Tourists are often wondering: how many seas are muttered by Turkey And in which of these seas we bathe during the rest?

In this small Map it's clear that Turkey is washed by 4 seas : Black, Marble, Aegeanas part Mediterranean.

Black Sea coast of Turkey which is opposite southern Shore Crimea - from the border with Georgia and to Istanbul, is little used in tourist purposes. Here are relatively cold water and the depth is growing rapidly from the beach. Only in mid-August waters are heated to +24, but the constancy of such a temperature depends on the wind and flows.

Basically, locals are resting on the Black Sea, in Sinop resorts, Trabzon and Horde. The coast is covered with pebbles, the beaches are not wide due to relief. The widest beaches in the flat western part of the Black Sea coast of Turkey, closer to Istanbul, closer to Georgia, the terrain of mountainous and beaches are narrow. But in general, this place is not very popular, there are much more suitable places in Turkey.

Next comes relatively small, which is completely in Turkey and shares its territory to European and Asian. It begins with the Bosphorus Strait in the Istanbul area, which bind the Black Sea with the rest of the ocean. Here is Istanbul - large citywhich is in Asia and Europe at the same time. High rocky shores of the Marmara Sea are not entirely adapted for a beach holiday. In addition to Istanbul on the coast of this sea are the cities of Bursa and Izmit. The sea ends with the long and narrow strait of Dardanelles, which binds the marble sea with the Mediterranean. The most suitable for rest and clean beaches on this sea, oddly enough - in the area of \u200b\u200bIstanbul (Princes of Islands)

Usually, in search of sparkling water and snow-white beaches under the bright sun and snow-white beaches go to the resorts of Mediterranean and Aegean Morese. Istanbul for beach recreation is considered either locals, or tourists who do not plan to specifically go to seaside resort.

Sea Element in Istanbul

Self famous city Istanbul is incredibly lucky. We can say that it is washed by the water at once of the two seas. Rather, it is built on the coast of the Marmara Sea and on the shores of the Bosphorus Bay, which connects the Black and Marmara Sea. To the Black Sea, located north of the city, you have to go about an hour.

The beaches of the Marmara Sea are within Istanbul. This sea is fine, the water in it is well warmed and retains its high temperature until the beginning of October. Marble Sea in Istanbul Many tourists consider dirty, but even within the city, you can find the beaches away from the sea routes. The water off the coast here retains its transparency.

The marble sea in urban beaches has a sandy bottom, not melting dangers for vacationers. However, it should be particularly attentive to be at the bays of the Bays closest to Istanbul - Princes and Marmara. The bottom there is stony.

The Black Sea is north of marble, therefore it is considered colder. In the area of \u200b\u200bIstanbul, it bathes in it until mid-September.

The best beaches

If fate threw a tourist for several weeks in the summer in Istanbul, then you can allocate a few days of your vacation for a beach holiday.

The most famous Istanbul beaches are:

• on the Black Sea. 25 km separate the outskirts of Istanbul from Black Sea coast. From the European side of the city most popular place For recreation - this is the beaches of Kilos. Along 7. paid beaches Lined clubs, bars, taverns. You can only go to them from the sea. To do this, you need to pay for the passage to the beach. Closer to the Asian districts of the city are resort zones Shile and agves. These are country villages, where the locals are preferred to relax. Up to these beaches will have to get about an hour with several transfers;
• on the European Marmara Sea. The best beaches of this part of Istanbul are located in the Flory district, where electric trains and bus from Emineny are held. In addition to the beach with a length of 800 meters with an excellent infrastructure, here you can find an interesting aquarium. Not bad landscaped clean beach There are faces of the attacks. Do not complain about the lack of lovers of the warm sea and the town of Sillyry near Istanbul;
• on the Anatolian coast of the Marmara Sea. Since 2005, there are 3 beaches (2 free and 1 paid) in the Jaddebesta district. When the Istanbul authorities announced that the sea is suitable here for swimming, the public reacted skeptical to such a message. As evidence of his rightness, one of the officials dive into the sea during the solemn beacon opening ceremony.

What to do by the sea?

Swim in the waves of the Black and Marble Seas will quickly bother. An enterprising local residents who work in the field of tourism are perfect well. In order not to lose customers, they offer them various interesting entertainment. For example, the country clubs that are located on the seaside are incredible popularity in the country and are a complex of various establishments: here you can find wonderful bars and restaurants, a pool with a seating area, forced by sun loungers, solarium, etc. It is not necessary to miss such a club For more fun parties are constantly passing here. One of the most famous Beach clubs of Istanbul works on Galatasaray Island.

