Lake Balkhash is a wonderful place, the water is clean, warm, the bottom is sandy, There are a lot of fish, Carp
The local people are very friendly
We were at the end of August, the season was ending, there was a lot of garbage, a lot
The beach is good, good sand, but no one cleans the beach, umbrellas are very expensive (you have to go with your own), you need to have a lot of money to hide from the sun.
The beach is excellent, the water is sand, everything is perfect, but the infrastructure is not developed, the service of all recreation areas is disgusting
So-so, dirty, there are ruins in the area left after the USSR, well, and the absence of normal shops and cafes. For example, a dish called "lagman" I would interpret as noodle soup
Shit, shame on the local administration or Akim. The horror is all fucked up, it stinks of urine because there are no toilets, there is no civilization at all. It's a pity such a place and a gorgeous lake and so to shit.
The sandy beach in the village of Torangylyk is very dirty, there are no garbage containers, no toilets and changing cabins. You can find cigarette butts in large quantities and broken glass in the sand. On the beach, the locals sell ice cream, corn and some kind of fast food. The beach is free for vacationers. The bad impression is offset by the beauty of Lake Balkhash. As an example, I want to give Lake Yarovoye in the Altai Territory, where sand is sifted from garbage every morning in a mechanized way, where there is a decent food court area, toilets, garbage containers, showers, slides for children - exactly the same municipal beach.
You won't find a single toilet, you'll see mountains of garbage, gasoline-stinking water rides every 50 meters, squalid fences and a construction site. A separate shame to Kazakhstan for the quality of the road from Karaganda to Balkhash. The lake is wonderful, just the Maldives, but the local administration managed to help the vacationers shit everything in the truest sense of the word!
The beach is small, there is not much place to swim. Only in one place on the left side. There is an Ocean near the guest house, in general, the bay looks like a frog house.
Prices are high, conditions are few, it's completely dark in the evening

Everything is in such disrepair, it's terrible. We were passing through, we stopped for the night. The water is beautiful, the beach is in the trash. It's a shame and a pity for nature.
