Every summer hundreds of students of the KPI have a rest on the Black Sea coast in the health complex that is situated in the village of Lazurne in 30 km from Skadovsk. Lazurne derived its name from unusual change of color of sea water. Along with Lazurne there is a Dzharylgatska gulf which is famous for medical water-inhabiting plants. Such neighborhood transforms beneficial sea air into medical cocktail: water and air are oxygenated, enriched with salts of bromine, chlorine and iodine. It creates good conditions for a relaxation and prevention of respiratory diseases. But recently jellyfishes started to visit coastal waters, and waves throw away the sea grass on shore. However all inconveniences are compensated by the warm and beautiful sea, good mood and hospitality of employees of the health complex.
The holidaymakers live in the 6-storeyed building which is situated 100 meters from the seashore, in rooms can live two or three people. The building is connected with a dining room on 500 seats by covered way. There are equipped sports grounds for volleyball games, soccer with all necessary sport goods. Students live in 4 one-storey houses, which are reconstructed from children's camp, in rooms on four, five or six people. All conveniences are on the street. This year some of students managed to settle in double rooms on the top floors of the buildings.
The health complex “Mayak” combines recreation centre and flying prophylactic sanatorium which provides with medical procedures and nourishment. There are three meals including vegetables, fruit and cultured milk products. The food is dished out by waitresses.
