A decision was made to create 15 modern recreation areas near the water. The corresponding decree was signed Sergei Sobyanin.

The work is planned to be completed by the beginning of the summer season of 2026. The recreation areas will be:

— Golovinsky and Angarsky ponds in the Northern Administrative District;

— Dzhamgarovsky and Dolgie (Vinogradovskie) ponds in the North-Eastern Administrative District;

— Golyanovsky, Bolshoy Perovsky and Vladimirsky ponds in the Eastern Administrative District;

— Lower Biryulevsky pond in the Southern Administrative District;

— Chernevskie (beaches No. 1 and 2) and Yasenevskie ponds in the South-West Administrative District;

— Bolshoy Ochakovsky, Verkhniy Udaltsovsky and Tsentralny (Bolshoy Solntsevsky) ponds in Solntsevo in the Western Administrative District;

— recreation area "Zarechye" on the Desna River in TiNAO.

The main focus is on organizing a comfortable stay near the water. Today, it is not just a towel spread on the grass. For vacationers, they make decks on piles from decking boards and install sun loungers and deck chairs on them.

Along the coastline, a strip of clean white sand is formed. Here, too, you can place sun loungers and install umbrellas and awnings to protect yourself from the sun.

Gazebos, swings and hammocks will be another pleasant opportunity to relax and unwind. And to make the rest comfortable for the whole family, playgrounds for toddlers and older children will be equipped nearby.

In some recreation areas, it is planned to install swimming pools.

A necessary component is changing rooms with showers and toilets.

Beach recreation also includes sports activities. For this purpose, multifunctional areas for workout and volleyball will be equipped.

The standard for recreation by the water also includes the creation of picnic areas with comfortable tables, benches and barbecues. Cafes are provided, for which special pavilions will be erected.

In addition, convenient paths will be built, lighting will be installed, benches and trash bins will be installed.

Engineering infrastructure, including video surveillance and warning systems, lifeguard towers and architectural and artistic lighting, guarantees not only a comfortable, but also a safe holiday.

A pilot project for the development of a recreation area near the water according to the new standard was implemented in 2025 on the Pionersky Pond in Gorky Park. If earlier it was a simple reservoir, now the pond has become a small resort in the center of Moscow.
