Description, location
The "Sunny Paradise" is located in close proximity to. From here it is 100 meters to the Knights' Beach, so if for some reason you don't want to stay here anymore. For example, there is a desire to actively spend time, you can always move to another site.
The coastline is fenced, at the entrance there is a sign with the name, rules and features. It has all the benefits of civilization, including: sheds, bins, toilets, showers and changing rooms. Naturists themselves carefully protect "their corner", keep clean and tidy. They are wary of ordinary onlookers who entered the beach for the sake of banal interest.
If you are worried that someone will start to cling or insult - come from 10 to 17.00. At this time, cultured people gather here, simply preferring to swim naked. Among the services provided on the territory of the nudist beach, the rental of sun loungers and umbrellas is especially popular.
There is also an opportunity to buy chips, ice cream, soft drinks. Another point - no one forbids swimming in swimsuits. So if you just want to have a good rest on sandy shore away from noisy companies - go here. By the way, beach strip and the sea is clean. This became possible thanks to the responsible attitude of the vacationers themselves to the chosen place. And the absence of a huge number of holidaymakers.

In the city center, in the park. Frunze, the beach is located "General". The minus of the beach is its crowdedness: to get to the sea, you need to step almost on other people's things.

There is a nudist beach near Knight's "Sunny Paradise". It is landscaped, you can use sunbeds and umbrellas, buy food.
Wild beaches are located outside the city: in the villages of Popovka, Vitino, Coastal and Storm. The popularity of these beaches was not affected by the lack of service, the reasons for this are the purest water, a gently sloping sandy bottom and a picturesque landscape. Those who are looking for a quiet, peaceful holiday away from the noisy city come here.
Evpatoria - small town on the Black Sea coast. It barely has a hundred thousand inhabitants. But about a million tourists come there. This is one of the largest European medical complex centers. This mud resort is considered one of the best in the world. Therefore, rest here can be combined with the treatment of the upper respiratory tract, the musculoskeletal system, and the cardiovascular system. But Evpatoria is most famous for its beaches.
Fine golden sand, in which there are semi-precious stones. According to legend, it was here that the famous Hercules improved his health after cleansing the Augean stables. During excavations in this area, several objects depicting an ancient hero were discovered. On them, he does not perform his famous feats, but simply reclines with a bowl, as a real spa visitor should behave. Therefore, it is his monument that adorns the embankment of Evpatoria. And here you can often hear the following phrase: “For exploits - the whole world. For recreation - Evpatoria. Photos of the beaches of Evpatoria cannot convey all the beauty of these paradise. They are ideal for relaxation.
What is the rest in Evpatoria?
This city was founded about two and a half thousand years ago by the Greeks. This is one of ancient cities world, it was mentioned by Herodotus, Pliny, Ptolemy. Own modern name Evpatoria received when the Crimea was annexed to Russia at the end of the 18th century. In translation, it means "blessed". Near it are the lakes Sasyk - Sivash and Moinak. They are known all over the world medicinal properties silt and brine. There is another famous lake - Donuzlav. Its depth is 27 meters. Its bottom is covered with a ten-meter layer of therapeutic mud.
Well, the main thing for which vacationers go is the sea. The city stretched along the sea for 14 kilometers. And all coastline wide beaches and sandy embankments. And the Kalamnitsky Bay, where this locality, it is 25 kilometers of velvety golden sand. The smooth bottom gradually descends from the shore into the depths of the sea.
There are practically no ebbs and flows. In the city of Evpatoria, the beaches are great for families with small children. The water is a little unclear due to the sand, but it is thanks to this sand that the beaches are called golden, velvet, silver, pearl. And all due to the fact that grains of sand are small fragments of shells, they do not form dust. Pebbles and stones are extremely rare. Many beaches are equipped with special slopes for people with disabilities. All this is done thanks to the program "City without barriers".
There is only one official nudist beach in Evpatoria. It is called very romantically "Sunny Paradise". It is paid, but this price includes all beach services. Sunbeds, umbrellas. On other beaches, they charge an additional fee for this.
On its territory you can buy water and ice cream. It is visited mainly by naturists, but if you come there in a bathing suit, no one will kick you out. Democracy and tolerance prevail here. But although it is generally accepted that there is only one nudist beach in the city, nevertheless, girls sunbathing topless can often be seen on any other beaches. Moreover, the sun and the Mediterranean climate are quite conducive to this.
