The Crimean village of Foros is not located in the most interesting area of the South Coast - exactly in the middle between Sevastopol and Yalta. And the drive from it to these iconic cities of Crimea is just over an hour, and transport there is not the most common pleasure. There is not much to do in the village itself and there are almost no bright tourist spots. In other words - the wilderness.
But the history of this wilderness is not the most boring! It was at the Frosskaya dacha that Brezhnev stayed during the August putsch, and the famous sanatorium for Soviet cosmonauts was also located there. And Yuri Gagarin himself rested at one of the dachas after his space flight. It's no joke!
But now Foros is a quiet, calm, somewhat provincial place, where the Soviet Union still breathes. There are no parties, noisy clubs, places of tourist pilgrimage or other social life to be found there. Even climbers do not settle in it, although the Forossky Kant rock massif, which is located much higher than the village, is for climbers.
In general, you should go there only if you want to take a break from crowds of people, noise and the frantic rhythm of the city. In those moments when you just need to go to the depths of the world and not see or hear anyone, and live a quiet, simple life with minimal signs of civilization.
When I arrived there, I was a little taken aback by the stagnation, emptiness, lack of signs of vigorous activity and silence. I was just in a non-Foros state at the time. But in moments when I wanted to be alone with myself and my thoughts, with full confidence that no one and nothing would distract me, I, dripping with saliva, remembered Foros and dreamed of being there. Away from the noisy tourist crowds and bustle. In general, this place is for a certain state of mind.
How to get there
Foros is located on the Crimean Peninsula, which can be reached by all means known to us: on foot, by bicycle, by boat and even on horseback. And of course, by car, bus, train and plane.
By plane
There is only one civil airport in Crimea, in Simferopol - SIMFEROPOL International Airport. There is a military airfield in Sevastopol, but planes full of tourists, unfortunately, do not fly there. But you can fly to almost all leading airlines. There are on average 5–7 flights a day from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg and other cities with a population of over a million, and if you take care of tickets in advance, they will be quite cheap: about 7,000 rubles. You can search for tickets for convenient dates on well-known search engine services, and it is convenient to compare prices from different sellers. The travel time will be about 3 hours, so this is the best option.
Path from the airport
Taxi
As at every airport, you will be greeted here by friendly but greedy taxi drivers. A trip from Simferopol to Foros, including luggage, will cost around 3,000 rubles. The journey will take about an hour.
Bus/trolleybus
For fans of public transport, there are several options for the development of events. In any case, you need to go with a transfer in Yalta.
If you want to take a leisurely ride along the South Coast Highway, stopping at every stop and enjoying the mountain and sea views, then you can use trolleybus No. 55, following the route: airport -. The cost of such a trip is 100 rubles, duration is about 2.5 hours. These trolleybuses run rarely, but on any other city trolley you can get from the airport to the railway station, and from where trolleybuses No. 52 and other buses go towards Yalta every 20 minutes. Also, Yalta can be reached by buses and minibuses that go to Yalta and depart from the airport every half hour. They do not have specific route numbers; they simply have a sign on the windshield indicating their destination. Travel time is about 2 hours, cost is 150 rubles.
The bus station, from where trolleybuses and minibuses depart, is located opposite the main entrance to the airport, across the parking lot, immediately behind the fences.
Minibus No. 128 runs from Yalta to Foros every 40 minutes. The last one seems to be around 8-9 o'clock. It departs from the upper platform of the bus station.
There is another option to take any Sevastopol bus from Yalta (they run every 20 minutes) and get off at the Foros stop on the highway. But then you will have to walk 3 kilometers down from the highway. With suitcases this is not the most pleasant experience.
By train
For lovers of the romance of trains, Russian Railways came up with a “Single Ticket” to Crimea. By train from all major cities of the country you can get either to Anapa or Krasnodar, from there by bus to the ferry crossing. Then you find yourself in Kerch and there you take other buses to travel to the villages and villages of the Crimean Peninsula.
This route can be found on the Russian Railways website.
But personally, I don’t see the point in such a ticket: making a bunch of transfers in the heat, and even the risk of being stuck at the crossing for several hours is very high. The tourists traveling on the “Single Ticket”, whom I met at the stations, had a very sad and “rumpled” look, they were no longer happy about coming to Crimea, fatigue from numerous road scrapes took over.
