Scenic Walking Area Tourist Spot Must See
Soak in the laid-back atmosphere, see the sights, and feel the Black Sea breeze at Gelendzhik Embankment.

    Hello world! Were in Gelendzhik in the second half of August 2019. It is difficult to put an assessment of the gelendzhik embankment, on the one hand you want to put "terrible", on the other hand You want to put "excellent", but I will put the assessment "not bad". I'll explain why, I'll tell you what I liked and what I didn't like. I'll start with the cons: Not enough toilets. And they are not cheap and not very clean. Not enough benches. You go along the embankment, you want to sit down, but the benches are simply not there or they are busy. 3.In the center of the promenade, too many cafes and they very loudly turn on the music, and it feels like they are trying to shout at each other. Sitting in one cafe, you can hear the music from the 4 standing nearby. And it sounds not light jazz, and margi ...

    Just a beautiful piece of a beach with that 40s-50s vibe

    It is a beautiful place, but now it is almost unsuitable for walking because of the widely deployed construction works and the sway cyclists who are completely unreadable with the rules of movement. If you are walking with children, be very attentive. The view of the bay is breathtaking. So far, most exits to the sea are closed. What's going to happen in the season, isn't it? Most likely most of the beaches will be paid and access to the sea is also limited.

    A wonderful snow-white embankment stretching from the center to the lighthouse on the Cape ToList. There are places for rest, children's playgrounds. Many monuments. A huge number of flowers! Beaches are sandy, pebble. There are cafes, restaurants, canteens. Rest for everyone!

    It's cool. Now April in the whole bloom tulips and other plants Carousel Park has already started to work. On the waterfront there is live music and various sights of the city. Divers in the marine Gelendzhik Bay clean the bottom of the embankment. The beach is sprinkled with new sand.. Near to the café fry kebabs and dishes on the grill. There is a minus there is no good market. Maybe that's not the summer season, but the weather is great sunny.
