Tourist information about Lazurnoye village in Crimea

General information

Lazurnoye Village - a small village on the southern coast of Crimea, six kilometers south of Alushta (Lazurnoe on the map of Crimea). Administratively belongs to Alushta (part of Bolshaya Alushta) and is often perceived as one of its distant beaches, although in fact it is an independent resort area. The village is very tiny, its permanent population barely reaches 150 people, but in the high season the number of people living here increases several times, of course, thanks to tourists.

Holidays in Lazurnoe

Tourists who dream of a carefree pastime in sparsely populated and quiet places next to a warm and clean sea go to Lazurnoye first of all. This cozy resort has long been chosen by parents with their young children, as well as young people who prefer picnics and accommodation in tents or inexpensive guest houses to discos and stylish nightclubs. Shallow water, the absence of large waves, and affordable rental housing are the main advantages of Lazurnoe.

Passionate fans of snorkeling - a fashionable kind of swimming with a tube and a mask, as well as lovers of long cycling and exciting hikes will not be disappointed if they decide to rest in Lazurnoe. Although the area of the sea off the coast is not rich in a variety of inhabitants, the transparency of the water gives swimmers an excellent opportunity to observe the life of crabs and fish. Lovers of hiking or cycling, in turn, have every chance to meet graceful roe deer on the trails laid by travelers through pine and oak forests. If you are not lucky, you can just admire the modest beauty of the picturesque surroundings.

The disadvantages of Lazurnoe include almost complete lack of infrastructure (even for food it is better to go to Alushta), not very beautiful and convenient beaches (although the water is very clean), and a large height difference when moving around the village and going to the sea (you constantly have to go up and down).

Beaches Of Lazurnoe

Despite the glory of a beautiful beach resort, in fact, fans of a good beach holiday are waiting for a little disappointment. Several pebble beaches of Lazurnoe can be reached only in one difficult way – along the concrete and stone steps of several stairs descending to the coast along a hilly slope. Moreover, vacationers have two ways: through the territory of an unfinished boarding house; along a narrow road past the Reserve.

Built in Soviet times, the breakwaters divide the beach, strewn with brought small pebbles, into several sections, and do not add to their beauty at all. But the water amazes vacationers with its transparency. The remaining sections of the embankment and the nudist beach located further south (towards Yalta) are covered with large pebbles and large boulders. Apart from the concrete walls that reinforce the shore, there is no other equipment here. Vacationers also should not rely on sun loungers or any other amenities.

Attractions and entertainment

Tourists who do not represent their vacation without visiting nightclubs, dining in restaurants, shopping in shopping centers or supermarkets should refrain from traveling to Lazurnoe. None of the above, as well as cinemas, pharmacies or bars are not here. Buy food in a small grocery store and visit the summer cafe, which can not be called homely, is the little that guests of the resort can afford. Usually, vacationers go to neighboring Alushta for shopping and entertainment. The sights of the village with a stretch can be attributed to a winery of little interest to tourists, there is nothing else here. But you can get to Alushta and get acquainted with its sights and entertainment (see sights of Alushta).