This option may be relevant for residents of remote regions, where flight fares are quite high, in order to save money. Getting to Crimea by plane from Central Russia is not at all expensive.
By bus
There are regular buses from Moscow and St. Petersburg to Kerch. The ticket price is about 3 thousand rubles. Having reached Kerch, you will need to get to the city you need on your own. Fortunately, the bus service between Kerch and the rest of Crimea is quite well developed.
There is another option: buy bus tours, where all connections and logistics are already thought out for you. Similar offers can be found from many travel agencies. It's a little more expensive, but you won't have to wait long for connections. The same tours are organized to cities such as and Bakhchisarai. Then no transfers at all. Travel time is a little more than a day.
The buses that carry long distances are quite comfortable - my friends who travel this way did not complain of discomfort.
By car
You can get from Moscow to Yalta by private car in 18 hours, excluding stops and food breaks. Gasoline costs will be about 10 thousand rubles. The road will run through Ukraine. From Moscow you need to take the E105 highway, which leads directly to Yalta, the length of the route is 1,481 km.
It is not difficult to get from Yalta to Foros - you need to move west towards Sevastopol for 40 kilometers, and turn towards the sea at the turn to Foros, indicated by a sign.
The journey from St. Petersburg will take about 30 hours. There are options: go either only through Ukraine, or through Belarus and Ukraine. The average is 2,200 km. If you drive only through Ukraine, then you should take the E95 highway, in Bryansk get onto the E101, follow it to Belgorod, and then change the road to E105. This is the most optimal, simple (less chance of getting lost at junctions and turns) and fastest option.

When is the season? When is the best time to go
The best time for a holiday in Crimea is mid-August - late September. Not so hot, not so stuffy, the sea is warm and rarely stormy. Local fruits, berries, nuts and vegetables have already ripened, young wines have been made from the new grape harvest and markets are starting to sell all these riches of Crimea. And the crowds of tourists are no longer so impressive. In general, absolutely all, without exception, the delights of southern resort life can be enjoyed during this period.
Foros in summer
Numerous Foros sanatoriums are all booked in the summer. But the streets are as deserted as always. Well, okay, maybe a little more crowded than in the off-season. Sedate elderly couples and mothers with small children relax there, for whom the quiet, desolate and non-criminal Foros is the real deal.
In general, in Crimea things are like this:
- the sea warms up to a comfortable temperature(about +23°C) by mid-June and maintains this temperature until the end of September. Until this time, bathing has some hardening and invigorating effect: +18–20 °C. But on the small city beach (only three spaces between the breakwaters) all the free places are filled almost from 7 in the morning, and if you want to lie on the pebbles, and not on the hands and feet of your neighbors, then you need to go to the distant “Europe” beach.
- Warm weather has been established in Crimea since May. But the hottest time is at the end of July - early August(usually it lasts 2-3 weeks). The heat is simply sweltering, and at night the earth does not have time to cool down, and it is terribly stuffy. And the sea is not at all refreshing; at this time it is disgustingly warm. Even the local southerners, fried by the sun to the very bones, are languishing in the heat and don’t know where to go. What can we say about us, cold northerners and other Vikings. At this time, I least recommend traveling with children: the poor fellows will only get tired of the heat and stuffiness and will not allow their parents to rest with their “climatic” whims.
- Well, of course summer is the biggest influx of tourists. There are queues and crowds at all the attractions, and traffic jams on the narrow two-lane Crimean roads are only slightly worse than those in Moscow.
Foros in autumn
In autumn, Foros is beautiful - as it offers a view of the Foros edge, covered with golden and scarlet spots of autumn foliage. Very aesthetically pleasing and impressive.
Locals also bring a bunch of goodies from their gardens to self-proclaimed markets: fruits, vegetables, pickles, jams. Mushroom pickers sell freshly cut chanterelles and honey mushrooms, fishermen sell freshly caught bluefish and horse mackerel. Everything is environmentally friendly, without GMOs, take my word for it. Not frozen ice cream, not transported a million years far away, but grown in the fresh Crimean mountain-sea air and brought for sale with the freshest and most delicious :) In addition, they sell as much exotic stuff as you can’t find in any gingerbread store. branded supermarket.
