Romantic Getaways Yerevan
While Yerevan itself doesn’t have large bodies of water within the city limits for traditional water activities, there are some options within a reasonable distance:
Lake Sevan:
- Distance: Approximately 1 hour drive from Yerevan.
- Activities: Swimming, boating (kayaks, paddleboats), jet skiing, windsurfing. Lake Sevan is Armenia’s largest lake and offers stunning views. You can find rental places for water sports equipment near the shore.
Tips:
- The best time to visit Lake Sevan for swimming is during the summer months (June - August).
- Be sure to bring sunscreen, a hat, and plenty of water as the sun can be strong at higher altitudes.
- Check weather conditions before heading out, as Lake Sevan can experience sudden changes in wind and temperature.
