Rest in Sousse and an independent trip to Carthage
This year, in early May, we decided to warm up with my husband and fly to the sea. The choice fell on Tunisia, and more specifically – the resort of Sousse, as we were approached by the ratio of price and quality. Of course, I expected a scorching sun and at least a little warm sea, and so I took a whole suitcase of summer clothes. Unfortunately, more than half did not come in handy for me, I went about where I flew from St. Petersburg. The beginning of May is Tunisian spring, the water has not yet warmed up, its temperature is no more than 16 degrees. Sometimes during the day it was possible to bask in the sun, but in the evening most often the temperature dropped to 15 degrees Celsius, plus a cold wind blew. But on excursions we were not knocked down by the sultry heat, as it would be when traveling to Tunisia in July or August! And the ideal time for a beach holiday is September, the velvet season. Warm sea, comfortable air temperature. Continue reading
Youth holidays in Tunisia
It so happened that my two friends got married in September with a weekly difference, and we decided to fly out to the sea for a week with a company of 4 girls and celebrate a bachelorette party there. Moreover, there was a good offer to stay at the Marhaba Palace Hotel, this is a good four right on the beach. We arrived on September 3 at 6 in the morning, and in anticipation of the time of settlement we went to the sea. The beach is cool, fine white sand, there are many places, the sea is warm. The only thing that upset at first was the huge amount of algae and the peculiar smell from them all over the beach. But then a man from the hotel staff came and began to clean the whole thing, and by the dinner the seaweed was gone. For a couple of days in the morning, the sea was zealously cleaned, and then the algae disappeared on their own. But the staff regularly looked after the beach, the cleanliness is perfect. In general, the weather in September is considered the most comfortable here, in August it is still hot, and in October it is already cool. Continue reading
Great stay in Pattaya.
We chose our choice in Thailand, the resort of Pattaya. According to the travel agent, Pattaya is a small resort, modern, many Russians, there are no problems in language exchange. We flew in late April, when the Thais celebrate the new year in their chronology. A good season to relax, it is not very hot, but there is no rain.
We stayed at the Pattaya Park 3 * hotel. On the sites we read that the hotels in Pattaya are distinguished by their “fatigue” and not well-groomed, which we saw. Old furniture, ragged walls, high humidity left traces everywhere. But the room itself was quite comfortable, and everything necessary for living was provided. The great advantage of the hotel was its location, on the 1st coastline, and the presence of markets, cafes, next to the hotel.
Free time from excursions and beach vacations, we walked along the city streets. True, this is not entirely safe for life, since there are few sidewalks for pedestrians, and I mainly had to walk along the carriageway, where crazy rickshaws, cars, and cyclists ride. Continue reading