Among other marine rides, you can mark fishing or from the Galata bridge (you can ask the hotel or at local fishermen), or from the boat. On the yacht or boat you can move away from the coast to the sea and count on a more solid catch.

Istanbul stretches along the two shores of the Bosphorus - a strait, which is a connecting line between the two seas: black and marble. One side of the coast is called the European part of Istanbul, the second is Asian. Weather The city is very pleasant and soft, more resembling subtropics zone, although some signs of the continental climate are also traced.

In the summer period of time in the Turkish metropolis, heat and comfortable - the medium-sized temperature ranges from 19 to 28⁰c. But sometimes the thermometer column rises to 35⁰С.

Istanbul, probably, can be called the city of the Sun, because every year he pleases its inhabitants and guests 2 thousand sun hour. In this case, the air is almost always wet. The greatest heat is observed since the beginning of July until the end of August.

In the summer months, Istanbul turns into a tourist paradise. During this period, travelers literally come to the city of the city. Hotels and hotel complexes of Sultanahmet - the most famous historical district of the metropolis - are always filled to refusal.

June

At any time of the year, Istanbul is beautiful

In June, in Turkey, oddly enough, summer comes. But in Istanbul it is not only calendar, but also real. In the afternoon, the air warms up to a temperature of 25⁰s, and in the afternoon and is stronger - up to 30.5 ° C. During this period, the city is not just hot, but also stuffy. It is difficult to endure this weather, so people often find salvation in local green park areas, such as Emirgan or Gulkhan. By evening, the heat falls, but the thermometer bar does not fall below 17 ° C. The evening is perfect for a hike in a catering establishment, which in a huge amount can be found under the Galat Bridge. Countless cafes and restaurants offer their doors to guests to a deep night. A pleasant sea breeze can be pretty cool, so it will not be superfluous to throw the windbreaker or other light sleeves with a long sleeve. At the beginning of the first summer month, small rains are still possible, but after the first week, the sediment stops at all.

The temperature of the sea can still be called comfortable and suitable for long bathing, but in the second half of June, the Bosphorus warms up to 21.3C. So if you are going to Istanbul in this period, then it is already possible to stock up bath suites and sunscreen cosmetics. After all, Istanbul in June is a paradise place not only for connoisseurs of ancient culture and lovers to resemble museums!

July

Blue Mosque (Sultanahmet Camii)

The middle of the summer pleases the Istanbulians and guests of the city of great weather. The average daily temperature indicators ranges from 26 to 30 ° C. Of course, more hot days happen, but infrequently. At the same time, the thermometer does not fall below 22⁰c. July - wonderful time To visit local beach zones, bathing and walking in light T-shirts and T-shirts.

Evenings, nevertheless can also be cool - the proximity to the sea affects. But in any case, the air is not cooled below 20⁰.

Rainy weather in July Istanbul is a huge rarity. The preciputes are unlikely, because July is rightly called in the city the Sunny Month of the year. Strong winds that are shed, turn out to be like the way: they even refresh a little and bring cool from the sea.

August

Warm evenings have to walk in Istanbul

And in the last month of summer in Istanbul there is a heat. average temperature In the daytime - 28⁰s, but often the air is glowing to 25 ° C. Therefore, going to Istanbul in August, be sure to be equipped with protective creams, sunglasses and light heads.

But nights in the city at this time are also warm - not lower than 19 ° C. Therefore, instead of being admored to bring a warm wardrobe with you, you will ask in advance whether you will be in your hotel room Operating air conditioning. The precipitation in Istanbul during this period is unlikely - rains can go only three days a month, and then short-term periods.

Travelers who come to Istanbul need to know: whatever the heat is not the heat, it is not necessary to bargain here. Purchase easy clothing from natural, air fabrics - cotton, silk, etc. Synthetic T-shirts, blouses and shirts are better not to wear - it is fraught with overheating and strongest irritation on the skin.

Women defining the question of wear in the summer in Istanbul, one can recommend leaving too frank outfits (dresses with a deep neckline, skirts with a high neckline, etc.) at home. Otherwise, there are no special restrictions (except when you are going to visit the mosque). And be sure to take care of the presence of a comfortable shoe: almost certainly it can be argued that you will be much and long walking around the city on foot.

Istanbul in summer: how to relax?