And the climate here is really wonderful, it can be compared with the climate of the north of Italy or the south of France. The sun shines over the city 258 days a year. This is much more than in Sukhumi and Yalta. There are no frequent storms here, only 9 days for the whole season. No sudden drop in temperature. Evpatoria is famous for its temperature uniformity sea water. In summer it is + 22 degrees. Autumn is warm and dry, during the summer the sea accumulates heat, giving it away in autumn and warming the air. Therefore, Evpatoria autumn, the most best time in a year. Winter is mild and snowless, there are also frosty days, but they are usually rare and short-lived. Therefore, often in December you can meet blooming roses. Since the Kalamnitsky Bay is relatively shallow, the water in it begins to warm up in spring, much earlier than anywhere else on south coast Crimea. The swimming season begins in mid-May and lasts until mid-October.
Let's have a little sightseeing tour along the beaches of Evpatoria for tourists who prefer to relax near the water.
City beaches of Evpatoria
Today in Evpatoria there are six communal city free beaches. All of them are under the control of the communal enterprise "Kurzal". These are the beaches located at the addresses of the streets - Polupanov, 1, Gorky Street (the sanatorium "Victory"), Gorky Embankment, "Sports Beach" on Simferopolskaya Street, the beach on the street. Simferopolskaya, 2, beach on Lake Moinaki KP "Panacea". All six recreation areas are free and equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable stay on the coast.
At the peak of the beach season, places on this beach are occupied from the early morning. The coastal strip is not wide, and every year the sea washes away part of the beach area, making it even narrower.
The beach is landscaped, there are changing cabins and showers, sunbeds and sun loungers. The territory of the beach extends from the boarding house "Zolotoy Bereg" to " water world", occupying almost the entire coast of the central city park. Frunze.
This is one of the few central beaches on which wellness and therapeutic measures are deployed. Pressure is measured, masseurs work at the service of vacationers.
Further along the coast towards the military sanatorium of the Ministry of Defense stretched another small beach, also equipped with everything necessary for swimming and sunbathing. Amusements and entertainment complexes are deployed on the territory.
This place of rest attracts lovers of rocky day and concrete slabs on the shore. The place, it would seem, is not ennobled for a full-fledged beach holiday, but there are also enough tourists who love to sunbathe on the stoves. Day and night people come down here to bathe and relax, ignoring the warnings of the lifeguards.
"Solaris"
Excellent city beach with modern infrastructure. This is one of the few places of rest, where almost everything is provided for the services of vacationers. Sun loungers, sun loungers and umbrellas, numerous catering places and even a left-luggage office. Of the recreational activities on the water - riding a banana, a parachute and a bun, high inflatable slides descending to the waters of the warm sea.
And, of course, many visitors cannot but rejoice that the beach is open around the clock. If you like to soak up the waters of the Black Sea, looking at the sunset or the moonlit path - this beach is for you. You can get to the territory by passing from the city along Simferopolskaya street.

The paid category includes almost all beach areas belonging to sanatoriums and resorts. Somewhere the payment will be symbolic - 15-20 rubles, and somewhere the passage to the beach is only the sanatorium book of the resident. Such beaches are always kept in perfect cleanliness - the sand on them is sifted from debris, and special smoking areas are reserved for smokers.
Beach "Cote d'Azur" in Evpatoria
This paid beach is located on the western coast of Evpatoria, not far from the beach "Magnat". The wide coastal zone allows cars to drive on it. modern infrastructure and a large number of entertainment complexes often mislead tourists. The excellent beach service gives reason to believe that the prices for all services are too high, but this is not so. This is one of the few beach areas, which, despite the landscaped area, has left quite reasonable prices for all types of services.
The gently sloping bottom and wide sandy strip of the beach allows a fairly large number of vacationers to accommodate here, without crowding and without interfering with each other. And at the rental office you can rent sun loungers, umbrellas and air mattresses. Massive pavilions are placed along the coast for people who cannot be under the scorching southern sun all day.
Evpatoria is perhaps one of the first cities in Crimea to officially open a well-maintained nudist beach in the city center. The beach area is located in the area of Simferopolskaya street towards the city of Saki, next to the well-known to the townspeople beach "Knight".
Nudist beach is included in the territory of the beach "Sunny Paradise". This place for naturists and nudists is fenced off so as not to attract curious people to the peculiarities of their holiday. At the entrance to the zone, a sign is posted that orients visitors to the features of recreation on this beach, so tourists visiting these places are well aware of this place on the Black Sea coast.