In general, I repeat once again: autumn is definitely the best time for a holiday in Crimea, no matter in which village or city.
Foros in spring
In spring, Foros is a pleasant, quiet, sunny place. The sea is still cold (+15 °C), only walruses enjoy swimming. During the day it is quite warm - the temperature rises to +25 °C, and at night to +17 °C. But prices have not yet been set. And if you come at the end of May-April, you can find Crimea in bloom! The plateau is strewn with poppies, and the gardens are in clouds of the most fragrant flowering in the world. It's incredibly pleasing to the eye! The lavender fields alone are worth it.
And also, on the plateau, in the mountains right above Foros, a bunch of mountain flowers are blooming, and most importantly, snowdrops. At the end of April, thousands of delicate white bells bloom in mountain meadows. The spectacle is beautiful and unique! They shamelessly tear up the snowdrops and drag them home, where they wither every other day. And this, by the way, is a plant listed in the Red Book! So, let's just admire them and breathe in their sweet aroma in the forest, without leaving the cash register.
Foros in winter
In winter in Foros the melancholy is unreal. It, like all coastal villages, is dying out. So he's not the liveliest. Since the beginning of November, cafes, stalls and small seasonal hotels have been permanently closed, tourists are leaving, the streets are empty. It’s very rare if, while wandering somewhere around the village, you meet three people. To see one is good luck. After 6 the streets are quiet - it gets dark early in winter, and street lighting in Foros is limited to just a couple of lanterns. There is absolutely nowhere to go - no theaters, no cinema, no fitness centers, no courses, shows, screenings, parties, concerts... Public transport stops running at the same ill-fated 6 o'clock in the evening. After 6 - at least hang yourself. Even when the winter mountain winds are howling and the sea is stormy, and there is no trace of a cozy coffee shop nearby - it’s absolutely a nightmare - there is no other way to convey the full drama of winter in Crimea.
Temperatures in winter vary. It happens that it reaches -10 °C. This temperature is perceived as very disgusting due to the high humidity. Sometimes a piercing icy wind blows from the mountains or from the sea, when it simply blows you off your feet. Sometimes snow will fall, lie there for a day and then immediately melt. And most often, of course, sunny warm days from 0 to +5 ° C. Comfortable temperature for outdoor operation. Even in winter it is often stormy. And if you want to look at a truly raging element with two-meter waves and clouds of spray, then winter is ideal for this.

Districts. Where is the best place to live?
I don’t think that Foros is somehow divided into districts - it is quite small. Most likely, it contains the classic resort zoning based on distance from the sea. Those who want to be closer to the sea settle on the first or second coastal ones, but, of course, keep in mind that housing there is more expensive. Those who prefer to be away from spots with a high concentration of people rent a hut a little further (although in Foros there is generally a very low concentration of people) Easy, easy :)
An impressive part of Foros is occupied by closed sanatorium areas. Only vacationers on vouchers can live there.
What are the prices for holidays?
It is no secret that vacationing in Crimea is more expensive than in Turkey and Greece. And the South Coast in particular is generally the most expensive vacation spot in Crimea. Since most of the iconic tourist places are gathered here, Crimeans are not shy about exorbitant prices, which rise here every season. They can be understood - work is hard in Crimea, and the money the guys earn from tourists feeds them for the whole next year. But nevertheless, there are some who are completely insolent.
The main thing is not to fall for this - feel free to bargain with taxi drivers and shopkeepers, buy not the first souvenir you come across, but walk between the aisles. I bet someone will have the same product (and maybe even better) for 30% cheaper.
Accommodation
In high season it is difficult to find accommodation cheaper than 700 rubles per night. As a rule, such prices are offered by private owners. Hotels start from 1000 per night and go up to exorbitant prices. To avoid getting into trouble, it is better to compare the cost on the Internet in advance (for example,). You can also book a room on.
Nutrition
Lunch in a canteen or an average cafe will cost 200–300 rubles, and in restaurants and more decent cafes 500–700 rubles. The average price for visiting excursions and attractions is 300 rubles per piece.
Transport
A minibus to Yalta will cost about 50 rubles, in the village - 13, a bus to Simferopol 150 rubles, to Sevastopol - 100.
