Balneology: healing springs in Dzhemet
Dzhemete is famous for its mud springs and mineral waters, which have healing properties.
Chembur Lake
- Coordinates on the map: 44.934724, 37.327822.
Chembur Lake is called the pearl of the Anapa region. It is located south of Upper Dzhemete.
There are many legends associated with the lake. The most impressive of them tells that centuries ago a war broke out on the shores of the lake. The enemy army killed hundreds of Kuban residents, drowning them in a swampy lake. The enemies threw a feast in honor of the victory, poured wine, called dancers...
And suddenly one of the Kuban residents rose from the swamp. His enemies wounded him, but did not kill him. The healing mud of Lake Chembur healed injuries and endowed the soldier with unprecedented strength. On his shoulders he carried his comrades out of the swamp, covered them with mud, and they also perked up. The revived army rushed to the attack and defeated the enemies.
Although in real life the mud of Chembur Lake is not endowed with the power to resurrect the dead, its healing properties are not in doubt. Highly colloidal silt, rising from the bottom of the lake, has a viscous, plastic consistency. Applied to the skin, it warms the body well and saturates the body with useful microelements. A visit to the lake is recommended for diseases of the digestive system, atherosclerosis, rheumatism and joint diseases.
In addition to its balneological value, Chembur Lake is an ecotourism destination. The shores of the lake are covered with green forests and lush grasses. A walk along eco-trails will provide you with pleasant time spent in the fresh air.
Not far from the lake there are fishing villages. Most often they hunt for rams. The ideal bait for this fish is a black worm that lives in coastal mud.
Balneological complex "Crystal"
- Address: Pionersky Prospekt, 23A.
Balneocomplex "Crystal" offers treatment based on hill and silt mud. The hill mud is of deep, volcanic origin. They are rich in minerals, including bromine, calcium, boron and iodine.
Silt mud is extracted from the bottom of lakes and rivers. They contain iodine and sulfur compounds, which are useful in treating inflammation and fungi. After taking a mud bath, the skin becomes soft and tender, like velvet, and multiple visits give a noticeable healing effect.
In addition to mud baths, the sanatorium offers mud massage, mineral showers and salt rooms. Before visiting, you should consult a doctor who will prescribe a course of treatment.
Mineral springs of the sanatorium "Rodnik"
- Address: Pionersky Prospekt, 30.
The sanatorium got its name due to the fact that on its territory there are several natural springs of mineral water with a unique composition.
The first source is well No. 29. The source originates in the mountains of the Caucasus Range, passes through various rocks, and mixes with rain and melt water from glaciers. All this saturates the source with gases and minerals. The composition of such water is similar to the composition of the waters of the Red Sea.
The second source is well No. 5-bis. The source flows from the Sea of Azov and corresponds to the Matsesta type. The composition includes many trace elements, including bromine, iodine and oxygen. Drinking water from this source is recommended for diseases of the respiratory tract and nervous system.
The third source was created artificially by combining the previous two and was called the “Anapa Spring”. You can try the “branded” mineral water in the pump room built on the territory of the sanatorium. There are no contraindications for taking water from the source. According to doctors, the active composition stimulates brain function, restores the immune system, improves skin condition and promotes weight loss.
Before visiting the springs, you should consult a doctor, since the effects of minerals are individual for each person.

What is a must-see on Sunny Island?
What visitors remember most in their responses are several attractions from the Jumping Jeeps series. The child can move in a circle, jumping on different “transport” - cars, horses and just trailers. Adults remember their achievements in bowling and show memorable photos of panoramas seen from the Ferris wheel.
The autodrome, familiar to Anapa from Soviet times, will allow children and their parents to embark on a dangerous adventure together. Electric cars push each other, it definitely takes courage. “Safari” is a circular journey around the flora and fauna of the African savannas, even though it’s made of plastic.
There is also a cafe here, which is worth talking about separately. The fact is that his main treat is ice cream. It has more than 10 varieties, which amazes young tourists. To prevent a sore throat afterward, drink hot drinks (chocolate, tea or coffee). The staff works conscientiously, always smiling at both children and adults...
As always, flying on the "Bell" - spinning and rising chairs hanging on chains, children and their mothers will scream loudly, forcing dads to frequently turn on the camera on their cameras. And schoolchildren will fly up to the third floor level on a trampoline, looking at everything that happens from the height of their extreme flight.
The amusement park space is well maintained. You can sit on benches among the lawns. There are sidewalks everywhere. Decorative plantings give the complex a special – “subtropical” – coziness. In this green area, children's animators almost every day hold noisy, funny shows, as well as exciting competitions. A 7D cinema is capable of immersing its viewers in several sensations at once - three-dimensional visual, auditory, tactile and even aromatic. Come and see for yourself.

Dinopark Rex
The dinosaur park occupies a huge area of over 1 hectare. Here are twenty figures of these animals from the prehistoric period, which are always popular with children.
The size of the figures is simply impressive and reaches up to 7 m in height and 33 m in length! Models of herbivores and predatory reptiles were created in such a way as to accurately convey their actual sizes.
A special delight is caused by the fact that they all move and make their natural sounds.
In addition to viewing the sculptures, children can jump on trampolines and visit a fun town. The park provides the opportunity to take as many free photographs as you like on the territory.
Square named after V.N. Avanesova
Address: Anapa, Krasnodar region, st. Papanintsev, near the Starfish beach, in front of the Rospotrebnadzor building.
Square named after V.N. Avanesova is very small in area and does not resemble a park in any way. Rather, it is perceived as a nice little place to relax.
There is a lot of southern Russian greenery, benches, paid binoculars and access to pebble beaches; the Lighthouse is located nearby.
Previously, souvenirs and other supplies were sold here, but now the fair is closed. There is access to the Anapa Memory Alley.
Historical information: century-old construction
The history of the park dates back to 1979. The opening was timed to coincide with International Children's Day. That is why it received such a not so original name.
In 2010, destructive processes began in this territory: private individuals seized state land. Everything was done legally, but the goal of the new owners was only to make a profit.
No one was going to invest in improving the landmark and preserving its essence. The square was filled with a cloud of merchants. But after disputes and legal proceedings, the mayor's office liquidated the shopping arcades and cafes and restored cleanliness and order.
Today, the main task is to maintain the current situation and begin active improvement of the clearing located on the island. An investor was found who is ready to invest in construction, create a park and install fun attractions.
The Jungle Book project is the name of an entertainment complex that is set to grow here. The children's park in Anapa is capable of developing the imagination of little guests, giving a lot of positive emotions and impressive memories.
