Yeysk is a magnificent seaside and unique balneo-mud resort in the north-west of the Krasnodar Territory, secluded on the shores of the warm Sea of Azov at the base of the spit of the same name that separates the Taganrog Bay from the Yeysk estuary. Read our article on the Tour Calendar explaining why the end of May, June, July and the end of August are ideal for a beach holiday.
Tourist season in Yeysk
For the first time, Yeysk stood on the tourist trail at the beginning of the 20th century, and by 1960 there were several boarding houses, gray and mud baths. But it received the official status of a resort only in 2006, after which a federal program on the integrated development of the city was signed. Today, Yeysk is a modern, dynamic resort with a fertile microclimate, healing natural factors, and a developing hotel and recreational infrastructure. Every year, during the tourist season from early May to mid-October, up to 500,000 people rest in Yeysk.
High season
The high tourist season in Yeysk begins at the end of June, when the specialization of the resort can be judged from the beach picture: at this time, a huge number of couples with children come here. However, recently Yeysk, focusing on water sports, has become its mecca for active youth - windsurfers and yachtsmen. Even at the height of summer, taking into account the rise in prices by 30% -60%, Yeysk remains attractive for tourists with an average income. And in this regard, the resort is beyond competition. In summer, some major cities in Russia have direct flights to the city, which significantly affects the capacity of the tourist flow.
low season
In mid-October, the former cloud of vacationers instantly dissipates, the beaches are empty, and Yeychans return to their usual rhythm of life. Yeysk returns to its non-tourist affairs, because, in addition to the kingdom of sand, sea and sun, it is also a trading port and a base for a flight school.
Beach season in Yeysk
The beach season in Yeysk officially begins around June 10 at a water temperature of +22 ° C..23 ° C, however, if the month is hot, they start swimming from the last days of May. The Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov is shallow, so it warms up very quickly. In July, on the beaches of the resort, you can see the multicolored swimwear: the temperature of the sea water reaches +25 °C. These are ideal conditions for bathing children. In the last month of summer, the water becomes a degree colder, but due to the rather hot weather, this is hardly noticeable.
Velvet season in Yeysk
Already in mid-late September, the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov cools down. It happens almost instantly. The weather in the early days can quickly deteriorate: rains and winds come, cooling and stirring up the water. If you are lucky, then on the 10-15th it may get warmer again, but not much: at noon you will be able to lie down on the beach for a bit and swim in the invigorating water. Prices in the velvet season are more than pleasant, so you won’t have to be content with modest housing for the sake of savings. A deluxe room in a small hotel can be rented for only 500-600 rubles.
The best time for excursions
Yeysk is one of the oldest cities in Russia, captivating with its originality. The traditions of the Don and Kuban Cossacks can be traced here like nowhere else. This is one of the cultural centers of the Kuban with a huge concentration of various attractions. Just for them, it is worth coming to this glorious place. April, May and early September are ideal for participating in the excursion program, but if you still want to combine the trip with a beach holiday, then June will be a reasonable compromise for these purposes.
Wellness season
Yeysk is the most valuable natural area in terms of climatic, balneological and mud therapy. Healing here is even the ionized sea air and the water of the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov, enriched with about 100 useful mineral elements. People come to Yeysk for treatment all year round. And even in summer, as the climate is quite dry, especially suitable for people suffering from diseases of the broncho-pulmonary system. During this period, people rush to Yeysk for Khan Lake, which is in no way inferior in its healing properties to Lake Sak in the Crimea.
sailing season
For more than 10 years, Yeysk has been claiming the title of the surfing center of Russia, this is how long professional competitions in this sport have been held here with the support of the Yeysk windsurfing school. The opening of the season falls on mid-April, and the closing - on the last days of August.
Time for holidays and festivals
The tourist season opens with the May sailing regatta of cruising yachts "Sailing Spring in Yeysk". Also at this time, the first stage of the Russian Windsurfing Championship starts - the Yeysk Cup, which officially opens the surf season throughout the country. At the end of June, a traditional film festival is held, which has a different name every year (“Provincial Russia”, “Yeisky Mayak”). On the third Saturday of August - festive festivities and dance and entertainment programs on the occasion of the City Day of Yeysk, which is attended by many Russian pop stars.