Main attractions. What to see
There are not many attractions in Foros itself and its surroundings, but there are still some quite interesting ones :)
Top 3
Beaches. Which ones are better
- Central city beach. A classic of the genre of southern cities - noisy, crowded, a lot of cafes and stalls with food, beer and souvenirs, not enough space on the shore to lie down. Well, in Foros this is represented to a lesser extent, since it is not the most popular tourist spot.
- Beaches of hotels and resorts. These beaches are always more civilized, cleaner, more well-groomed and not as densely populated as city beaches. Some Foros sanatoriums and hotels allow non-guests onto their premises for a fee. It can vary from 50 to 200 rubles. It often includes the use of sun loungers and umbrellas.
- Beach "Derevyashka". Crimea is not Crimea without nudist beaches! In every coastal village there is always a place where people with free morals are attracted. In Foros, this beach has the characteristic name “wooden beach”.
- Cold beach. It is named so because there are several cold springs under the water, and the water there is always a little colder than elsewhere. It is located in a very beautiful and quiet bay; as a rule, there are not many people there.
Churches and temples. Which ones are worth visiting?
Definitely worth a visit Foros Church, which is on the mountain above the village. If only simply because of the gorgeous views that open from its observation decks.
Museums. Which ones are worth visiting?
There are no museums as such in Foros. But there is the Tesseli estate, where all sorts of counts lived in the 19th century and Gagarin himself rested after the flight, as well as Gorbachev’s dacha. Tourists are not allowed in either place now and excursions are not held. But no one forbids walking next to them and taking pictures.
Tourist streets
Terletskaya and Shkolnaya streets lead to the beach, which means they can safely be called tourist streets - there are a lot of stalls with Crimean delicacies and souvenirs, several cafes and hostels.
What to see in 1 day
In one day you will go around the whole of Foros five times :)
Well, let’s say you came there from Yalta.
- So, 10:00 you are in Foros.
- 10:00 - 12:00 - swimming on one of its cleanest beaches.
- 12:00 - 13:00 - escape from the heat into the coolness of the Foros park.
- 13:00 - 14:00 - lunch in any cafe you like.
- 14:00 - 15:00 - inspection of the Tesseli estate and Gorbachev’s dacha.
- 15:00 - 17:00 - visit to the Foros Church and the Baydar Gate.
- 17:00 - 18:00 - dinner at the “Shalash”.
What to see in the area
The surroundings of Foros are the entire South Coast and. Therefore, it is simply possible and even necessary to travel around the surrounding villages, and.
Food. What to try
- Of course, in Crimea, the first thing you should do is fill your belly with all the southern delicacies - crayfish, oysters and mussels, boiled corn, dried Black Sea fish, churchkhela and baklava. It is definitely worth eating Crimean fruits and vegetables in the fall: figs, cherry plums, peaches, grapes, plums, dogwoods, cherries, walnuts, pistachios and olives. All this is available in stalls on beaches and embankments, as well as from merchants walking along tourist streets.
- Since Crimea is famous for its rich Tatar culture, establishments of Crimean Tatar cuisine are most common here. And it's definitely worth a try pilaf, pasties, lagman and other national gastronomic delights. There are no such cafes in all the villages of large Yalta, and on average, lunch there costs 500 rubles. Local friendly Tatars, a diaspora of excellent gourmets and cooks cook there, so everything is very tasty and satisfying.
- Besides, During the high tourist season, a bunch of canteens and cafes with European cuisine open. Many of them boast gorgeous views of the open terraces.
- And the most important thing! Try everything that grannies sell in markets and just on the streets! Don’t be afraid of unsanitary conditions and generally discard such prejudices! The products are unique, have no analogues, and are always incredibly tasty and unusual. You can’t taste this anywhere else - grannies bring the most incredible things from their gardens, marinate it all in Crimean mountain herbs, bake it with spices unknown to us and, most importantly, with love and creativity. Mind blowing! Seriously, don't be afraid to try it, you won't regret it.

Holidays
Sometimes, in coastal villages, Neptune Day is celebrated - the holiday of the god of the sea. Mass celebrations, costume shows for children, competitions for adults and games for children are held on the beaches. At the end of the performance, the god Neptune comes out with his subjects and throws everyone into the sea :) It is always performed in the neighboring village, I can’t say for sure about Foros. Maybe there is such a tradition there too. It usually falls at the end of June.