The beach is landscaped, showers, sheds and urns, perfectly clean sand - these are the main features of this beach. Despite the fact that the beach is paid, the cost of passage to it is quite symbolic. Last season, it barely reached 20 rubles.
Hearing reviews about this beach, you may have a rather controversial opinion, however, a small number of people who support this direction, clean sand and the sea speak for themselves. The visit is recommended from 10 am to 5 pm. It is at this time that a decent contingent gathers here and there is no place for indecent jokes and mockery of others. 
The naturists and nudists themselves appreciate and love their little corner of relaxation, maintaining order and cleanliness on it and being jealous of visitors who visit this place more out of curiosity.

It was an unforgettable vacation that left warm memories in our hearts. In my opinion, the quality of rest depends primarily on your mood, and the company with which you are going to spend this time.
First impression , which I had: Where did I get to?) It seemed that time was frozen here for 95 years.
Yevpatoria is a small city, which is located on the coast, and is completely strewn with a variety of beaches. The inhabitants of the city are called Evpatorians, and makes me associate with something cosmic. It is believed that this city is more than 2500 thousand years old. Climatic conditions so favorable that they began to build children's boarding houses here, and bring people who need to improve their health. I was surprised that this winter the temperature reached minus 16, I thought that in these parts there are no such cold weather, and they go without hats, but as it turned out, I was very mistaken. Given the fact that there is high humidity, this minus was just stunning cold for the locals. (from the lips of the residents). The city itself consists of several parts, one part is old, there are low houses, intricate streets, and a paved road.
Another is more touristy, where the famous Frunze Street is located, with clubs, cafes, and just beaches.
And there is also a part with new buildings.
The city is quite small, and most of it we walked around. In my opinion, there you can stop at almost any building, and a bush, for good photos, many sights, monuments, and simply beautiful places!
When we got tired of wandering, we took minibuses, the prices for which are more than democratic, the price of a ride in a gazelle is 13 rubles, and even less than 11 rubles in a tram, which certainly pleased us. This is where the cheap prices ended) A taxi costs about 300 rubles, but these are only those that stand on the street and invite customers themselves. Local residents call a taxi through operators.
There are no problems with housing in the city, very often you can meet people with signs in their hands offering housing, especially there are many of them in the center and near train stations.
In cost our trip included travel in both directions, and accommodation, so upon arrival we went in search of grocery stores. We lived in the hostel Magistral, on Kirov Street 81, this is a tourist area, where there are many sanatoriums, and within walking distance of the beach is about 800 m. A single word, the place of our residence. This is an ordinary building, from the times of the USSR, our room reminded me of a camp, three beds in a row, simple cabinets, a table, a couple of poufs, thank God, a refrigerator, and a shower with a toilet. After the usual Turkey and Egypt, at first it seems like some kind of nightmare, especially when you see the bedding sewn as if from napkins and the bedspreads on the beds like a grandmother's carpet. And then you get used to it, and you understand that all this is good, but not the main thing. Again, the main thing is your attitude). So, as soon as we moved away from the primary, domestic shock, we decided that we needed to buy food so that we had something to have breakfast. There are not many supermarkets in the city, but still they are. The largest one is called "Fresh", quite expensive, with a more familiar range of products. And "PUD", in which prices are lower, only the choice is much smaller. Getting from the place of residence to the store did not cause any problems, public transport, goes often. But only until 9pm. Then he just disappeared)) And only rare evening gazelles passed by.
There is a local market where all sweets, things, fruits, products are much cheaper. To be honest, walking there is a pleasure. Choose something for yourself and for your loved ones. Most often they buy as a gift, seasonings, baklava, and nuts filled with honey. Fish, for some reason in the city where they are caught, costs space money. And correspondingly fish market empty, guests come in, but very rarely go out with a purchase. Sellers are very unhappy with this.
I noticed that many locals are not friendly, and even aggressive. This was surprising, because it is the holiday season that provides income for winter accommodation.
It seemed to us that there were only visitors everywhere. There are a lot of children, couples, unfortunately a lot of sick people in wheelchairs. Walking along the evening embankment, it seemed that everything was aimed at children's recreation, but like gazelles, after 9-10, children disappeared from the streets, and young people appeared))) On weekdays, almost all nightclubs are empty, except for one called " LYON. They include absolutely any music. On order, from Leps to Nirvana, just pay money. That's where everyone flocked.
