How to organize outdoor recreation in the summer

Swimming areas for children and people who cannot swim will be set up on Moscow beaches.

"It (the site) will be located no further than 15 meters from the coastline, and then it will have a smooth decrease from 1.2 to two meters in depth. Then there will be buoys," he said. Vasily Maryan emphasized that water transport it is forbidden to approach special zones at a distance closer than 50 meters.

In recent years, swimming in the capital has become safer. Over the past five years, the number of accidents at water bodies in the city has fallen three times - from 413 to 140, said Vladimir Volkov, chief state inspector for small boats in Moscow. Last year, not a single person drowned on the official beaches in Moscow. And over the past 10 years, more than 95 percent of those who drowned died in places where swimming is prohibited.

Four services monitor water safety in Moscow:

  • State Inspectorate for Small Vessels (69 people, 18 patrol boats),
  • Moscow City Search and Rescue Service on water bodies (500 people. Of these, 150 are divers, and 75 rescuers are on duty around the clock),
  • Public lifeguards (More than 900 people),
  • Balance holders of water bodies.
On the eve of summer in the capital, some routes land transport. It is expected that the new routes will make it easier for Muscovites to get to city beaches and parks. According to tradition, by the summer the number of passengers in these areas increases by about a third.

Since May 1, seasonal buses have entered the route in Zelenograd. Route No. 403 will take passengers to the village of Sokolovo, and No. 408 to the village of Kholmy. These buses will run until November.

Reservoirs of Moscow, waiting for bathers and bathers

In May, Rospotrebnadzor checked the water bodies of Moscow, examining the quality of the water in them. Divers studied the bottom of ponds and reservoirs, checking for waste and construction debris, experts took water samples. The results of the research showed what kind of reservoirs are suitable for safe "diving" and long bathing.

There are more natural reservoirs in Moscow suitable for sunbathing - 125 . But you can only swim in 9 of them.

The cleanest were rightfully recognized and. But, on the contrary, those affected by the fishermen, who often spend their winter leisure here, -, and. They have to be sorted out.

We remind you that the beaches of the capital are waiting for visitors daily from 9:00 to 22:00 from June 1 to September 1. But these are only formalities - officially they open when the water reaches 18 degrees.

So, the reservoirs of Moscow, where you can not only bask in the sun on the beach, but also swim:

And modern video surveillance systems will allow you to respond with lightning speed and come to the rescue.

You can't swim in the fountains of Moscow

The number of fountains in Moscow is growing faster than the number of water bodies where swimming is allowed. Therefore, in order not to travel far, people prefer to cool off right in the fountains.

In Spain and Italy, it has even become a tradition to climb into the fountain together after another hot football match.

Attention, Rospotrebnadzor prohibits swimming in the fountains of Moscow.

  • First of all, the water in them circulates in a vicious circle.
  • Secondly the water is not purified.

So, if a dog or a sick person swam there before you, all microbes will remain in this water.
