Feodosia hotels, but in sanatoriums and boarding houses. No one will be bored here, because in addition to numerous beaches, cafes, restaurants and amusement parks, you will find vibrant parties in bars and nightclubs and, of course, a rich and interesting excursion program. People in Feodosia love sports, because hang gliding and sailing regatta competitions are held here, but that’s not all! The resort quite often hosts festivals of various types, including theater, music, wine and many others. The nature of Feodosia is incredibly beautiful; once you are here, surrounded by mountains and southern vegetation, you will feel like you are in a fairy tale.

If we talk about Greater Feodosia, in addition to the city of Feodosia itself, it includes several resort villages:

If we talk about the beaches of Feodosia, they are completely different. So, here you will see wide beaches with rich golden sand and small shells, the so-called “silver” beach in Fox Bay, which got its name thanks to the sand with fine gravel, as well as pebble beaches in the bays of Kara-Dag. Among the latter, the beaches of Carnelian Bay, which are covered with colored pebbles, deserve special attention. A characteristic feature of the beaches of Bolshaya Feodosia is that they are wide and shallow, for this reason people often stay at this resort with small children. It is worth noting that there is a Dolphinarium in Karadag Bay, so here you can not only swim to your heart’s content, but also see a bright and colorful show with the participation of dolphins, fur seals and other inhabitants of the Black Sea.

These include sanatoriums and boarding houses, recreation centers, mini-hotels, apartments and much more. Moreover, here you can find both budget accommodation and book a room in a 4-star hotel, on the territory of which there are several restaurants and bars, a SPA complex and other services.

Feodosia is one of the most famous cities of Crimea. The city is ancient, founded in the 6th century BC. e. Greeks! Like this. It has rich history, is often mentioned in the literature. Feodosia gave us the great marine painter Ivan Aivazovsky. In general, the city is not easy.

But one day Feodosia was very unlucky. In 1892 they opened here railway, and a few years later the port. Since 100 years ago no one thought about what could come of the city good resort, then the piece of iron was laid in the simplest way - along the embankment! Today the most valuable, beautiful part of the city is cut by the railway. This is what it looks like:

Horror. And it’s not clear what to do about it. It is impossible to close the road - it goes to the port. Moving it to another location would be hellishly expensive. In such cases, sometimes the railway is buried underground, but this is also expensive and it is not clear whether it is technically possible to do this on the shore.

Feodosia has already been cut off by railroads for more than 100 years. It's a pity for a good city.

01. The station is empty now, there are almost no trains.

02. Previously, it was possible to come to Feodosia from Moscow.

03. The port is also in resort town looks strange.

04. Several historical quarters have been preserved in the city center

This place used to be

05. Unfortunately, barbarians do not preserve antiquity.

06. The remnants of the Soviet period are also gradually dying under the greed of businessmen

07. In the very center there is now such squalor. Like a monument to the barbarians.

08. View of the Alexander Green Museum

09. The city center is quite nice, although not much has been preserved. The city suffered greatly during the war.

10.

11. Terrible semi-pedestrian street in the center. Why terrible? Some ridiculous lanterns, benches and amenities.

12. For some reason it was not closed completely, and now cars are parked on the sidewalks. In general, not much good

13. EdRa office. The barbarians installed air conditioners on the historical building. Should barbarians be expected to respect the city? Don't think.

14. The embankment is cut into two parts by the railway. This is the upper part, then behind the bushes there is a piece of iron, then another embankment.