If there are a lot of lanterns and various lighting on the embankment, then the situation in the city changes to the opposite. And in some places. There is no light, and we moved only with a lantern.
Starting Friday, everything changes, visitors and locals mix. And almost everyone hangs out, in the famous club, WHITE. A pleasant club, with an interesting interior, without glazing and blank walls. With its white atmosphere, packed to the limit and buzzing until the morning. If you are looking for entertainment like us, then you should go there.
I want to note that only in this city, I saw the stars so well. And to my extreme surprise that the star was falling, the local guys answered: “It's August!”: a completely normal phenomenon for them. It struck me, because before, I had never seen such beauty, and even more so shooting stars. In my well-lit city, this is a luxury.
There are almost no rules of the road here, I still didn’t understand how they drive, and when I was fastening my seat belt in a taxi, I met the driver’s surprised look, and an offer not to do this.
As I said, the whole city is solid beaches. And every day we went to a new one. One of the most popular, "Cote d'Azur". Entrance there costs 30 rubles, clean sand, many people, many paid services. Sun loungers, rides, cafes, and a bunch of everything. True wi-fi, catches at a very short distance, with varying degrees of success. On the opposite side of the beach mud lake Moinaki. It smells terrible, but seeing how everyone bathes and smears there, they also decided to do it. It was not very pleasant, the mud was hot, burning, and slimy.
After standing for about 7 minutes, we began to wash off, and it turned out that we were all covered with red spots, or stains, I don’t even know what to call it. They quickly passed, but the sediment remained)))
Even after a shower, with gel, the smell of therapeutic mud did not leave me. I decided that I would not be so healthy again. And after we were told that it used to be the most criminal area in the city, and workers were drowned there, we made a collective decision to finish mud therapy. Moreover, it turned out that due to the fact that no one followed them, this lake lost its healing properties. Do not understand me that I am intimidating someone, I am only writing what I managed to find out.
Another famous beach, Beach number 1, here it struck me. The entrance is free, and it is less crowded, it is half sandy, and near the sea there are small pebbles, insanely beautiful, smooth.
They often play volleyball and smoke hookah there. There are the most beautiful blue gazebos, (paid), which look magical against the background of the transparent sea.
He conquered me with his silence, simplicity, you really relax there. And you feel relaxed.
Almost on all beaches, there are changing rooms, cafes, showers, and a toilet with this there is no problem. I told you about the most famous and visited.
I called this resort, Services without services. The fact is that everything that we bought there as excursions and entertainment was so Soviet, so poorly organized, and done carelessly. What was our excursion worth, on a gazelle, bought in the city center, where we were first brought to a free place to feed the swans.
We took a lot of photos.
Then we went to the excavations,
where our narrator made it clear that he was doing everything in order to have at least some money for his work, did not hesitate and collected money from tourists right in front of other groups. His carelessness in this matter was not liked, and many lost interest in what he told. But fireworks, it turned out that they brought us to the third point and just showed us salt lake from the window of a gazelle))) Slightly seasoning everything with a meager history of its origin.
We visited big water park at the entrance to the city, called "Banana republic". The entrance fee depends on the time starting from 10 am it is 1800, then it is cheaper. It's nice that they drive from the water park free buses You have to wait on time at certain stops. The water park itself is big and colorful, there are old and new slides.
On the old ones, you need to lift it yourself, a cheesecake for riding, on the new ones, a lift works. We were terribly unlucky, and on the day we arrived there, it was extremely cold. It was simply unbearable to stand in line at a height, people stood with blue lips, shaking from the cold. The queues are huge, they had to stand on one hill for 10-15 minutes. I strongly advise you to choose warmer days, it is all open, and it does not have the usual warm Jacuzzi to warm up.
There is another small water park in the city, it seemed to us that it is more for children.
Having decided to go to the Crimea, be prepared, no one will entertain you there, and you need to deal with this issue yourself. In the evenings on weekdays, they often met young people who did not know what to do with themselves, and in appearance they were clearly very bored.
Our holiday was amazing, fun moving. We walked around the whole city, got acquainted with the history of this place, with its life, with the life of the locals. There is no comfort and service in Europe, but there is sincerity, simplicity, real relaxation, and the cleanest sea. It is so beautiful! Meeting the dawn sitting on the pier, I understood why so many people go to improve their emotional and physical health at sea. There is some kind of mystical power in it that calls you to come to these places over and over again, which makes you leave a piece of your heart in it ...
