It has already happened more than once that our friends asked us for advice at different times of the year, but where is the best place to go now? And what about the rains now? What is the weather like in...? Well, and so on. To make life easier for myself and for all of you, I have collected here the most attractive destinations and countries where it is better to relax in each particular month.

The set of recommendations below is general, and for each country you must then look at the weather forecast separately and read the climate features of the place and beach where you are going. The information was collected based on reviews from the forums, because the websites of travel agencies and tour operators often contain complete nonsense, like the best thing to do in August is to relax in Egypt (there is incredible heat!)

I want to draw your attention to the fact that there are such magical places in the world where you can relax all year round, for example, in Thailand in Pattaya, Cha-am, Hua Hin. Or in the Canaries on the island of Tenerife, where the weather is favorable all year round. Or so loved by all the beautiful Maldives. Therefore, I will not mention them every month.

Where is the best place to relax in January

If you want to sunbathe and swim in the sea, the most the best place- these are Asian beaches (Indonesia, Bali, Thailand (Phuket, Krabi, Phi Phi, etc.), Malaysia, India, Goa, Sri Lanka, Maldives, Seychelles, UAE) or beaches caribbean(Dominican Republic, Cuba, Tahiti, etc.)

You can also rush to Egypt or Tunisia, but keep in mind that it will be just comfortably warm there for walking, but not for swimming or sunbathing.

When planning your trip, don't forget that January is a holiday month and it's best to buy all your tickets in advance.

Where is the best place to relax in February

The hottest countries this month are Thailand (Phuket, Krabi, Phi Phi, Chang), Cambodia and their closest neighbors Myanmar, Malaysia, the Philippines. Vietnam is also good, especially for surfers, because there big waves. You can try to go to Bali, although there is still a risk of getting into the rainy season. You can also go to countries a little to the west, for example, the United Arab Emirates, Goa, Sri Lanka or the Maldives.

Starting in February, Europe is slowly opening its doors, and already in February you can arrange a sightseeing trip to the south of Italy.

And you can have a good rest in the Canary Islands. Or choose an even more western direction and relax in February in another hemisphere, for example, in the Caribbean.

Where is the best place to relax in March

From the East Asian countries, you can choose Bali, where in June it is not so humid and there is no rain, or Thailand (O. Samui, O. Tao, O. Koh Phangan). I would warn you against trips to other Asian and South African countries - it is too hot there during this period. As well as in the Caribbean, although many at this time still travel to the Dominican Republic.

Turkey: All Inclusive and Nothing Off

One of the goals of our site is to dispel misconceptions. One of the delusions Russian tourists– that Turkey was “closed” and now it is allegedly “opened”. Dear friends! Nothing like that: Turkey has always been open, visa-free and one of the cheapest countries where you can relax at sea abroad inexpensively. It was only forbidden to sell package tours there. More details in our articles:

Therefore, we advise you to look for hotels not through Booking, but through hotel search engine Hotellook- it compares prices for the same hotels in different booking systems and gives you the best options for the price. In addition, Hotellook, unlike Booking, gives you the opportunity to sort all-inclusive hotels. When you select a hotel, Hotellook will take you to the booking engine website (Booking.com, Agoda.com, Ostrovok.ru, etc.) where the booking takes place.

Find out where you can cheaply relax at sea in the summer of 2019 abroad and in Russia! We have chosen the most popular destinations for a holiday by the sea and for everyone counted cost index. It will help you understand where to rest is cheap and where is expensive. Compare indexes, choose a resort and fly on a vacation on a budget.

How do we calculate the index?

We calculate two indexes of the cost of rest: for vacationers on a tour and for independent tourists.

Tour rest index. For each destination we find the cheapest tours for two for 10 days. To the cost of the tour per person, we add the cost of a visa (if necessary). The result is divided by 10. We get the cost of rest per day per person.

Independent travel index. We sum up the main expenses of the tourist and divide by 10:

  • Air tickets. We are looking for the cheapest round-trip flight from Moscow. Tickets can be without luggage and with transfers.
  • Housing. We find double rooms at the lowest price, we do not consider hostels. Calculation per person for 10 days.
  • Visa (if needed).

What do we not consider? Meals, transportation, excursions, etc. - these expenses are individual, they are difficult to calculate. Our index does not reflect all the costs of a trip, but allows you to compare the cost of a holiday by base points.

Why are tickets and tours only from Moscow considered? Firstly, most tourists fly from the capital on vacation. Secondly, the cheapest tickets and tours are usually from Moscow. If we count the indexes for departures from all cities of Russia, the review will surpass "War and Peace" in terms of volume.

