The water temperature in Anapa - it's time to swim?

If you prefer a beach vacation, then it's best, of course, to plan your vacation for the summer. So, for example, the water temperature in Anapa at this time rises to a mark of +25 degrees, while in May it usually does not exceed +17. But in recent years, residents and guests of Anapa, however, like other Black Sea resorts, have noticed a tendency to an "elevated" water temperature of the Black Sea in the "summer" spring month. In 2013, the third decade of May was also marked by a warmer sea than usual during this period. On May 25, a record water temperature was recorded in Anapa, namely +21 degrees. It should be noted that this is the average figure of September, which is traditionally considered to be "velvet" in this resort.

As a rule, when we are already "on suitcases" when leaving for vacation, we are interested in the water temperature in the Black Sea. Anapa, incidentally, is in very good terms among tourists on these indicators. It is a resort town on the picturesque Black Sea coast, which is located at the junction of the Kuban-Azov lowland and the Greater Caucasus. Its area is about 98 thousand hectares, where more than 132 thousand people live permanently.

The beaches of Anapa, without exaggeration, are known throughout Russia. Their total length is about 80 kilometers. And the pebbly beaches of the High Coast, Minor Bay, state sanctuaries of Small and Large Utrishch are considered the best even among most European beaches. Of course, when the whole rest comes down to sunbathing and bathing, most of all the tourist is interested in the water temperature. Anapa, as mentioned above, as a rule, does not disappoint anyone by these indicators. The sub-Mediterranean soft and humid climate, stable atmospheric pressure, a large number of sunny days a year (an average of 280) - these factors allow the resort city to declare the swimming season in May, and finish in October, when the average water temperature in Anapa drops to + 16 degrees.

This city is not in vain considered the largest resort in Russia. Hundreds of hotels, boarding houses, sanatoriums and hotels of all possible classes and levels are ready to meet tourists all year round, no matter what the water temperature in Anapa is. In fact, except for beach rest, this region provides unique opportunities for treatment and prevention of various diseases.

Anapa is a unique climatic, mud, water and balneological resort of its kind. Rehabilitation centers of the following directions are successfully working here: psychotherapy and pulmonology, allergology and diabetes, neurology and urology. In addition, sanatoriums, in which they help to reduce weight and purify the body of radioactive isotopes or salts of heavy metals, are very popular among holidaymakers.

But even if you do not use the services of medical institutions, which in the city abound, the very stay in Anapa has a beneficial effect on the person's health. Fresh mountain-steppe air, therapeutic mud and mineral waters, seaweeds and healing water really do wonders.