Safety. What to watch out for
In general, Foros is a citadel of peace and security, but there are things that it is better to warn yourself against:
- Intestinal infections- they, like food poisoning, are the ones you should be most careful of in hot weather. You should wash your fruits and hands thoroughly, do not swallow sea water from the beaches, and drink vitamins to boost your immunity.
- Pocketnicknames You should pay special attention to your bags and wallets. Do not wear them open or leave them unattended on the beach. Thieves of all kinds flock to resort towns for easy prey. Gawky tourists, worn out by the southern sun, forget about safety and walk along the embankment with their mouths open and their backpacks on. This is the most delicious morsel for any pickpocket. Don't become one of these simpletons! Windows on the ground floor that are not protected by bars are also recommended to be closed at night and during your absence. Just be vigilant and everything will be fine. Although these guys don’t meddle in Foros - it’s a “dead” place for big loot, it’s worth keeping in mind the possibility of robbery.
- Storm. You should also beware of them. Getting into a storm at sea is easy, but getting out is not so much. I was once thrown pretty hard against the rocks before I could get out. You shouldn’t be arrogant and play with the elements - strong waves can drag you far from the shore or simply maim you on the coastal stones.
Things to do
In the village itself - lie on the beach, go to the market, eat southern delicacies, try sea fishing, go to Mount Mshatka, walk in the park. But besides this, you need to explore other cool corners of the South Coast, go on excursions and take all sorts of interesting tours :)
Shopping and shops
Present in Foros only in the form of grocery stores and one Soyuzpechat stall. The best part of shopping in Crimea is walking through the markets for local delicacies and souvenirs :) You can’t grab branded clothes in Crimea - because of sanctions, all European and American labels have closed their shops here.
Bars. Where to go
Every southern cafe, which is open only in season, is also a bar and a club. They sing, dance, and order karaoke. 90% of cafes and restaurants in Foros provide all these services. And they are everywhere
same level, quality and plan. Just take a walk in the evening through the center of the village and along the embankment - you will immediately understand where to go by the characteristic music and singing.
But in Partenit, these establishments are very much for everyone - they seem to be stuck in the 90s and do not know that there are singers besides Rosembaum and his ilk, and bar culture has already stepped much further than sticky tables and cocktails made only of vodka and juice.
Extreme Sports
The Southern Coast of Crimea is a real haven for extreme sports enthusiasts. Steep forest trails are wonderful for downhill cycling and freeride, mountain cliffs are for rope jumpers, the mysterious waters of the Black Sea are for divers and kayakers, tall rock formations are for rock climbing and mountaineering, relief plateaus are for jeeping, mountain river beds are for canyoning, deep caves - for caving tourism. And I'm sure this is not the whole list.
Above Foros there is the Forossky Kant, the rock massif Mshatka and Uarch-Kaya. All of them are dotted with climbing routes, and in general they are the most popular places for training and competitions among domestic climbers. There is a good campsite right below the massif, so climbers do not settle in Foros itself.
Souvenirs. What to bring as a gift
As a gift from Crimea, it is definitely worth bringing sweet Yalta onions, aromatic sunflower oil, Crimean teas and wines (only it is better to buy them at wineries, the markets are full of fakes), local spices (the Svan mixture is especially good), aromatic oils and soaps, nuts and olives, honey and jam from local fruits, bracelets and necklaces made of shells, paintings by local painters, ceramics from potters, toys carved from wood. All this can be found in the markets.
Classic souvenirs like magnets, shell beads, teas and soap can be purchased for 100 rubles. The price for tourist cards is the same. The cost of illustrated publications about Crimea starts from 300 rubles. Spices cost from 30 rubles per bag. Wines - from 250 per bottle. In addition, in markets and souvenir stalls you can safely practice the art of bargaining and bring down the price a little :)
How to get around the city
On foot, of course! How else can you get around a small coastal village? The only thing is that it has a lot of slides with significant height changes. At first it’s unusual - you’re out of breath and your muscles hurt. But by the time the vacation comes to an end, the legs and lungs are already getting used to and adapting :)
Taxi. What features exist
A taxi ride in Yalta or Sevastopol costs on average 150 rubles. You just need to call the ordering services, and not use the services of bombs that lure rogue tourists. They jack up prices shamelessly. Taxi numbers are available on the Internet, I just called the first number that came up in a search engine. Unfortunately, convenient Yandex taxi and other applications have not yet reached Crimea. To the airport, taxi drivers usually charge 2000–3000 rubles. From Foros to Yalta and Sevastopol - from 500 to 700 rubles.
