It is established that the main factors causing the transformation of the functional and territorial structure, conditions and mode of functioning of tourist and recreational systems are recreational and geographical location, changes in tourist andrecreational demand of the population, tourist resources, socio-economic, geopolitical, geo- ecological, health and innovation factors.The Crimean region has an advantageous transport and geographical position in relation to large centers of tourist and recreational demand in Russia. The coastal regions of Crimea are characterized by a stable geographical selectivity of tourist and recreational demand.The tourism resource factor demonstrates relative stability. The most valuable beaches, therapeutic mineral waters and mud resources have already been mastered, but in the western and eastern regions of Crimea there are opportunities for further updating of the resource potential.Investment activity in the segment of medical and recreational recreation of the seaside resorts of Crimea tends to grow, a number of large projects are being implemented. The ecological situation in the coastal areas of the peninsula is not a limiting factor for the development of recreation and tourism.The determinant of recent years is the complication of geopolitical and sanitary- epidemiological situations that have a destructive impact on the development of the entire tourist and recreational complex of Crimea.A comparative analysis of the main indicators characterizing various factors for different years confirms the conclusion about the high dynamism of the internal and external environment of the tourist and recreational development of the seaside zone of Crimea. This influence is manifested in changes in the specialization of seaside tourist and recreational systems, the level of recreational development of coastal territories and the competitive positions of the regions in the national and international markets of tourist and recreational services. There is a significant gap in the degree of favorable conditions and factors for the development of therapeutic and recreational activities in various seaside tourist and recreational systems of Crimea.
