Preface

In August 2021, my husband and I went on vacation.
At the family council, it was decided to find the most comfortable beach and a quiet place where you can fully relax. We were not in the mood for an active holiday, we just wanted to take a break from the bustle of the city, lie on the beach and do nothing. We drove from Rostov-on-Don along the only accessible route and chose a place closer to the sea. As a result, we settled on the small village of Agoy in the Tuapse region. The route was practically not chosen or planned.

We were on our way to the Krasnodar Territory along the M4 Don federal highway. We left Rostov at 05:00 am. Numerous fields flashed past the car windows, and in some places they were even on fire. The boring and long road was diluted only by music and the anticipation of a quick vacation next to the warm and clean Black Sea.

Fields are burning near Rostov

Attractions

The resort village of Agoy is a little-known place. At the same time, there are a number of local attractions that are definitely worth a visit for visiting tourists. You can do this while driving your own car or along with a tour.

Giant oak

Located in the village of Agoy, Tuapse district, on the street. Gornaya 3. During the excursion it is included in the inspection. The tree rises in height by 20 m. At the same time, its diameter is 2.3 m. The estimated period of existence of the oak is 500-700 years. Currently it is protected by the state.

This is due to the fact that several decades ago the territory was planned to be allocated for development in order to create a resort area here. The oak constantly attracted the attention of tourists. Picnics and celebrations were organized around it. The fire from the fires almost damaged the root system of the tree. Since then, the authorities have reconsidered their decision, and development of the area has been cancelled.

Kiselev's Rock

It occupied a position between Cape Kadosh located here and the mouth of the Agoy River. Its peculiarity is the almost vertical cliff face. This beautiful place was depicted in his paintings by the artist Kiselev, who built himself a dacha nearby. The uniqueness of the place is given by the forests, which are formed in the shape of a cap on the top of the rock. The landscape looks especially picturesque from the sea.

Director Leonid Gaidai liked this place. It was here that the fishing scene in the comedy film The Diamond Arm was filmed. Excursions by boat are organized here. Travel time is 1.5 hours. For an adult, a ticket will cost 700 rubles. For children it will cost 400 rubles.

Wolf Rocks

This natural attraction is located in the village of Aguy-Shapsug. This place has been shaped by nature over many millions of years. In ancient times, the territory was used by hunters who drove wolves into the gorge. The beauty of the rock is decorated with lush vegetation. Among the trees there are chestnuts.

The length of the gorge is over 50 m. You can get here by boat. The cost of the excursion will be 700 rubles. In addition, those who wish can get here on their own.

Agoy waterfalls

To get to the waterfalls you need to drive along the Novorossiysk highway. The stopping place is Tsentralnaya Street 53. Here you can see 2 waterfalls: Women's Tears and Men's Tears. They are not deep-water and have a multi-stage appearance. There is untouched nature all around. For this reason, there are very few tourists in these places.

Perhaps people simply don’t know the route here. On both sides of the flowing small stream there are ancient trees. Each of them has a unique appearance. Travelers should definitely take comfortable shoes with them, because the forest paths are often very slippery.

Hotels

Agoy (the photo of the village and the beach clearly demonstrates the coziness of this corner) is a place where you can always stay in a hotel near the sea.

Different budget options are presented in the table.

Depending on their financial situation, tourists can choose the most suitable option for themselves.

Mountain road to Agoy

Having crossed the pass, we drove into the Tuapse region. There is a good viewing point on the route, but we didn't want to waste time here. The fact is that we did not decide in advance where and how we would settle - we were traveling “blindly”, towards the unknown. We also didn’t know how much longer we had to travel along the serpentine roads.

Later we regretted that we had not stopped at the observation deck and taken a photo - the view from there must have been stunning.

Observation deck to the mountains

There were 60 kilometers left to the small village of Agoy. However, as it turned out, the road along serpentine roads and through resort towns takes a lot of time. As soon as the traffic jams due to road repairs ended, new ones began due to measured pedestrians. True, the view from the window amazed us with its beauty: we admired the endless sea, the road and deeply breathed in the fresh air.

Road along the coast

However, we had to return to reality. The fact is that the coast is adjacent to small resort towns and villages, such as Olginka, Nebug, Dzhubga. Each of them has traffic lights located on the federal highway. The flow of pedestrian tourists never ends... Because of this, traffic jams form. The longest ones were in Dzhubga.

Those who are planning to travel to the Krasnodar Territory by car in the summer should know that it is better to overcome this section of the route in the evening or early in the morning to avoid traffic jams. We were pretty nervous while we were standing here. However, the observed beauty of the Kuban nature later more than compensated for everything.