Climate in Yeysk
Despite the fact that Yeysk occupies the northernmost position in the Krasnodar Territory, the weather here is quite warm throughout the year with 2500 hours of sunshine. The temperate continental climate with features of the steppe, generated by the proximity of the sea to the steppe, determined hot and dry summers, as well as mild winters.
Yeysk in spring
It is almost impossible to predict what the beginning of spring in the city will be like, it is too stormy. Rains, so characteristic of March, can be replaced by a suddenly bursting snow storm, causing damage to primroses breaking through the frozen soil. And in the middle of spring, Yeysk appears before everyone in all its glory, when the weather pleases with warm days. These are green boulevards with young foliage, gardens with flowering fruit trees, parks with multi-colored flower beds exuding an excellent aroma. But do not forget that a clear sunny sky can be overcast with rain clouds at any moment. In May, there is a sharp jump in air temperature, very warm weather sets in, which by the end of the month can already be called hot. As a result, the sea warms up to +17 °C..+18 °C.
Temperature and weather in Yeysk in spring
| March weather | April weather | May weather | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average temperature | +2 | +9 | +17 |
| Temperature during the day | +4 | +13 | +21 |
| Temperature at night | -1 | +5 | +12 |
| Water temperature | +7 | +9 | +17 |
Yeysk in summer
With the onset of June, it gets quite hot. This is the opening time of the mass swimming season. In July and August, the average daily air temperature is about +28 °C, but in the sun, which shines most of the day, the thermometer reaches all +32 °C .. +35 °C. So make sure you have good sunscreen. Precipitation, by the way, falls very little. However, it should be said that the heat in Yeysk is more easily tolerated than in the resorts of the Black Sea coast. Firstly, this is facilitated by a low level of relative humidity, and secondly, the steppe heat is softened by refreshing breezes blowing from the sea. Water at this time is like fresh milk. Due to its specific greenish color, it sometimes seems cloudy, but in fact, in calm conditions, this is not the case.

| Temperature during the day | +26 | +27 | +27 |

Yeysk in autumn
Autumn in Yeysk is a wonderful time, despite the abundance of precipitation, most of which falls in November. In general, it is much warmer than spring in terms of its weather background. The first two weeks of September are considered the velvet season, but the weather may not always be dry and sunny. She tends to change here everyday. The foliage on the trees lasts quite a long time, so this season is very pleasant for walking, healing and sightseeing. In October, it is already significantly colder, and in the continuation of autumn, the air temperature drops. The last month of autumn is incredibly beautiful. You can observe all shades of gold and crimson.
The Azov and Black Seas are the most valuable regions of the country in terms of sea bathing and water sports. Their shores combine: a very long period with comfortable weather for recreation, there are (although not everywhere) beautiful sandy beaches (Evpatoria, Anapa, etc.), many places with rich southern vegetation, high water temperatures in the warm period, reaching some years near the Crimean and Caucasian coasts up to 29°. In the southern regions of the Black Sea coast, they bathe in some years and in winter (in Gagra, Sukhumi and Batumi).
The swimming season in the steppe parts of the Azov and Black Seas averages 4 months, reaching up to six months in the subtropics of the Black Sea. Under favorable weather conditions in the autumn-winter season, the bathing period in the most favorable area for this type of activity, near Gagra, lasts 7 months.
With some usual delay in spring on the coasts, the swimming season on the shores of the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov in deeper water areas and on the shores of the deep Black Sea begins (on average) from the end of May. In the shallow bays of the Sea of Azov, already in May, you can sometimes swim for 10-15 days, and on the Black Sea coast from Odessa to Novorossiysk - only 4-7 days, to the south - 10-15 days.
There are great fluctuations in the duration of this season from year to year, depending on weather conditions, waves, currents and winds.
According to the average long-term indicators, July and August are the most favorable for swimming in the Black Sea. Sometimes during these months, in especially hot weather, in order to avoid overheating, you should swim in the morning and evening hours (before Ni after 4 pm).
In June, the water in this very deep basin is still not warm enough. But as mentioned above, it happens that even at the height of summer it is far from possible to swim on all days. In September, almost the entire month is possible here (about 25 days). In October and the first half of November, if there is no cold autumn, they also usually swim.
