Stanitsa Golubitskaya: attractions and activities

When choosing a location on the coast of the Azov Sea, you should take into account your preferences and wishes for infrastructure. Golubitskaya is a fairly quiet place where you won’t find sophisticated entertainment during the day. I would say that this is the optimal place to come here on vacation with children: the entire infrastructure is designed specifically for this, the Sea of ​​Azov is also conducive to this.

Where to go in Golubitskaya with children?

Crocodile farm

• Sovetskaya, 149.

The building of the crocodilarium already attracts the attention of visitors from afar. Here it is not difficult to see various representatives of the crocodile family - alligators, caimans, and crocodiles of various sizes (from 50 cm to 3.5 m).

Keepers demonstrate all the wonders of training these unsociable animals. Undoubtedly the most exciting act is the feeding of the inhabitants. The trainer places not only meat, but also his own hand into the predator’s mouth, which delights the visitors. At the very last moment, he deftly pulls it away and the three-meter giant is left to enjoy only his usual food.

In addition to predatory animals, raccoons, turtles, goats, guinea pigs, as well as a fox and a husky puppy comfortably live here. Children of different ages really like them all, and your children will be able to look at them too.

Dolphinarium "Nemo"

• Kurortnaya, 3.

A visit to the dolphinarium is an unforgettable day for children and their parents. During the hour-long performance, his artists will show tricks that will leave positive emotions for a long time. At the show, bottlenose dolphins draw, compete in agility and speed, sing and dive in search of objects.

In addition to the main actors - dolphins, the performance includes fur seals and a lion, who also consider themselves key stars on the stage of this Golubitskaya landmark. Nemo offers dolphin therapy sessions, which help in the treatment of many diseases.

Zoo "Lukomorye"

• Embankment, 1a.

“Lukomorye” is the only zoo in all of Taman. The cutest animals are located very comfortably in its enclosures. The list of inhabitants is large - from Madagascar cockroaches to formidable crocodiles. The local pride is the Egyptian spur tortoise and the sparrowhawk.

There is also a contact mini-aviary with rodents. The kids will be able to have a lot of fun with the hamsters and guinea pigs. Prices for visiting the menagerie are reasonable. Children under 5 years old have free admission, which is already appreciated by tourists and travelers who decide to relax north of Anapa.

Sea

Of course, 100% of Russians go to the sea in the summer for a beach holiday. We can say that the main attraction of Golubitskaya is the beach. Its covering is sand and small shells, which is convenient for vacationers with children. On such a beach, children always have plenty of material to build “fortresses” and bake “cakes.” Another pleasant feature of the beach is that the seabed here is almost perfectly flat, sandy, clean, without boulders, and the depth does not begin immediately. This is an ideal place to relax with young children.

The beach also has its drawbacks. Firstly, it is narrow, so it is difficult to find free places during the season. Secondly, it is poorly equipped. According to reviews, toilets and changing cabins have not yet been built here, nor has a rescue tower. The service is organized by annoying traders of all sorts of things and entrepreneurs offering water entertainment in the form of banana boat rides, jet skis and so on.

Fun for the whole family

Amazon Waterpark

• Kurortnaya, 76.

But in the village of Golubitskaya, the attractions and entertainment do not end there. The Amazon water park has become famous throughout the Krasnodar region. It is one of the largest in the entire area. Many come here from Temryuk.

Everything is provided for relaxation here: slopes, swimming pools, playgrounds, cafes and even a wine tasting room. For fishing enthusiasts there is a pond where you can catch fish. The slides in the water park vary in height and angle of inclination. The highest height reaches 25 m. The thrill of sliding down from such a level of ascent is breathtaking.

For kids there are safe mini-slides located in a separate part of the park. Children especially like the fountains and the ship for playing on land. Tired of extreme fun, visitors can relax on sun loungers by the swimming pool and have a snack in the cafe.

Upside Down House

• near the Dolphinarium.

Being an unusual structure, this house attracts everyone - from young to old. Everything about it is turned upside down. The furniture here is real, there is no cardboard imitation. Once inside, it’s like being transported to another dimension.

After an excursion it is easy to lose orientation in space. Entering the room, it’s easy to trip over the chandelier, and it’s simply impossible to rest in the chair – it’s on the ceiling. Many people only move along the wall to avoid falling. The vestibular apparatus is in shock!

"Lukomorye"

This is the name of the zoo, located at the address: st. Embankment, 1a. Both children and adults vacationing in Golubitskaya visit the Lukomorye Zoo with great interest.

There are a lot of animals and birds here. They all live in spacious enclosures in which conditions are created that are close to their natural habitat. There is an area in the zoo with predators. Here you can see lions, Himalayan bears, wolves, tigers, foxes and other animals. There are even very rare white tigers and black wolves here.

The zoo also has areas with monkeys, artiodactyls, reptiles, and rodents. Many animals (not dangerous) can be fed with food that is sold on the zoo premises specifically for this purpose. Anyone can pet the animal, and even take a photo with some of them.

