Temperature in other resorts compared to Sochi's 16°C seawater
So, dude, let's take a dive into the Russian coastal waters, shall we?
The Black Sea off Sochi has chilled out big time, dropping to a balmy 16°C. Now, that's some icy cold water for a summer splash!
On the 14th of June, the Krasnodar Center for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring spilled the beans about the sea water temps around.
The Azov Sea in Yeisk is practically a hot tub, reaching 25°C. The Black Sea water in Temryuk and Primorsko-Akhtarsk isn't far behind, hovering around 24°C and 23°C respectively.
Now, if you're thinking about hitting the beach in Anapa, you'll be pleased to know the Black Sea there is toasty at 23°C. Novorossiysk isn't far behind with water temperatures at 22°C, and Gelendzhik clocks in at 21°C. But if you're slumming it in Sochi, expect a bracing 16°C dunk.
Remember, a new beach has popped up in Gelendzhik's Blue Bay microdistrict. Folks say the water's cleaner than the city center.
Now here's the lowdown on the beaches. According to Yuga.ru, starting from September 1, Russians won't be allowed to bring their furry friends to the coast. Guide dogs excluded, of course.
Now, while we don't have detailed data on the exact water temperatures for all areas mentioned, we can make some educated guesses based on other regions. The Sea of Azov typically hits around 25°C in June, rising to 28°C by July. The Black Sea might be similarly warm, given the region's air temperatures (27°C to 32°C) in summer. For specific locations like Novorossiysk or Gelendzhik, it's best to check with local forecasts.
So there you have it, mate. Now go catch some rays… or shiver your ass off!
In discussion of the Russian coastal waters, the Black Sea off Sochi, surprisingly, has cooled down significantly, dropping to a temperature of 16°C. This contrasts with the Azov Sea in Yeisk, which is quite balmy at 25°C, and the water temperatures in other areas such as Temryuk, Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Anapa, Novorossiysk, and Gelendzhik are also quite warm according to the data. However, science and environmental-science suggest that the Black Sea might warm up in the coming months due to the region's high summer temperatures.
