I live in Sochi, and let me tell you, this beach is the cleanest and most enjoyable one around! Compared to Lighthouse Beach, there are actually fewer vacationers here, and the best part is, there are no annoying touts. You can find everything you need for a perfect beach day - sun loungers, umbrellas, mattresses, and more - all available for rent at the same prices as everywhere else in Sochi. The beach itself is spotless and well-maintained, with plenty of lifeguards on duty. Surprisingly, you won't come across many rowdy drunk people here, probably because there aren't many drinking establishments nearby. I highly recommend trying the delicious pasties at Cheburechnaya, although they might be a bit pricey at 250 rubles each. Trust me, it's worth it! So, make sure to visit Riviera Van Love beach when you're in town!
