Summer is the season of vacations and beach holidays. It is at this time of the year that most people go on a trip to seaside resorts. For some, resting at the sea is a beautiful tan, for others - warm and healthy salty water, for the rest, clean sand and a favorable climate are important.
Red sea
The air here is very dry, its humidity is no more than 30%, it is saturated with oxygen and has a beneficial effect on the nervous system. The northwest wind blows here almost all year long, so the heat of 40 ° C is tolerated quite easily. But excessive dryness of the air can sometimes lead to dryness of the mucous membranes.
It is the warmest, transparent and saltiest sea in the whole world, not a single river flows into it. One liter of Red Sea water contains about 41 g of salt. This factor has a wound healing effect, and also helps to heal the symptoms of many skin diseases. A fairly large number of poisonous and dangerous creatures are found in the Red Sea. Therefore, it is not recommended to swim behind special barriers.
It is quite easy to get burned on the shore. The radiation from the sun is very active, and the wind creates a phantom cool feeling. It is not recommended to stay in the open sun between 11 and 16 o'clock in the afternoon. The Red Sea is best suited for relaxation for lovers of warm and clear water, as well as for diving.
Mediterranean Sea
In the summertime, the local air heats up to 40 ° C in the south and up to 25 ° C in the north. On islands such as Corsica, Sardinia, Crete and Sicily, the wind saves you from the heat. The climate would be quite similar to that of the Red Sea, but it can be very stuffy here due to the high humidity, more than 50%. In July-August, it is optimal to have a rest in southern France, northeastern Italy or northern Croatia. In September, you can go anywhere, there is no heat, and the sea is still warm.
The water of the Mediterranean Sea is considered the second richest in various salts after the water of the Red Sea. In resort towns, the water is clear and clean, and also very warm. Compared to the Red Sea, there are no particularly dangerous fish or creatures in the Mediterranean waters that could harm humans. Therefore, the Mediterranean Sea is practically the best option for families with children.
Caribbean sea
The coastline of the Caribbean Sea is heavily indented in places, sometimes there are mountainous cliffs. Shallow areas are mostly coral, so you can cut your feet when swimming barefoot. The average air temperature ranges from 23 to 27 ° C. The climate is warm, the beaches are beautiful, and the water is clear and clean. Also, scuba diving enthusiasts will discover the amazing and rich world of the local marine fauna. But there are also quite dangerous creatures and fish that can harm humans. Holidays in the Caribbean are not cheap. It is perfect for fans of exoticism, thrills and night parties.
Aegean Sea
Semi-enclosed sea with over 2000 islands. The swimming season here begins in May and ends in October. The water here is clear, clean, warm, with a slightly emerald hue. The water is only a couple of degrees colder than the Mediterranean Sea. There are no dangerous predators or poisonous creatures here, but periodic storms do occur in August. The Aegean Sea is ideal for families with children or for people who prefer calmness, warm water, light breezes and gentle sun.
