The Pearl of the Black Sea is charming at any time of the year. This feature of Yalta was discovered by the upper strata of society of the Russian Empire at the end of the 19th century. In the city itself, holiday houses were built for the families of influential figures of the time, and in Livadia, a nearby suburb, a royal residence was founded.
Today Yalta is full of contrasts, a mix of history, both distant and not so distant, and modernity, a harmonious neighborhood of cozy narrow alleys of dilapidated houses and wide streets with luxurious restaurants and new buildings. Some iconic places have not yet been touched by the hand of the developer; such corners seem to have come straight out of Soviet postcards; you should hurry to see them with your own eyes.
This is a city with a soul and a special atmosphere, a real open-air museum. Therefore, it is not surprising that thousands of tourists come here every year - to touch long-gone eras, recharge themselves for the year ahead with the warmth of the sun, and breathe in the intoxicating air of pine and floral aromas.
Tourists with small children find a wonderful beach holiday at the resort and comprehensive treatment in large, long-established sanatoriums, and are immersed in an endless cycle of all kinds of entertainment.

It is unlikely that you will be able to sit idle, the resort surprises, delights, fascinates, attracts with sights and incredible colorful actions... Leisure will be unforgettable:
- The main “treasures” of the peninsula are concentrated in the city and around it - the Levadia and Massandra palaces, the Swallow’s Nest, residences and “dacha” houses of the nobility of the tsarist era, and churches. In terms of the number and value of architectural objects, this southern city is no worse than European ones;
- The central embankment is full of all kinds of fun. A leisurely walk under tropical trees, a cup of coffee with dessert in a nice cafe or restaurant, buying souvenirs, a dose of adrenaline on the amusement park attractions, live music, magic performances - all this can form the basis of an approximate program for a warm evening. You can dilute it with a concert in the famous “Yubileiny”, bowling in an entertainment club, karaoke songs right on the street, a disco in one of the large night clubs;
- Kids will also like it here. For them there is a zoo, the Atlantis water park, a dolphinarium, and in the open-air museum “Glade of Fairy Tales” heroes straight from the pages of books await. In the city, the doors of several cafes are open, where they offer only a children's menu. Here you can enjoy dozens of varieties of ice cream, drink a milkshake and all have a delicious cake.

It is impossible to find a sandy beach in the area, mostly small or large pebbles, the only option, and then if you are lucky, are stones mixed with sand.

You can get to almost any place on the coastline for free, because it belongs to the municipality. The exception is small islands rented by luxury hotels. Despite free access to the shore, you still have to pay - at least for the rental of sun loungers. Almost all beaches are equipped with toilets, changing rooms, and showers. Cozy cafes and cute restaurants are not uncommon; sometimes there are trading stalls with drinks, sweets and swimming accessories.

Useful tips for families with children
For many people, a holiday in Yalta makes the most favorable impressions; this is not surprising, since the climate of the Crimean peninsula is unique. Clean, rich air and a warm sea significantly strengthen the immune system and charge you with vigor.
But, when planning a trip with a child to this corner, you should listen to the advice of experienced tourists:
- If children are too young, you should avoid long excursions as they will get tired quickly.
- It is worth considering that in Crimea the ability to pay for various goods and services using a card is poorly developed, so it is better to take more cash with you on your trip.
- Also, at the resort, many places, even in the city center, are quite problematic to visit with a stroller if the child does not yet know how to walk, since there are no ramps almost everywhere, so you need to get an ergo backpack or be prepared for the fact that the baby will be held in your arms most of the time.
- There are no chain stores in Yalta, so vital goods that are sold only in them must be taken with you.
Most travelers who have visited the Crimean Peninsula are ready to return here more than once. This corner of the world is full of numerous mysteries that can be discovered endlessly, and it is much more interesting to do this with children.
