The festival is held at the recreation center «Zagar» — from the Black Sea coast, in the first line, in the ecologically clean resort area Zatoka (Karolino-Bugaz), on the unique sandy Karolino-Bugaz spit, washed from the south by the Black Sea, and from the north — the fresh waters of the Dniester estuary, 50 km from Odessa. Clean sea and a mixture of steppe and sea air will give vacationers a charge of health. Due to its unique climatic conditions, this sandy spit has always been considered an elite place of rest. And the air rich in iodine content, the sun, the microclimate of the estuary, magnificent sandy beaches of white sea sand containing quartz, phosphorus, iodine compounds, sea salts — all this in combination contributes to a full-fledged rest and recovery of people.
