Well-equipped
Let's look at the best beaches on the Black Sea coast, so you can make your choice and find a more suitable place under the rays of the southern sun where you can enjoy the freedom and open spaces of the sea.

In the center of the resort there is a very nice sandy beach, which extends near the Thin Cape sanatorium. If you absolutely want to attend it, we recommend signing up for some useful procedures (possibly inexpensive ones). But the rest are rocky and pebbly.
Carefully! Enter the water carefully so as not to injure your leg with sharp stones. It is better to buy special shoes and enjoy the crystal water to the fullest.

The city's central sandy beach is quite large and crowded. I'm glad that everything is provided for free. There are also all sorts of paid services and entertainment: parachute flights, jet ski and banana rides, inflatable mattresses .
It would seem that there is somewhere to roam, but the big disadvantage is that during the peak season there is simply nowhere to step, it is too crowded and noisy, and therefore the water is not very clean.