An entrance ticket for adults to the Lukomorye Zoo in Golubitskaya costs 500 rubles, and for children over 5 years old - 400 rubles. Visitors have different opinions about the zoo. Most tourists consider it an excellent place to visit with children, where they can take care of animals and learn to love them.

What to see in Golubitskaya from nature?

Lotus Valley on the Akhtanizovsky Estuary

• 45.288701, 37.222316.

The Lotus Valley is one of the most exciting excursions in this area. A visit is interesting during the lotus flowering period, namely in July and August. The road to the facility takes no more than 15 minutes. These flowers were brought to Taman from India a long time ago, but they took root only on the Akhtanizovsky Estuary.

Walks around the reservoir are carried out by boat. The contemplation of these extraordinary beauty of plants will leave an unforgettable impression. However, the estuary itself is beautiful not only when the lotuses are in bloom. There is picturesque nature all around, there is a lot of fish. Herons, cranes and pelicans have found their home here.

Golubitskoe mud lake

• 45.330319, 37.262803

The healing lake is located not far from the main beach “Sea Breeze”, only 50 m away. It is shallow and its length is about 500 m. The mud at the bottom - thanks to the unique combination of bromine, iodine, hydrogen sulfide and calcium - is considered medicinal. Perhaps it can be included in the list of the main natural attractions of Golubitskaya.

Not a single vacationer will pass by the unique opportunity to improve their health at sea. Tourists are smeared with healing mud from head to toe. Reviews from holidaymakers say that it is truly healing. Many people even collect it in reserve. And the photos turn out simply amazing.

How to get there

Temryuk - Golubitskaya

The easiest option is to get to Golubitskaya from the largest regional center of the Taman Peninsula - the city of Temryuk. Minibuses run between Temryuk and Golubitskaya almost every 15 minutes.

But you can get to Temryuk from different cities of the Krasnodar Territory and Crimea by bus ( schedule here ):

• from Anapa.
• from Novorossiysk,
• from Yalta.

From Anapa, Novorossiysk, etc.

The easiest and not so tiring thing is to get to Anapa, Novorossiysk (or Tonnelnaya station) and order a transfer by car directly to Golubitskaya.

Architectural monument of the village

Church of Panteleimon the Healer

• Red, 145.

Panteleimon Church is the most important architectural landmark of the resort village. It was founded in 2007 on the site of a destroyed temple back in the 30s. last century. The building of the sacred object is made of brick; it is decorated with 5 gilded domes, visible outside the village.

The ringing of the bell, which weighs 400 kg and fits in a three-tier bell tower, can also be heard behind Golubitskaya. There is a delightful iconostasis inside the cathedral. In general, this is an ideal place at the resort to retire, pray to God and light a candle to the saint, who was one of the outstanding biblical healers.

The northern outskirts of Taman will help you enjoy not only the excellent sandy shores of the Azov Sea. Attractions in the station. Golubitskaya will be a wonderful change from lazy beach time. Although you won’t find any outstanding historical monuments here, a lot of entertainment, beautiful scenery and healing mud, excellent fishing and extreme water slides will forever leave pleasant memories of your vacation in your heart!

Where to stay

A map of attractions will help you “orient yourself to the area” and choose a hotel or apartment. It is worth saying that everything is not limited to the central beach: many guest complexes have their own beaches. This is how we rested:

The territory is fenced, has its own swing and its own access to the sea.

On the hotel map you can choose a suitable option at a price that starts from several hundred rubles!!!

Or you can stay in the private sector. By the way, using my link you can get a discount of 2100 rubles for booking accommodation in Golubitskaya .

Amusement park and circus

Among the entertainment for children in Golubitskaya, I would like to highlight a park with various attractions located on Kurortny Boulevard.

This is one of the most fun places where kids can frolic all day long. There are several inflatable trampolines, swings, carousels, a Ferris wheel, roller coasters, and mazes. Prices vary from 50 to 150 rubles. Mostly people come here in the evening when the heat subsides. In the park you can not only ride, but also have a snack. There are several cafes here. There is a circus tent next to the park. There are different troupes performing here. The entrance ticket costs 200 rubles.

Best time to relax

The village has a warm, moderately humid climate, suitable for the health of children. Quite comfortable temperatures for relaxation are established in May and last until October. The shallow sea warms up towards the end of spring, and you can swim in September.

The sun shines all summer, but due to the proximity of the sea, the street thermometer in Golubitskaya does not exceed +30 ºC. The early start of the season and the child-friendly climate played a role in the growing popularity of the village among family vacationers.

Dinopark

You should definitely come here with your children. This park features moving and roaring dinosaur models that you can touch. Some even allow you to climb ladders.

In addition, there is a so-called petting zoo, which has a small pen with a dozen rabbits, a play park and exotic birds kept in small enclosures.

Dinopark is located at: st. Embankment, 3. Entrance ticket for adults costs 400 rubles, and for children 300 rubles. Opinions about this entertainment facility vary. All visitors like the fact that the park has sun canopies. Another plus is that the dinosaur models can be touched with your hands. Disadvantages include an unkempt play park and poor conditions for keeping rabbits and birds.