Buses
According to locals, minibuses do not go through the village itself. I take their word for it, but I haven’t checked it myself.
From the Foros bus station you can get to Yalta, Sevastopol, Simferopol and Bakhchisarai.
The schedule changes from winter to summer, you need to check it at the bus station, and as a rule they are also posted at bus stops and inside the buses.
Transport rental
Many people rent cars and for good reason. This is much more convenient than being stuck in crowded summer minibuses, not knowing where to get off and whether you will catch the last flight.
There is no rental service in Foros, but there is one in Yalta, Sevastopol, Bakhchisarai and Simferopol. At the airport itself there are several offices of various car rental companies. On average, renting an economy class car for 7 days costs about 8,000 rubles. Business class - about 15,000. During the high tourist season, you need to book cars in advance, at least a month in advance. You can view possible rental options.
Be careful on winding and steep mountain roads - that's my only advice. Driving on flat terrain is different from driving on mountainous terrain. The latter requires more skill and dexterity. So don't be reckless, just be careful :)
Foros - holidays with children
Foros is ideal for holidays with small children. Clean, quiet, calm, without crowds of tourists and cafes screaming chanson until nightfall. Clean large beaches, a picturesque shady park for walking with a stroller, children's playgrounds. It’s good for both kids and parents :)
The once elite Foros surprises with the contrast between the beauty of nature and the decline of society. There is no self-government here, no police, there is only one doctor for the entire village - and many migrants. Last year they carried out real terror here. Recently, one of them raped a 4-year-old girl.
The sweetish taste of decay has accompanied the guests of Greater Yalta since the time of Solovyov’s “Assa”. There is no novelty in this for a long time, but people come here specifically for the bizarre mixture of paradise landscapes and social decadence, just like they go to Anatolia for all-inclusiveness. Plunge into the atmosphere of sunny Soviet decay, be horrified by the prices, and be outraged by the rudeness - these are the same mandatory elements of the program as a visit to the Vorontsov Palace. But, unfortunately, the degradation of society on the picturesque southern coast of Crimea has long gone beyond the scope of demand from urban aesthetes.
There has been no police in Foros for many years - the nearest stronghold is in Alupka. Since 2016, residents of the village have been complaining about the wild antics of migrant workers working on nearby construction sites. A year ago, people from the southern republics attacked passers-by here, harassed women, and robbed stores. In the summer of 2017, after the intervention of the head of the Crimean Ministry of Internal Affairs, the police took measures to restore order. However, the effect quickly wore off. According to Foros residents we interviewed, migrant workers continue to commit outrages in the village.
Perhaps the absence of police in Foros was one of the reasons for the terrible tragedy that happened here to a little girl from a dysfunctional family. According to local residents, the victim’s mother came to Foros several years ago, did not work anywhere, and abused alcohol every day. Nothing is known about the girl's father. They say about the victim’s stepfather that he was engaged in construction and was also no stranger to alcohol.
On June 3, in Foros, a visiting builder tricked a four-year-old girl into going for a walk. He took her to the area of Cosmonauts Street and there, at one of the dachas, he raped the child. After the abuse, the rapist lost interest in his victim, the girl returned to the village and there she told the adults she trusted about what had happened.
“Our cafe has been open since May, and since that time a little girl began to come to us,” an employee of a cafe in the center of Foros, who asked not to indicate her name, told Notes. “I knew that the family was constantly drinking, so I paid the girl a little attention and fed her regularly.”
According to our interlocutor, she learned about the rape of the child from a friend, to whom the girl herself came and told about what had happened. The cafe employee immediately called the police, who, without delay, reconstructed the crime scene. Soon the rapist was detained.
In this cafe, compassionate employees fed the girl, they called the police when they heard about the trouble
The victim's family lived here
“The rapist was detained and, by court decision, is in a pre-trial detention center. The Investigative Committee is looking into the case,” Ivan Atamanenko, a district police officer from Alupka, told Notes.
