The beach is located in Sukhumi Bay. It is 2 km long and 50 m wide. The beach is covered with large pebbles and is separated into sections with concrete breakerwaters. The water entry is smooth but the depth increases rather sharply. The water is clear, the bottom is rocky. This beach is selected by people wishing to combine the sea vacation with the advantages of nearby city cafes, restaurants, museums, and other infrastructure.
On the beach areas located closer to the city center, water rides, sling chairs and umbrellas can be rented. Several changing cabins are installed on the beach. The beach stretches along the municipal quay bordering on wide and long park area. It has cafes and restaurants.
The most city hotes are a few minutes walk away from the beach. Moreover, the city offers such accommodation options as private sector, apartments and guest houses.
When is it better to go
The climate of Abkhazia is mild and comfortable, so tourists come to local resorts all year round. The swimming season begins in May and ends in October.
