The Crimean peninsula occupies a small territory but its strategic geographical position, on the borders of Russia, the Caucasus, Europe and the Middle East, attracts envy. At the same attitude as the south of France, Crimea benefits from a particular climate. Two climatic zones separate the peninsula: to the north a temperate zone and to the south an area with a Mediterranean-type climate.

The Crimean mountain ranges separate the two regions where one can often see great differences in temperature. 207 km separate the north of the Crimean peninsula (Perekop Isthmus) from the extreme southern point (Cape Sarych) Between the west (Tarhankut peninsula) and the east (Cape Fonar Kertch) the distance is 324 km.
