Sunrise beach

This beach is really pleasant and the people are friendly. The ocean is pristine and the water is transparent. They have everything you need, it's all-inclusive. You can enjoy swimming and sunbathing.

What a beautiful place! The water is a stunning emerald green and so clear. Admittedly, the view was slightly affected by a recent storm. But, on a positive note, you can take a leisurely walk to the Blue Valley and even try out the healing clay for a unique experience. The path down to the beach is quite steep, with a stone staircase through a shaded park, which is a relief from the scorching heat. It's definitely a great workout! It might be a bit challenging for the elderly and even the young ones might find it a bit tiring, but taking it slow adds to the excitement. Additionally, there's Arkhipo-Osipovka nearby where you can hang out in the evening, especially if you have a car.

The beach has clean water that allows visibility of the bottom up to 2 meters deep. It is adorned with small pebbles and stones, with rocks situated towards the back. The water is both clean and warm, offering clarity. Although there is a long descent down a steep concrete staircase, it is equipped with railings for safety. Additionally, there is ample shade provided by the surrounding stairs.

The beach offers a variety of options for visitors to choose from, with sections that have small pebbles and others with stones. In the morning, the water is clear enough to see the entire seabed. There are facilities available such as toilets for 20₽ and showers for 50₽. Additionally, you can enjoy activities like banana boat rides. The selection of souvenirs is limited, but the pasties are exceptional, with options like meat, potatoes, mushrooms, cheese, and even bananas. Furthermore, there is a staircase with recreational areas accessible from the 5th section.

Compared to the beaches in Sochi, Lazarevsky, and Adler, this beach has fewer people, which is definitely a positive aspect. Similar to other beaches, the sand here is rocky. However, you have to be careful when choosing your spot as there are areas with large boulders covered in algae, extending from the shore into the deeper waters. Overall, I enjoyed the place. Additionally, if you are someone who enjoys getting muddy, there is a spot just fifty meters away from the water. Near the cafes, you can rent sun loungers, mattresses, and inner tubes for a fee. They also offer boat and inflatable raft rides.
