KaZantip is a cult. KaZantip is amazing. KaZantip is breathtaking.
KaZantip is mind-blowing. kaZantip is quite simply paradise… KaZantip
is one of the longest, craziest, liveliest and most unusual electronic
music and sports festivals in the world.
It appears unnecessary to introduce KaZantip, cause it seems each
and everyone know what Z stands for. However for those who somehow
stayed uninformed here some facts about it.
It all started back in 1992 as a windsurfing competition that brought
together 78 participants and 600 devotees. To make their hanging
out at the shore merrier some little sound was switched on. Next year,
even more devotees came there and among them were DJs, who car-
ried their LPs just to keep from getting bored.
In seven years, the competition raised from a small mix of surfers
and their friends to “the festival of everything related to sea, sex
and summer”.
In 2000, the Festival was forced to leave Kazantip cape, but in two
year it found its new home in a little Popovka village, in Western Crimea
and became Kazantip Republic with its own small area separated
from the entire world.
By Bus
Traveling by bus is the only direct way to get to Chornomorske. Buses to and from
Chornomorske go to various Crimean destinations throughout the day. The bus
schedule is in Russian, and is inside the bus terminal. Though very small, the bus
station does have an ATM and luggage storage inside (5Hr a day). Buses to the
regional villages of Olenivka and Mizhvodne depart frequently.
Getting to town
Chornomorske is very small, so you’re already in the city centre. The Tourist
Information centre is in a 3 minute walk from the bus station, so you can easily
drop by to get advice on accommodation, and directions to various sites and
destinations throughout the region.

KALOS-LIMEN
By Train
The closest train station to Chornomorske is in Yevpatoriya. However most train
connections operate only during the ‘high season’, from the beginning of June until
the end of September. The exception is the electric train (elektrichka). This runs
every few hours and is very inexpensive. (It’s a long trip with hard wooden seats-
so bring a cushion.) In the off season, October to the end of May, one would arrive
by train in Crimea at Simferopol Railway Station. A taxi to Chornomorske or other
nearby villages cost around 200-250Hr. The bus station “Kurortnaya”, is to the
left of the railway station. Buses depart to Chornomorske every 30-40 minutes,
cost around 45Hr, and the ride takes about 3 hours.

Kalos-Limen
By Plane
Simferopol State International Airport is the closest to Chornomorske. It can be
reached from Kyiv, Moscow, Istanbul and other destinations. The airport is about
20 kilometres west of Simferopol. It is a bit small but some effort has been made to
modernize the facility. Passport and customs officials should speak some English.
There are currency exchange offices (обмен валют) and an ATM (банкомат). Just
outside are several car rental agencies with fairly good rates.
Getting to town
Getting to Chornomorske will take you about 4 hours. First take a taxi to Simferopol
train station, which cost around 60Hr. For the budget traveller, buses leave roughly
every 30 minutes to the railway station. There is also a trolley bus which takes
a lot longer but costs next to nothing. Follow the above instructions on taking a
bus to Chornomorske.