Local residents say that after the tragedy, the grandfather of the raped girl came to the village and expressed a desire to take part in her fate. “Notes” was unable to contact him; the phone number of the victim’s stepfather, which local residents gave us, has been disconnected for several days.
The visit to Foros left a painful impression. The village is unkempt. There is garbage all around, overflowing bins. Everywhere people of Caucasian and Asian appearance are sitting on benches and drinking beer - this is during the day, around 15.00.
The long-term absence of police and the difficult crime situation have apparently left their mark on the population of Foros. People are reluctant to talk to the press; interlocutors ask that their names not be used.
In fact, today Foros, where about 2 thousand people permanently live, is left to its own devices - Yalta is 50 kilometers away, and the officials there clearly have no time for routine village problems. There is no one to maintain law and order in the village. Medicine is represented by one (!) doctor. Local self-government does not exist in Foros: the head of the territorial body has neither money, nor a seal, nor real powers. At the same time, over the past year and a half, hundreds of migrant workers have come to the village, which is virtually cut off from the outside world, working on the construction of state dachas and the renovation of the Foros sanatorium, earning odd jobs on private construction sites.
It was in such a specific atmosphere that the tragedy occurred. Why the Crimean authorities did not fulfill last year’s promise to open a stronghold for law enforcement in the village is still unclear. Probably there wasn't enough money. Although the proceeds from the sale of the sanatorium of the same name to the elites of Tatarstan could be more than enough for this.
The Foros sanatorium is surrounded by the beauty of the Foros park, spread over 50 hectares, the park area of the sanatorium is well-groomed, and the park is one of the largest and best in Crimea. The sanatorium offers accommodation in comfortable rooms and high-level services. After two years of inactivity, the Foros sanatorium reopened its doors to tourists in the early summer of 2016 after the reconstruction of the number of rooms, park area, beach and service premises of the sanatorium.
Accommodation in the Foros sanatorium
The Foros sanatorium consists of two dormitory buildings in which accommodation is offered to tourists.

Directions to the Foros sanatorium
Address of the Foros sanatorium: Russian Federation, Republic of Crimea, Yalta city, urban settlement Foros, Forossky descent, 1, Foros sanatorium
One day a tourist liked it so much holiday in Foros What he told a local resident: “All people dream of being in Paradise after death. You, Forosites, are already in Paradise.” Every year, more and more people who vacation in this quiet corner of the Black Sea agree with this statement.
An urban-type resort village is located on the southern coast of the Crimean peninsula. It is located only 40 kilometers from Yalta and is the last resort of Greater Yalta in this direction. Foros is the southernmost village of Crimea, next to it the southernmost point of the peninsula stretches towards Turkey - Cape Sarych. Since Soviet times, Foros has been known for the fact that members of the party elite came to it for health. The village gained worldwide fame during the August 1991 coup d'etat. At this time, the first (and in those days the last) President of the USSR, Mikhail Gorbachev, was here in isolation at his state dacha.
After Ukraine declared its independence, this dacha became the residence of its president.
Today the village has a little more than two thousand residents. The basis of the region's economy is the tourism industry.
Climate of Foros
Foros is located 6 km east of Cape Sarych. The climate of the region is subtropical, with long, humid and not too hot summers and warm winters (average January temperature +5°C). In terms of the number of clear days, Foros is the sunniest place in Crimea. At the same time, it is not the hottest: the heat of the day is cooled by breezes, saturated with coolness and ions of the sea. Night winds from the north (foehn) carry forest aroma and freshness. The low level of precipitation makes a holiday in Foros truly comfortable. Such climatic conditions are used Foros sanatoriums in the treatment of pulmonary, cardiovascular and nervous diseases.
Foros is famous for its clean sea. But the local one is even more famous a park. On an area of 47 hectares, a unique flora reserve was established 160 years ago, which contains plants from all over the world. The park is based on a natural local forest. On one side it adjoins the steep seashore, and on the other it abuts Mount Foros. The park features more than 200 species of shrubs and trees. Located in the central part of the park, six artificial lakes of different levels fascinate with their beauty - this place in the park is rightly called “Paradise”. Holidays in Foros is considered incomplete if the vacationer has not visited the “Paradise”.
