Fiolent (Crimea) - a piece of paradise on Sevastopol earth

Fiolent (Crimea) - this is the cape, located between Sevastopol and Balaklava. However, these are not two separate cities, as one might think. Balaklava is the region of Sevastopol itself. Namely, its name implies the central part of the city. So if you really want to get there, but there are doubts about the road and the time spent on it, you can not worry - everything is nearby.

Origin

Cape Fiolent (Crimea) has a few more names, besides this, the most popular. It is often referred to as Parthenum (Greek), Felenk-Burun (Turkish). And sometimes even the cape of St. George. But most tourists it is known exactly under the name Fiolent. Crimea is rich in amazing places, but this cape is considered one of the most beautiful among them. It has a volcanic origin and even from the side resembles the remains of a once erupted volcano. Strictly speaking, it was, but a long time ago - 150 000 000 years ago.

It should also be known that the name Fiolent extends to the territory adjacent to the cape (approximately 10 kilometers). Despite the fact that this cape was a volcano in the past, it attracts tourists. Sheer cliffs, incredibly clear sea and stunning views - all this attracts them.

Local beauties

Jasper beach, silence, seclusion, tranquility, tasty smelling almond blossoms, virgin nature, rocky shore ... Fiolent is a real storehouse of natural attractions. A pebble beach - it's generally a separate topic. They are fighting on the spot. From these places do not want to leave - that's why many tourists who have already visited here once, for the second time take a tent with them and stay for the night, or even two.

Many are interested in the question: "How do I get to the beaches, if it's a cape?" Here there is a small nuance. If you want to have fun and visit this "paradise", you will have to overcome some obstacles. For example, to descend to Tsarskoe Selo (the name of one of the beaches is called), you will have to overcome 800 "steps". More precisely, these are not stairs, but landslides and cut down slopes. You need to be careful - watch the road and stick to the branches of trees. Although here and there on the road there are even benches. The most difficult thing is not to go down, but to climb back again. Everyone is familiar with this pleasant fatigue after the sea, the sun and several hours of beach rest. So you need to be ready for this.

Marine species

Fiolent (Crimea) is an ideal place for diving. And just to swim. This is an inexpressible sensation - the purest water in which to plunge after a heavy descent through the heat - the peak of pleasure. The snowy bottom can be seen even if you sail to where the depth will be more than 10 meters. After such a beach, the tourist does not want to return to the usual city, where every square centimeter is "hammered", and in the water it is unclear what garbage is floating. No, Fiolent (Crimea) - rest quite different order. This place really looks like a piece of paradise.

A real pleasure for aesthetes

In addition to the vast sea spaces, fascinating view, here you can admire the rare plants. For example, a pistachio is a tusk. By the way, it is very ancient and even relict plant. It is unique - it perfectly tolerates any weather, whether it is unbearable heat, torrential rain or fierce winter (in Crimea it happens rarely, but still). The fragrant juniper is, you can say, a symbol of the flora of the peninsula. Some shrubs here for a thousand years! Rocky mighty oak, fragrant jasmine, figs, cornelian - you can find anything here.

St. George Monastery, the picturesque grotto of Diana, the rocks - there are many interesting and exciting places. Many people go here to have a good time. I must say, more than once after this come back.
