Anapa received the status of a resort of federal significance.
The corresponding decision was published on the federal legal information portal. Now the area with an area of 98,186 dunams is officially recognized as a resort at the federal level, which means improved sanitary protection and infrastructure development at the state level.
For Anapa, this decision is particularly important: the health resort industry remains one of the keys to the city. In 2024, the resort received 5.5 million tourists, a 10% increase compared to the previous year. Despite the restrictions on the beach season in 2025, Anapa maintains its position as one of the main recreation centers in southern Russia.