At the end of the central beach of Chornomorske is an amazing historical and
cultural site, the ancient Greek settlement of Kalos-Limen. It was built by the
Greeks in the 4th century BC and existed until the 1st Century. Kalos-Limen
initially belonged to one of the most ancient settlements in Western Crimea,
most likely Kerkinitida, and later was ruled by Chersonesus Taurica. For a
long time there were disputes about the exact location of Kalos-Limen, which
is constantly mentioned in ancient writings. It was only after conducting
excavations on the outskirts of Chornomorske and the discovery of ruins
there that the pieces of the puzzle fell into place.
The uniqueness of this architectural sight is that not only was it well pre-
served, but also a variety of archaeological materials were discovered,
adding value to the history of the Northern Black Sea.
Kalos-Limen grew from a small village into a town. It prospered about half
a century, until the 7th decade of the 3rd Century BC, when the whole pen-
insula was invaded by Sarmatian tribes. Most of the villages were burned,
but Kalos-Limen survived, although as the excavations have proven, many
of its inhabitants were killed. The town was deserted, and revived only a
few decades later. Thanks to the strategically important and convenient
bay, it has kept its place in the history of Hellenistic Crimea.
At the end of the 2nd century BC Kalos-Limen was involved in the confron-
tation between the kingdom of Pontus and the Scythians and repeatedly
changed hands from one to the other.
The decisive battle was between commander Diophantus of Pont, who
arrived to rescue Chersonesos, and the army of the Scythians and Alans
which was fifty thousand strong.
The victory did not bring about the resurrection of Kalos-Limen. The settle-
ments on the Western Coast of Crimea were slowly destroyed and their ruins
were covered with sand. The famous harbour, which had sheltered merchant
and war ships, was gradually separated from the sea by a sandbar and has
become a shallow estuary. Today there is nothing left to remind us that
there was once a town, which bore the proud name of “Beautiful Harbour.”
There is a strong stone structure similar in shape to a pyramid that lies
amongst the ancient city’s remains. In the 18th Century, after Crimea was
joined to Russia, there was a small fortification there, and until the 20th
Century it was a border post. The purpose of this mysterious ‘pyramid’
was a mystery for a long time. Many theories of its origin were circulated,
some of them most incredible. Finally, in 1929 excavations were made
that clarified the matter.
In place of the “pyramid” in Kalos-Limen, there was a 16 meter high tower.
It was the tallest building in the fortress, which served as a lighthouse. The
basement of the tower stored different goods in case of a siege.
Getting there
Most of KaZantip population get to their home through
Yevpatoriya. However it isn’t a problem to get there from Chornomor-
ske. Popovka vallage is only 73 km away from here.
Getting inside
As entering almost every country to get inside the
KaZantip republic you need to get a visa first. We know that now holders
of U.S. and EU passports will be happy, cause their documents are valid
for free entry into Ukraine. But unfortunately for all of them, KaZantip
is a completely closed state and you’ll never get inside without some
struggle and the boring procedure of getting your visa.
Visa types
There are two types of Republican Viza:
1.
Plastic multiple
entry visa, granted for a month-long period, allows multiple entries into
the Republic (that’s exactly what you need).
2.
Single entry visa, or
transit visa, or tourist visa, valid for one and only visit and cancelled
as soon as the visitor leaves the territory of the Republic. Procedure
of issuing a multiple visa is very simple. You only need to show your
passport and to smile for the webcam at the Republican port of entry.
A multiple entry visa will cost you about €160; a single entry visa is
available for around €60. The visa department operates online from
the middle of March.

Where to stay
Popovka village and the town of Myrnyi are the near-
est places to the Republic where you could stay. Either has unique
features. It’s advisable to contact an agent which can help you arrange
your accommodation.
Popovka
is a five-street hamlet, a five-minute walk away from the
Kazantip - it will be no trouble to get back home from the beach in any
condition and anytime. Almost every house offers rooms for hire; the
prices vary from $15 to $150.
Myrnyi
is a small, block of flats town within 20 minutes of Kazantip,
where you can rent a multiple room apartment for your whole family
or group. It might be tiring to go back on foot at night-time after some
partying, so you can take a taxi for $10-20 according to night rate
double tariff. There is also a fresh fruit and vegetable market and many
small grocery stores around.
Kosa
(russian word for foreland) is a sand embankment between
Popovka and Mirniy separating the sea from the Donuzlav lake, about
15 minutes drive from Kazantip area. This place is quite distant and
calmy, and it will perfectly fit if you want to rest from heavy sounds
and day-and-night hangout. There are lots of comfortable villas and
hotels. The drawback is you can get there only by car. If you want to
stay in this place, you will also need an agent – natives are unlikely
to speak English.

Archaeologists discovered the remains of the town walls, several towers
guarding the gates, and strong angular houses. One of the buildings was
perfectly preserved; you can see it and imagine life in ancient times.
In the area of a huge Scythian ash hill, excavations revealed one more
surviving tower with a semi-submersible room, stairs of the fortress wall,
and the main entrance to Kalos-Limen.
In a section of road, ruins of Greek and Scythian houses can be seen in the
centre of the settlement. If you still want to see more unique findings, you
may visit the Museum of Kalos-Limen.