And so, when the sea appeared on the horizon, we began to look for a suitable place for a quiet rest. Dzhubga disappeared immediately - there are too many people there, all the beaches are crowded, and housing prices started at 1,000 rubles for a small room without air conditioning or amenities.

Next stop is Olginka. We heard that this resort is very popular and therefore expensive. Having looked at the beach, we immediately decided to stop in Olginka. The Black Sea coast here is strewn with sand. The water is muddy, there are a lot of children around (probably because there is a water park nearby). In addition, all the roads here are simply clogged with sand, obviously brought by vacationers from the beach. So, Dzhubga and Olginka did not suit us at all.

Having assessed the situation, we decided: since we managed to drive so far, then covering the remaining 60 kilometers to Agoy would not be a problem for us. Once upon a time, when I was a child, I vacationed with my parents in this village. And, without wasting time on unnecessary stops, we went to Agoy, hoping to find deserted beaches and crystal clear water there.

Where to eat

In the village of Agoy there are many cozy restaurants and cafes where you can have a good lunch and enjoy a pleasant atmosphere.

Information about some of them is presented in the table.

If you wish, you can always find a place to satisfy your hunger.

Prices for holidays in Agoy

The remaining journey took another three hours. Arriving in the village, we immediately began looking for housing. We managed to do this very quickly. Before entering the village, there were men standing on the highway offering to rent housing. We had several options. The first is a house right on the coast for 2,000 rubles per day for two. The second, more budget-friendly, cost 1,200 rubles per day. The apartments are located in the mountains (15 minutes walk to the sea), but there are no numerous tourists or cars nearby. The last option suited us both in price and location.

Our temporary home in the mountains

Having left our things, we immediately rushed to the sea. The owner of the house explained how we could go on foot, but we decided to go by car, as we were very tired from the road. However, all our fatigue disappeared as soon as we saw the wonderful seascape.

An office worker's dream

I was especially pleased with the water - it is truly crystal clear here. We had a mask with fins with us - we wanted to take a closer look at the underwater world. Small fish were hiding in the reefs, and the stones in the water looked like real sea treasures. In a word, we were extremely pleased with what we saw, despite all the obstacles along the way. All week, every day, we did the same thing: we went to the sea in the morning, then allowed ourselves to sleep in the afternoon, and in the evening we went swimming again. This is exactly the kind of vacation we've been dreaming about all year.

There is always a lot of free space on the beaches, and a small number of people leisurely stroll along the embankment. At the same time, there are transport interchanges through which you can quickly get to nearby large settlements.

Beach at the Kiseleva rock

From the center of the village to the rock is a little more than 3 km. This place is very beautiful and popular among tourists. The rock got its name in honor of the artist who painted seascapes here.

The beach is located at the foot of the cliff, and a narrow path leads to it. The beach is completely wild, there are no amenities on it. This does not stop tourists, and the shore near the Kiselev rock is never empty. Fishermen often come to the beach in search of a good catch of fish and sea crabs. Swimming on the beach should be done with caution. There are many sharp and large stones at the bottom.

What to see in the village: attractions and entertainment

For those who choose the Tuapse region for vacation, Agoy attracts travelers with the beautiful landscapes of forests and mountains that surround the village. You can book a tour on ATVs and jeeps and go on an exciting journey around the surrounding area. Such tours do not require any specific physical training; experienced instructors will tell you everything and help you. And the photos taken on these trips will become a nice reminder of your vacation.

It is worth visiting the main local attraction - the Kiseleva rock, which received its name thanks to an artist who loved to paint pictures here and immortalized a natural monument on them. The height of this cliff, located in the Kadosh forest park, is more than 40 m, and its beauty is mesmerizing; the impressions of your visit will remain in your memory for a long time.

Of the natural monuments adjacent to the village, it is also worth noting the Agoy waterfalls. Yes, they are not picturesque and do not delight everyone. But the atmosphere itself, the nature surrounding them, definitely deserves to be captured in a photo. There are two waterfalls here - Men's Tears and Women's Tears.

No vacation at sea is complete without swimming. The beach, more than a kilometer long and about 40 m wide, will give a good holiday in Agoy to both big and small. The gentle entry into the water, the surface of small pebbles and the developed infrastructure will suit everyone. Adults can enjoy boat rides, rental of catamarans and pleasure boats, a shooting range, and a massage parlor. And for children in the coastal zone there is a whole expanse: trampolines, attractions, slides with a descent into the pool - the kids will definitely have a lot of fun.