Sights of Foros
- Laspinsky pass. The highest point on the way from Sevastopol to Yalta. The equipped observation deck offers a wide panorama of the Black Sea and Crimea.
- . Crimean "Stonehenge" - a pile of stones with a pointed, regular shape, is considered a mystical place.
- Baydarsky pass.
- Stone garden in Laspi. An underwater city made of giant stone blocks near Cape Sarych.
- Uzundzhi Canyon. Wild, beautiful and little-known place - canyon, waterfalls, cave.
Entertainment in Foros
On each beach you can have fun not only by sunbathing or swimming in the Black Sea. All attributes beach holiday organically fit into the local “wild” landscape: windsurfing, boats, boat trips on yachts and boats, jet skis, “banana”. If for you a vacation on the Black Sea is unthinkable without exploring the underwater world, then in Foros you will find a well-equipped diving base. If you are new to diving, don’t worry - professional instructors will help you, and you won’t leave here without memories of the magical minutes of underwater life.
Foros is one of the few resorts that can boast a golf course.
Colored beaches of Foros
The beaches of Foros are small-pebble. There are only five of them - one sanatorium and four city ones. If vacationing on the Black Sea has long become your good habit, and you have already traveled all over Crimea, then Foros beaches you will be surprised. They are uncrowded and clean. A symbolic fee is charged only at the entrance to the sanatorium beach; other beaches are free. With their local names, the beaches are reminiscent of Dunno and its Sunny City - “Green”, “Pink”, “Cold” and “Quiet Bay”. The road to each beach is marked with arrows, so finding them is not difficult.
Sanatoriums of Foros
You can combine a vacation on the Black Sea with recovery in Foros in several places:
- Sanatorium "Foros". Located on the edge of the village, 100 m from the beach. It is on the territory of this sanatorium that the Foros park described above is located. The 14-story building of the sanatorium was built in 1986. On the territory there is a gym, sports grounds, a sauna, a library, a dance hall, a solarium, and a cinema hall.
- Sanatorium "Yuzhny". Located near Foros. Built in 1979. It was assumed that the sanatorium would provide quality holiday in Foros leaders of foreign communist parties of the highest echelon. Therefore, in three buildings of the sanatorium there are 34 luxury rooms designed for 120 people. All rooms have sea views. Vacationers can use the banquet hall, swimming pool, gym, sauna, volleyball court, therapeutic gymnastics room, and barbecue.
- Health complex "Tavria". Located near Foros, in the village of Oliva, near the Black Sea. 28 rooms of different comfort levels are located in three buildings of the sanatorium. There is a children's room, a library, a conference room, and a restaurant.
About food in Foros
When planning a vacation in Foros, you should take into account the fact that food prices in the village are higher than in other resort areas on the southern coast of Crimea. This is due to the distance of Foros from “civilization”. In addition, currency exchange here takes place at an unfavorable rate for you, so it is better to come with “your” hryvnia.
Foros bars and cafes are located in the Foros sanatorium and on the embankment:
- cafe "Fandu"; open 24 hours a day in summer;
- bar "Caprice";
- cafe "Fleur"; only open in summer.
- Armenian cafe.
Foros hotels and prices
The price increase associated with the “solitude” of Foros affected not only products. Cost of living in the village also differs unfavorably from the cost of living in other Black Sea resorts. And although there are problems with hotels, sanatoriums or rent housing in the private sector not here, but you’ll have to shell out a pretty penny:
- A day's stay in a furnished two-room apartment will cost 600-800 hryvnia. Renting a house for a family of 4 costs 250-500 hryvnia, a one-room apartment - from 350 hryvnia;
- hotels offer double rooms at prices starting from 480 hryvnia;
- a standard room for two in the Foros sanatorium with treatment and food costs 1400-1800 hryvnia.
Most of those who spent their holidays in Foros return here again and again. Why is Foros so attractive to them? What has enchanted this southern corner? The answers can be found in the reviews of tourists. Describing their days in the village, they note:
- unique properties of healing air, saturated with juniper-pine phytoncides and sea ions;
- the breathtaking and beautiful nature of Crimea;
- free beaches and clean sea water on them;
- picturesque park;
- a feeling of “prestige” when vacationing in Foros, the former health resort of the party elite.
