There is another type of stay during the vacation - renting an apartment or room in a private house. Any of these options has both positive and negative sides.
Rest on Baikal
Baikal is an amazing place. The deepest lake on Earth is located in Eastern Siberia and striking with its majestic beauty. The harsh nature and stunningly transparent water attract the fans of extreme rest, tourists, fishermen and simply connoisseurs of wild nature. Baikal is good because you can come here almost always - even in winter you can relax in the lake district. Summer is also great for swimming and fishing. In June there is still quite cool, but July and August are quite warm and well suited for recreation.
Recently, the tourist infrastructure of these places is developing by leaps and bounds. Hotels and guest houses, recreation centers are built, cruise ships cruise the waters of the lake - all this makes it possible to choose the type of recreation that every guest of this wonderful place likes.
Rest on Seliger
Another lake that will become a wonderful holiday destination. Located in the Tver and Novgorod regions, it is famous for its nature, as well as its flora and fauna. For lovers of fishing Seliger will be a real find. In its waters, there are about thirty species of fish, among which are pike-perch, bream, burbot, ide and many others.

Where to go in Ukraine in the summer of 2014?
Ukraine will be a good choice of places for recreation. Due to the fact that on its territory there are two mountain ranges - the Carpathian and Crimean mountains, and the south of the country is washed by two seas - the Black and the Azov, the nature here is really beautiful and unique in its own way. Ancient cities, leading their history since the times of Kievan Rus, the city-witnesses of the Zaporozhye Cossacks, the remains of ancient castles and fortresses - all this awaits you here in the vastness of sunny Ukraine.
Berdyansk
This city is located in the Zaporozhye region, on the shore of the Azov Sea. Berdyansk rightfully occupies the place of the famous mud and climatic health resort, therefore they come here not only to have a rest and to buy in the sea, but also to correct the shaken health. In Berdyansk, treatment with medicinal mud, brine shrub and thalassotherapy is practiced. It is most useful to go here to people suffering from diseases of the nervous system and musculoskeletal system, gynecology and respiratory organs.
Well Berdyansk and the fact that, unlike the Crimea, there are no sharp temperature changes, which can cause malaise in people with poor health. Due to the fact that the Azov Sea is relatively shallow, the water in it warms up earlier than in the Black Sea. This allows you to enjoy bathing in warm water for a long time - the beach season starts here in April-May and lasts until the last days of September.
The abundance of museums and monuments makes Berdyansk attractive for supporters of cultural recreation. As for housing, relatively small prices attract a large number of tourists to Berdyansk. Rest here can be very different - from fashionable to economy-variant.
Mariupol
Like Berdyansk, Mariupol is located on the shore of the Azov Sea. Recreation in the city itself is not bad, however, proximity to the metallurgical plant and commercial port makes it still not as pleasant as in nearby settlements, and there are many of them in the vicinity of Mariupol: Urzuf and Azov Yalta, Novoazovsk and Sopino, Melekino and Sedovo, as well as other settlements. Rest in them will be more calm and measured, and the environmental situation - yet not as tense as in industrial Mariupol. Well, this city occupies one of the leading places in all of Ukraine in terms of emissions of harmful substances into the air. It is for this reason that it will be safer to choose one of the nearby villages. You can choose the place of residence in them in different price range - from prestigious mini-hotels to renting a room in the private sector.
Rest in Yalta( Crimea, the Black Sea)
Yalta is a real gem of the Crimea. Located on the South Coast, Yalta is considered one of the best, expensive and fashionable resorts of the peninsula. Advantageous location of the city - the mountains here approach almost directly to the sea itself - makes Yalta attractive for tourists not only from near abroad, but also from more distant countries.
In fact, there is the city of Yalta and the so-called Big Yalta - a territory of 70 km, which is subordinate to the Yalta City Council. Yalta itself is full of greenery parks, in the immediate vicinity of the city is the famous Nikitsky Botanical Garden. In addition, there are many museums and monuments, temples and beaches. In fact, to Big Yalta are many nearby settlements and, accordingly, their sights. This makes it possible to include the Livadia and Vorontsov palaces, the famous Swallow's Nest, Palaces Dulber and Kichkine in Koreiz, the mountains of Ayu-Dag and Ai-Petri, as well as many other memorable places to Yalta.
In Yalta, there are many beaches, but at the height of the season it is not easy to find a free place here. All the beaches of Yalta are pebbly. Most of them are paid, entrance here can vary from 10 to 150 hryvnia. However, there is a free beach - Primorsky. In Yalta, there are many luxury hotels, such as the famous "Yalta-Intourist", and other luxury hotels. There are sanatoriums, recreation centers and guest houses.
Rest in Feodosia( Crimea, Black Sea)
Feodosia is located in the eastern part of Crimea, on the Black Sea coast. This city is attractive to many tourists with its rich history, affectionate sea, as well as a large number of monuments of architecture, culture and history. The name of the city is translated as "God given", and this name is fully justified.
The climate here is not as sharp as on the South Coast, and occupies an intermediate position between the steppe and subtropical. The temperature almost always keeps above the zero mark, so you can rest in the city not only in the summer. However, it is the best place in the summer.
Another nice feature of Feodosia is its sandy, not pebbly, beaches. In Feodosia is the famous Aivazovsky Gallery, where you can get acquainted with the pictures of the glorified seascape. It also houses the Alexander Green Museum - the author of the Scarlet Sails, familiar from childhood. As in most other Crimean resorts, in Feodosia, vacationers can choose between a premium vacation and economy options.
Rest in Evpatoria( Crimea, Black Sea)
This resort town is located in the western part of the peninsula. For a long time people came here not only for rest, but also for treatment. Brine and curative mud, sea and mineral water, tender sun and golden sand - all this attracts thousands of tourists to Evpatoria. Particularly famous for this place as a resort for children, because relatively shallow sea and sandy beaches give an opportunity to have a good rest with the kids. Well, the ancient history of the city and numerous monuments make a vacation in Evpatoria unforgettable.

Egypt
Egypt has long attracted our fellow citizens - it is not only summer vacations, but even winter ones. The country of the pyramids beckons guests from the former CIS countries for several reasons.

And, finally, thirdly, - the prices for holidays in Egypt are quite democratic. In addition, Egypt is well suited for family holidays.

Holidays in Turkey
Turkey, like Egypt, has long been chosen by our compatriots for the same reasons as the country we spoke about above. However, there are differences. For example, the climate here is not as harsh as in Egypt. In Turkey, you will find amazing beauty of nature - diverse and charming. Here there are unspoilt beaches - both sandy and pebbly. Also in Turkey at your service are picturesque mountains and gentle seas, to swim in which is a pleasure.

As for the climate here in the summer, I must say that the temperature at this time reaches 26-28 degrees above zero. However, at this time there is a chance to catch small rains and excitement at sea. Hotels in Maldives can provide vacationers with a choice of different living conditions - from luxurious to very modest. The price of accommodation can also vary from loyal to high enough.

Bahamas
The Bahamas are located not far from Cuba and the Caribbean Sea, to the southeast of the Florida peninsula. This archipelago has long been associated with a luxurious beach holiday.
