One of the main joys of summer is relaxing on the shore of a lake or river, under the scorching sun at the height of the day or under the calm sunset sky. Relaxing and having fun on the beach is a great idea. However, you need to figure out which of them are beautiful and well-appointed enough, and most importantly, safe for health and comply with sanitary standards, in order to devote time to them. Below are the beaches where swimming is officially allowed in 2016.
A family beach where it’s good to spend time with children and a large group. This swimming area has not only an equipped beach, but also a children’s playground with an excellent environment, the “Barsky Domik” restaurant with a varied delicious menu, and even its own small zoo. Serebryany Bor lives up to its name: relaxing on the shore in a pine forest provides an incredible experience. Beach address - st. Tamanskaya, beach No. 2. The entrance is free.

All this is quite expensive, but done at a high level.

Located at Akademika Vinogradov St., 12. In recent years, local authorities have done a good job of improving the reservoir, updating the coastlines, restoring the embankment, and civilized benches and sun loungers, ladders and bridges appeared on the beach.

Finally, the yacht club provides not only yachts, but also boats, scooters and skateboards, as well as everything you need for windsurfing.

Mikhail Grizzlykolesa.ru
A lake with real blue water, surrounded by tall pine trees, is located in the village of Fosforitny near Voskresensk. Once upon a time, phosphate rock was mined in these places, which is why a lake formed here. Mud sometimes appears in the lake, but, according to rumors, it is removed - both by the vacationers themselves and by the services. Vacationers say that the water here is quite cold even in hot weather, but it is very beautiful here and there are few people.
You can get to Blue Lake by train in 2 hours (train + 24 bus “Voskresensk-Fosforitny”). By car, most likely, a little longer. True, it all depends on the point of departure. Access to the lake is made difficult by the fact that there is no road, so it is better not to go there after rain.
Istra Reservoir
webmandry.com
One of the largest and most popular reservoirs in the Moscow region. It was created in the 1930s to supply water to Moscow. The basis of the reservoir is a dam near the village of Rakovo, built in 1935 through the efforts of prisoners of the White Sea-Baltic OGPU camp and the Dmitrov OGPU camp. There are beautiful landscapes, many tourist centers and holiday homes. You can go fishing, barbecue, wander along the long sandy beaches, pitch a tent or rent a summer house and, of course, swim. The greatest depth of the reservoir is 23 meters.
You can get to Istra by train from Rizhsky Station, the journey will take about an hour and a quarter. After this, you need to transfer to bus 32, which will take you to the Lechishchevo Village stop. It takes the same amount of time to travel by car, excluding traffic jams.
Pirogovskoye Reservoir
msmap.ru/lakes/1635
The reservoir is part of the Klyazma reservoir, located on the territory of the Moscow region. The average water depth is 5-8 meters. Unfortunately, only part of the sandy shore (Pirogovsky beach) here is landscaped, but this does not interfere with enjoying the beauty of these places - you can walk a couple of kilometers and find yourself on the other side of the reservoir: there are fewer people there, and the water is deeper...
The number of different fish that live here testifies to the purity of the water; swimming here is not only possible, but necessary! The coast is quite uneven, so setting up a tent may be difficult, and there are usually a lot of people here. But you can catch fish, fry it over a fire and sing songs with a guitar. There are also barges floating here, and watching them is a real pleasure.
You can get there by car, but it’s better to do it before the weekend, otherwise you risk getting stuck in traffic for half a day. It’s easier by train - from the Yaroslavsky station, all commuter trains pass through the Mytishchi station. There you need to get off and change to a bus or minibus that goes to the Pirogovo station. You can also get there from the Medvedkovo metro station without transfers.
Senezhskoye Lake
msmap.ru/lakes/1627/photos/2972
Lake Senezh is located near Solnechnogorsk. The water there is often warm because the lake is shallow and heats up quickly. There are no amenities here, as well as parking and cafes, but the water is clean and there is no garbage on the shore. There are two beaches around the lake, which are located at some distance from each other. Here you can fish, sunbathe and enjoy summer days by the water.
Getting to the lake is easy: from the Leningradsky railway station to the Podsolnechnaya station, by bus No. 440 from the Voykovskaya metro station to Solnechnogorsk, or from the Yugo-Zapadnaya, Salaryevo and Rumyantsevo metro stations. The journey from the center of Moscow by public transport can take from one and a half to three hours, depending on the time of day.
Moscow is a metropolis where everyone will find entertainment to their liking. In summer, the beaches are popular, where you can sunbathe and swim to your heart's content. The capital has both paid and free beaches, where summer holidays turn into a walk in nature.