In all months, the swimming season can be disturbed by storms. A significant reduction in the number of days suitable for swimming and activities on the water is also due to water surges associated with sea currents. They appear in the upper 200-meter layer due to the vertical exchange of water. During surges, especially long ones, at and near the Caucasian coast, much colder deep water than it was at the surface comes to the surface. As a result of intensive mixing, the temperature of the water near the shores decreases significantly within several hours or one day. This happens especially often when storm winds (more than 6 points) blowing from the south are replaced by western and then northwestern ones.
They excite the strongest and longest currents running from west to east along the Black Sea coast. The transverse circulation that occurs in such a current moves surface waters to the open sea, and near the bottom in the coastal strip - to the shore. The departure of warm waters from the coast and the outflow of deep waters to the surface are observed annually, but not the same number of times and differ in duration and strength.
So, in the Alushta region in 1949, such a phenomenon lasted 50 days. At the same time, the water temperature can drop by 15 or more, so in autumn it happens that after the surge, the swimming season no longer resumes. In the summer, the water warms up gradually and bathing resumes.
Having a bad effect on thalassotherapy, such circulation of waters, however, has a great positive significance for the state of the regions, which is especially important during the summer overpopulation of many resort areas of the Black Sea. It leads to the fact that the rising deep waters on the surface are desalinated by river water and, upon termination of the vertical exchange, do not sink again to the depth. Remaining at the top, they enrich the surface layers of water with nutrient salts. In hot years, sea breezes bring chilled water to the surface, which helps to mitigate the summer heat and increase the comfort of weather conditions. In addition, the surges are of great sanitary importance, which is extremely important in the summer for all overpopulated Black Sea and Azov coasts. With them, coastal waters are carried away to the open sea, and much cleaner deep waters enter in their place.
The climate on the Sea of Azov is significantly different from the Black Sea. It is drier due to the fact that the main water area is located among the steppes. Therefore, the Sea of Azov is often hotter, and the water warms up much faster.
In warm years, the water on the Sea of Azov warms up to 22-23°C already at the end of May. But for children up to seven or ten years old, it may seem cold. Therefore, if there is no task to harden the child, or the baby is prone to bronchopulmonary diseases, it is better not to go to Azov this month.
The water in the Sea of Azov is not as salty as in the Black Sea, so it will not harm the skin of even the smallest.
In June, the water temperature in the Sea of Azov reaches 24-26°C, depending on the weather. In rainy years, it warms up more slowly. But on the other hand, in June, the first vegetables and fruits begin to ripen, which are very useful for children. In addition, it is still not as hot as in July-August, the heat is tolerated quite easily. And the prices for renting real estate in June are lower than in the second half of summer. That is why families often choose this month to relax on the Sea of Azov.
The only disadvantage of the Sea of Azov is the monotonous coastal landscapes. There are no beautiful mountains, as in the Black Sea. But this is more likely to upset parents than children.
In July, the water in Azov becomes very warm. It reaches 27-29оС. Very young children will like this temperature very much. They will splash in shallow water for a long time without freezing at all. But in the second half of July, it is often too hot on the coast. Therefore, when relaxing with infants or preschoolers, you should not go to the beach between twelve in the afternoon and four in the evening. Toddlers can get heatstroke, which is accompanied by very unpleasant symptoms - severe headache, fever, nausea and vomiting. If you want to leave the house during the day, the child should definitely wear a hat and smear the skin with a sunscreen with a high UF factor.
The end of August - September is the best time for families with children on the Sea of Azov
By mid-August, the heat on the Sea of Azov subsides, and the water remains just as warm. Therefore, this time is optimal for families with children on the coast. There is no longer a suffocating heat, a light fresh breeze blows from the sea. The only negative of this period is that in some places on the coast an active growth of algae begins. They are not dangerous, but entering the sea filled with various plants is not very pleasant. Children may not like the feeling of something touching their skin in the water. But there are always algae-free beaches, so you can find out in which area it is better to stay before leaving.
The Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov attracts many vacationers in the summer season. Quite inexpensive accommodation prices allow you to spend unforgettable days by the water, and the relative proximity to major cities in the European part of Russia makes it possible to get to the coast in a matter of hours.