Discover Ukraine with
Electricity
Ukraine supplies its residents and visitors alike with electrical current of
220 volts AC, 50Hz. All sockets require two round pins, but not always of
the same size. Many thinner Russian sockets are being replaced by their
European cousins. Those with Russian sockets can buy a cheap adapter for
their European appliances. Adapters for more foreign electrical societies are
not easy to find in Chornomorske, so bring your own.
Language
The country’s official language is Ukrainian. Since independence in 1991, it
has become much more popular and widespread. Still, Russian is heavily used
in Crimea and Eastern Ukraine, and only in western regions is Ukrainian truly
predominant.
Money
The national currency is the
hryvnia (Hr)
, which replaced the transitional karbovanets
on September 2, 1996. Don’t be confused if your amount is given in roubles. You
haven’t been transported to Russia or taken back in time to the USSR - some people
just have trouble letting go of the past! Paper bills carry denominations of
1
,
2
,
5
,
10
,
50
,
100
,
200
and
500
hryvnias. Another word to the wise: two versions exist
of the

,
2
,
5
,
10
,
20
,
50
,
100
and

hryvnia bills, and both are accepted every-
where. There are 100 kopecks in a hryvnia, with 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50 kopeck and 1Hr
coins. You’ll have no problem finding currency exchange points, but rates are better
from central street kiosks. If it’s traveller’s checks you need to cash, look for a big
respectable-looking bank. You can find a number of ATMs around Chornomorske,
and some hotels and restaurants now take Visa and MasterCard - American Express
is not very popular. There have been scattered reports of credit card fraud in upscale
restaurants, though, so you may want to think twice before charging it.
Safety
They say that Ukrainians can spot a foreigner from a kilometre away. This fact alone
will not automatically make you the target of crime. Chornomorske is, in fact, a rather
safe place. As in most cities, flashing large amounts of cash can cause trouble.
Wallets are known to disappear in public transport crowds, so guard your pockets
at all times. Being very drunk and/or loud on the street is always a good way to at-
tract unwanted attention, especially from the police. By the way, it’s a good idea for
foreigners to carry at least a copy of their passport and visa with them at all times.
Smoking
You’re never too far away from a lit cigarette in Ukraine, and in some bars
and clubs the term second-hand smoke just doesn’t seem to matter. Smok-
ers enjoy a ridiculously cheap selection of cigarettes hawked by one of the
many
babushkas
and corner kiosks that are located throughout the city. Just
recently Ukraine outlawed smoking in most public places and the workplace,
except in specially designated areas. It is the responsibility of each company to
provide a designated area for all smoking patrons or personnel. These special
places can not exceed 10% of the total allotted area of the business. Since
this law is relatively new in Ukraine, not every business has begun to enforce it.
Kids will find all sorts of entertainment and activities here - a medium-size pool,
playgrounds, entertainers, and the chance to watch cartoons are at their disposal.
The hotel‘s extensive surrounding territory is fenced up and provides a sense of
security. Athletes (at least the amateur type) will appreciate the volleyball court,
the table tennis facilities and the next-door stadium, while the more passive types
will certainly find something tempting at the market, which can later on in the day
be grilled and happily consumed by the whole happy family in one of the complex‘s
patios.

Mlechnyi Put (The Milky Way) is no old-timer, but it‘s already found its devoted
clientele that admires the hotel‘s homestyle cooking (three times a day), cheap
prices, and 10-minute walk to the beach. The interior is very Soviet provincial in
style and there‘s no AC: guests will have to cope with the heat by staying in the
sea all day long. That, however, does not seem to be a problem: the people that
come here are sufficiently appreciative of the constant presence of hot water and
individual bathrooms.

Pivdennyi, located 800 m away from the water, has found its niche in curing old
wounds. Its therapeutic muds, baths, inhalations, and massages - each prescribed
after an individual consultation with a therapist - will send you back home revitalized
and with fewer pains in your head, back, joints, or lungs, not to mention with the
nervous system of a kid. The premises are not super luxurious, but they are new
and decent, without extra flashiness. The same goes for the territory all-around

Yahont is new

part of the town provides benefits: proximity to the city park, with its attractions,
and to the town‘s infrastructure in general. The waterfront is 400 m away, a good
but not tiring walk. Those who don‘t care about the beach can just stay on the
premises and enjoy the hotel‘s pool, or else play table tennis and billiards, or
get healthy in the sauna. The rooms are newly refurbished and fully equipped,
and the more expensive options have a sea view. The hotel certainly welcomes
everyone, but given the location (relatively distant from the beach) and lack of a
playground for kids, we sensed that this would be more of a stay for grown-ups.

Briz has made the at-

spacious, with comfortable furniture, although the gilded embellishments on the
walls and ceiling and bed curtains make it a bit too post-Soviet bourgeois to our
taste. The cheaper options are more restrained in terms of design. All the rooms
are fully equipped with the necessities and some pleasant extras (we particularly
liked the size of the bath in one of the better suites). The territory is one of the most
charming among the hotels in the area: full of blooming bushes and shady corners.
The large pool, which is lit up at night, and the cute little bridge like something
out of Monet add to the charm of the place. The location is a bit inland, but the
sea is just a short stretch away. Another pleasant point: kids will certainly enjoy
the mini aquatic park near the hotel.

faucets replaced, and new wallpaper has been hung. The territory is clean and the
personnel polite. Don’t expect extra luxury here - neither the price nor the overall
concept suggests it. The better suites have the full range of amenities, while the
cheaper ones have few (the shower, bathroom and TV are shared). Another exotic
detail of Soviet life - a (hot) water supply that works according to a schedule - is
also something you‘ll find here. Overall, you can expect an unpretentious stay two
minutes away from the public beach, warm bay waters for the kids to swim in, and
fascinating diving spots for grown-ups. The stay involves full room and board, but
there are alternative dining options nearby, in case you‘re not inclined towards the
establishment‘s take on post-Soviet cuisine. Other potentially useful places in a

Gorod’OK (the Town) is located inland, closer to the center of town. It
is a 20-minute walk away from the beach, which could represent a challenge for
some: luckily, there‘s a scheduled bus that circulates between the hotel and the
beach and the proximity of the town‘s central market and the stadium partially
makes up for the hassle. The actual place is cute, with its terracotta palette and
its abundance of rose bushes. Accommodations here are cheap and the rooms
look neat, but the showers, toilets, and fridges are usually shared between two
rooms. The owners claim that the place is great for kids and groups of athletes.
ESSENTIAL CIT Y GUIDES
Along the 120 km coastline of the Tarkhankut peninsula only 30
kilometres of it is accessible. A long cliff shore is interrupted with a
small but convenient harbour, where the ancient Greek city of Kalos-
Limen was founded. In Greek it means “a beautiful harbour” –if you
see it- you will know it’s true. Today this harbour is surrounded by
Chornomorske. The town is located 70 kilometres from Yevpatoria
and 150 kilometres from Simferopol. It is an actively developing
resort. Along with its lovely beaches, it is one of the most popular
places for diving in Ukraine. But let’s take a ride in Doc Brown’s
Delorian time machine and go back in time 2500 years.
The first inhabitants of Chornomorske were the Greeks, who
appeared on the shores of present day Uzkaya bay. This was during
the Greek colonization in the 4th century B.C. They founded a city,
Kalos-Limen, which was one of the most important centres of
agriculture, and was under the rule of the ancient Greek city-state
Chersonesos.
During the times of Crimean Khanate, the Akmezdzhyd Liman
settlement ( Ak-Mechet) was founded here.
At the same time period, according to archive documents, another
village was founded. It was situated on the Tarkhankut peninsula and
named Sheyhlar. For a long time both settlements were separately
included in maps. But with the lapse of time Sheyhlar and Ak-Mechet
merged into one settlement, Ak-Mechet, a name that lasted until
the 20th Century.
After Crimean annexation to Russia, the lands around Akmechet
Bay were granted to Count Voinovich, who commanded a squadron
of ships in Sevastopol. In 1824 these lands became the property
of Count Vorontsov, the governor-general of the Novorossiyk
Territory. Most of the lands were used for grazing the Count’s
sheep and camels. Count Vorontsov built the stone pier and the
Church of St Zachary & Elizabeth. In 1944, Ak-Mechet was renamed
Chornomorske.
The sea and the wind have left their marks on the coastal cliffs of
the Tarkhankut peninsula. The coastline abounds with shelters,
caves and niches. The walls of caves and grottoes are covered with
small brush stalactites, while the bottoms are littered with bizarre
stone sculptures.
While Chornomorske and the entire region is not a tourist mecca
these days, we believe that over time it will become one of the most
popular resorts in Ukraine.

it‘s become one of the best dining places in Chornomorske for everybody. Sit
either inside, with the dark wooden furniture and the rich design, or else outside
in a cosy arbor, but either way try their
shashlyk
, which the establishment is
famous for.

This is a truly beloved place that has practically
become a Chornomorske institution. As with all institutions, the service and food
quality vary from year to year, but it‘s generally satisfactory and people come here
on the basis of the place‘s reputation. The guests love the amazing
shashlyk
,
the post-Soviet pop (even in the karaoke version), the dancing, and the overall
loud fun of the type you get only in resort towns. Given the location right on the
waterfront, it‘s very convenient to eat here during the day, but at night the wind
off the sea can make it a bit chilly.

The coast of Tarkhankut Region
Olenivka is a small town located amidst the western Crimean
steppes. The sea is clean, the town is quiet, and the natural sur-
roundings are the main tourist draw. Picturesque creeks and deep
bays add up to swimming and diving heaven, while the more open
waters attract flocks of windsurfers. Not into extreme sports? The
therapeutic muds and shallow waters are great for older people and
kids.
Where to stay
Ekvator
Lenina 96G, Olenivka, tel. (+380) 6558 9 62 45, www.ekvator-more.
com.ua.
Travelling with kids might be a hassle, but coming to Ekvator with them
is the right decision. There‘s plenty of space to run around in, a great beach and
warm shallow waters for learning to swim in will make the stay at Olenevka‘s Ekvator
worthwhile. Lots of rooms have a sea view, with well-sized balconies for enjoying that
irresistibly mesmerizing sunset over the sea. All the rooms are similarly equipped and
furbished, and you pay extra for the view and for extra space in the room. Cleaning,
housekeeping, and food are on a level comparable to what you‘ll find at hotels in
Turkey, Egypt, or Greece. The activities are typical of those of area establishments:
billiards, playground, sauna, sports playground, and a grill available at guests’ request.
The latter might come in very handy for successful underwater hunters: the waters
are clean here and the catch can be quite satisfactory indeed. The food options are
not limited to the grill menu, though: the dining room offers simple meals three times
a day, while the Khutorok summer café offers a slightly more upscale menu. P.S. Note
that for a stay of less than five nights or on holiday weekends, you will be charged
15% more.

Solnechnaya Dolina
Yeleseeva 25B, Olenivka, tel. (+380) 6558 9 62 08,
www.sundolina.org.ua.
This major-scale resort hotel stands right on the coast.
Occupying what was once the park surrounding Earl Popov‘s estate (his elegant white
18th-century mansion now serves as one of the hotel‘s buildings), Solnechnaya Dolina
has a variety of accommodations scattered all around the place. Wooden bungalows,
a Soviet-era five-story building, and the above mentioned estate house, which is of
significant architectural and historical value, host a much more diverse crowd than other
hotels in the area do. The blooming grounds, the conference hall, the concert hall, and
the athletic premises allow for hosting all sorts of events, from theatrical festivals to
numerous yoga retreats, throughout the year. By summer the typical crowd consists of
families with kids who come here for sunbathing and swimming (the hotel‘s own beach is
fully equipped) and of youngsters who prefer diving (the hotel has its own diving center),
kiting, and windsurfing. The latter tend to settle in the hotel‘s special tent city, which
is capable of accommodating up to 300 people. All the rooms except for the tent city
are of relatively the same class (standard), and are equipped with AC and TV. Some of
the cheaper options require sharing a bathroom and fridge between two rooms. The
scale here allows for the creation of a mini-town, including a communications center,
a post, a movie theater, and a mini-zoo. That‘s in addition to the usual services, such
as excursions, a rental office, a sauna, a pool, a football field, and a library. In short, the
place is fully boredom-proof.

Mizhvodne is a tiny resort village on Crimea‘s northwestern tip. The
name, which means “between the waters,” is perfectly right - the
place is stuck between Arylgach bay, Yarylgach bay, and the actual
sea. Air smelling of the steppe and sea salt, the purest sea you‘ll
find on the Crimean coast, an abundance of sunny days, and soft
sandy beaches make Mizhvodne a very unique place that keeps its
guests coming back every year just to swim in the warm waters of
the bays or to dive, snorkel, windsurf and explore the treasures of
the local underwater world.
Where to stay
Golubaya Laguna resort
Sovetskaya 12A, Mizhvodne, tel. (+380) 6558

Staying here will produce a serious case of déjà vu among people who
remember the Soviet Union (and maybe even some nostalgia). That‘s because in
the old days people coming to Crimea would spend their
putevkas
- their typical
24-day all inclusive vacations - in places like this. Accommodations are inexpen-
sive and everything is there for you, but without much fuss. The good things
about this place are the café (the food is good and home-like) and the plentiful
vegetation, the roses in particular. Who knows? The proximity of the beach, good
food, and low prices might make this place worth a try, especially if you‘re young
and low maintenance. The resort operates from May to September.

Most people that have visited this tiny village
in Western Crimea have either stayed in this hotel or noticed it, and wanted to
stay there. We dare say that that feeling is justified: the place is located liter-
ally right over the beach, and there are new structures, a neatly thought-out
territory, a heated pool, and plenty of activities to choose from for both kids
and their parents. The rooms differ in terms of space, but all of them are fully
equipped with the necessary appliances. Security is strict and service is on a
respectable level. In general, the way things are run here guarantees guests a
decent and pleasant stay. There‘s a set of strict rules that every guest must
obey while staying in the hotel.
The village market and attractions for kids are just outside the hotel. At night,
though, the surrounding area turns into one whole disco, the sounds of which
inevitably penetrate the hotel. We hope, therefore, that the windows are properly
soundproofed.

Despite the bare outward appearance, these lands have been inhabited since
ancient times. In the Turkic language, Tarkhankut means ‘the place free from
payment of taxes, duties, endowed with privileges’. An earlier name given to the
cape was Eski Foros, meaning “old lighthouse”.
The origins of this old name came from ancient mariners passing by these
rocky shores. Greek triremes, ancient Russian boats, the high-speed chaikas
of Ukrainian Cossacks, and heavy Turkish ships are forever buried in the abyss
of this treacherous and unpredictable sea. At different times throughout history
Tarkhankut has been populated by Greeks, Scythians, Sarmatians, Pechenegs,
Tatars, freed serfs, escaped convicts and exiled military officers.
In the steppes around Tarkhankut 19 barrows were excavated. Relics, goods,
and burials of people from ancient civilizations were found.
At the beginning of the 20th century the population of Tarkhankut cape was small
and only a few scientists were interested in the area. The cape was unknown to
tourists and leisure seekers.
Now Tarkhankut is famous for its hospitality. Recreation centres and hotels are
popping out like mushrooms after the rain. The main resorts on the Tarkhankut
coast are in Chornomorske, Olenivka and Mizhvodne.
The north-eastern part of Tarkhankut is known as Dzhangul, and the south-eastern
as Atlesh. Another unforgettable place in Tarkhankut is ‘The Bowl of Love.’ It is
a natural pool, surrounded by boulders and got its name because of its heart
shape. Tarkhankut offers beautiful landscapes, wonderful beaches, interesting
excursions, horseback riding, scuba diving, windsurfing, fishing, and unusually
clear water. Today it is one of the cleanest places in Crimea. Stretching as far
as the eye can see are the pure, almost emerald green waters of the Black Sea.

A hundred meters from the bay Chucha at a depth of twelve meters there is a
unique museum of sculptures. Among the huge boulders covered with algae and
mussels, busts of Lenin, Dzerzhinsky and Kirov can be found. Since that time,
museum has been constantly updated. Today it holds about 40 exhibits.
