And if you can combine useful with a pleasant, mud treatment with a rest at sea, the best thing is to choose a resting place near the city of Anapa.

This city is traditionally considered a children's resort. On the beaches everything is arranged with the benefit and interest for children, the sea is shallow, there are frog paddocks, in the city there are places where in the summer you can have a great time with the children.

But not only children will take with joy the city of Anapa. The volcano Tizdar, located nearby, awaits adults on mud baths. It is a small pond that is in the vest of an ancient volcano. Swim in it nicely, dirt pushes the body, not allowing to plunge deeply.

Location:

Since ancient times, people have deified natural phenomena, since they did not understand their nature. Volcanoes are one of the most incomprehensible "creatures" on the planet. Their sudden eruptions, fire pillars - all this was terrible to the ancient man. Volcano Tizdar is also known since ancient times. It is located in the Azov Sea, which communicates with the Atlantic Ocean. Great water also always frightened people, although the science of seafaring gradually developed in a positive way.

After the Pacific Ocean on the map of the Earth the largest is the Atlantic Ocean. It occupies the entire space between Iceland and Greenland (north), Africa and Europe (east), two Americas (east), and from the south it is limited by Antarctica. This is truly a huge water space, which is currently crossed faster by air than by water.

The name of the ocean gave the name of the ancient Greek titan Atlanta (or Atlas, by other options). The shore line of this huge pond is diverse, includes bays and seas. However, the area of coastal seas does not exceed one percent of the entire ocean area.

Features of this water area

One of such coastal reservoirs is the Sea of Azov. Mud volcano Tizdar is its main attraction. But we can say about this water area and the fact that:

• The sea is not closed, that is, it communicates with the ocean;
• The Sea of Azov is reported with the ocean by the complex path of the seas and bays, among which is the Black Sea;
• The sea is one of the shallowest reservoirs in the world, since its average depth does not exceed eight meters;
• In the XX century, over the years, the rivers that flowed into this sea were blocked to create reservoirs, and the flow of fresh water to the Azov decreased. As a consequence, the sea became more saline for the 20th century.

How to go?

150 meters from the Sea of Azov is the volcano Tizdar. How to get there from Anapa, you can not think, but join one of the many excursions.

On the way there are many cafes and roadside restaurants, where you can eat and rest, especially if you are traveling with children.

Images of this place are pictures of children and adults, who happily bathe in the mud. It is the dream of many people from childhood - to be well smeared in a sticky dark mass.

After bathing in a mud source, many people, going towards the sea, collect dirt with themselves into bottles, and from one person you can collect up to two liters of mud! Since it is strictly forbidden to take dirt out of the mud source, people collect it from themselves.

Mud

The mud volcano of Tizdar is also called the "Blue Balka". Gray-blue mud became the basis for this second name. The source of this useful substance is the crater, and its reserves are constantly replenished from the depths of the volcano. The scientists calculated that the depth of the source is about twenty-five meters, but it's impossible to check this simple man: as already mentioned, it is impossible to dive into the mud. But floundering on the surface of the source is truly beneficial for health and spirit!

Dirt can be washed away not only in the sea. On the territory of the tourist complex there are modern shower cabins, where you can wash with fresh water. Water procedures are doubly pleasing, as the body gets tired after fighting with medical mud, and it is irresistibly desirable to sleep. The shower can both calm and cheer. In addition to the shower, you can get cheerfulness of the spirit and with the help of tasting of excellent varieties of tea.