And even cheaper? Can! In some cases, your vacation will cost even less than according to our calculations. You will save if:

  • find a cheap one or ;
  • you already have and you are going to Europe;
  • fly for a holiday in the low season.

Prices have been updated for the summer season 2019 and are indicated in Russian rubles. Indices for European countries are duplicated in euros, for Asia - in US dollars.

Exchange rate: 1 US dollar ≈ 65 RUB.

Where there are fewer tourists to relax and swim

As a rule, in such places there are few cafes and shops nearby. But if you choose the right hotel, then everything will be right there: beach accessories, delicious food, wine… Calm beaches and the cleanest sea is easy to find in and in some.

And now our list of the best places to go to the sea in Russia:

Many do not even suspect that there are such magnificent places in Russia! Away from the hustle and bustle, where there are not so many tourists yet, the beaches are sandy, the sunsets are amazing, and comfortable housing is located right next to the sea - yes, a vacation on the Sea of ​​​​Azov surprises even seasoned tourists who are used to relaxing only abroad.

How to get to Sea of ​​Azov? By plane - to Anapa airport. Then by taxi, but cheaper: from Vityazevo airport get to the city bus station in Anapa, then by bus to the Fontalovskaya station (this is the sea in Kuchugury).

Private sector and hotels on the Sea of ​​Azov, prices 2019

Rooms in the private sector cost 600-1200 rubles per day for the whole family. There aren't many good places to live, so best options book in advance. However, if cleanliness and convenience are not critical for you on vacation, then you can easily find many options on the spot.

Advice We went-Know
Be carefull! If you want to have a good rest, then plan your holiday in advance! Gone are the days when it was possible to rent a good room in the private sector upon arrival - such accommodation is booked several weeks in advance. And on the spot, now you can only rent “illiquid assets” (), which they cannot sell out in advance and are slipped to slow tourists.

How to rent good housing in the private sector and not fall for scammers

Do not trust ads on forums and social networks! usually show good photos, and upon arrival they say that it is already occupied, and they offer housing much worse - this is the most common type of fraud in the south of Russia. You only need to shoot verified sites with real reviews - the only way you are guaranteed to get what you book.

For example, private sector in Golubitskaya - the house "Fairy Tale" - cheap, comfortable, clean, in the courtyard there is a playground:


There are better hotels too. If you are with a car, then choose with your own beach and away from the crowds of tourists.

7. Rest on the sea in Abkhazia - cheap and comfortable!

For those who have read up to this point - we tell about the best place to go in Russia to the sea. Abkhazia is not in the first place on our list only because it is not quite Russia, it is nearby :) In all other respects, this is the best place where you can go to the sea with a Russian passport. Passport is not needed, rubles are in use, locals speak Russian.

In Abkhazia, prices are lower, and seaside holidays are more comfortable. There are much more chances to find good beaches and clear sea. In addition, there are fewer tourists on the sea in Abkhazia - the main thing is to drive away from Sukhumi to resort places, and then you can find a very inexpensive vacation by the sea. Right on the beach!

How to get to Abkhazia

From Moscow or St. Petersburg directly to Sukhumi can be inexpensively reached by train. On the road 38 and 45 hours.
Or from another city in Russia by train or plane to Sochi (Adler) airport, and from there trains and buses go to Sukhumi, the journey takes 2-3 hours.

If you are driving on your own or through a checkpoint at the border across the Psou River, just get out and show your passport and documents for the car. Leave - through the same checkpoint. There are no difficulties at the border, a pure formality.

Where to stay

There are not many modern accommodation options in Abkhazia, mostly the “soviet” private sector, which is easy to book upon arrival. However, there are also quite good guest houses and even excellent cheap hotels, but it is better to book them in advance in order to get a civilized one for the price of a “wild” vacation. It's possible! Here are some options.

For starters, you can stay near the city of Sukhumi and close to the sea - in guest house"Rufina" - cheap, but quite comfortable.

We go further, where there are fewer tourists, and we find the Alamys guest house, ideal in terms of price and quality (see photos, reviews and prices), is conveniently located in the resort of Gudauta, near the Black Sea. There are comfortable sun loungers on the beach and there are no other tourists nearby. Clean sea, delicious food. You can admire the sea around the clock from the balcony of the room - you won’t be able to find anything like it on the first line by the sea in Sochi or Lazarevsky.


Sea holidays in Abkhazia - guest house "Alamys"

Beyond the sea in Abkhazia beautiful nature, delicious wine and food. And the prices! Probably such low prices there is nowhere else to go to the seaside in Russia. Even a hotel with three meals a day costs 2 times cheaper than in Russia.

Napra in Abkhazia - an inexpensive recreation center with three meals a day

If on vacation you don’t want to think about where to eat, just go to the recreation center “Napra” and relax:
