As for attractions, there are many of them here: ancient cathedrals and modern singing fountains, the famous botanical garden, cable car Argo, embankment, Neptune Square and other objects.

An inexpensive way to fill your stomach is to buy local, hearty and delicious national pastries - khachapuri (cheese flatbreads, sometimes with eggs), you can buy them on every corner here.
Among the minuses, one can note too high prices, pebble beaches that not everyone likes, and the sea that is not too clean at the height of the season. But the cleanliness of the city itself, numerous restaurants offering Georgian cuisine, and unique architecture, despite all the shortcomings, attract a huge number of vacationers to Batumi every year. This resort is chosen for family vacation, since there is all the infrastructure and a variety of entertainment for him here. Young active recreation enthusiasts also come here.

2. Cape Verde

Mtsvane-Kontskhi or Cape Verde is one of the most beautiful Black Sea resorts Georgia, located 9 kilometers from Batumi. It has long become a popular holiday destination, where both locals and tourists want to go.
This cape was called green because it is covered with lush greenery all year round. The local subtropical climate is characterized by warmth and plenty of moisture, so tropical plants grow wild here.

Japanese sakura and blue eucalyptus, bamboo and cacti, giant spruce and palm trees coexist here. The warm climate is conducive to sunbathing and treatment of respiratory system ailments.

3. Kobuleti

Kobuleti, a resort located in the Colchis Lowland, is considered the pearl of Adjara. There is a unique microclimate here, different from the seaside. Here you can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery, sunbathe on a beach with clean pebbles and breathe in the fresh sea breeze, but also improve your health.
Kobuleti is located 20 kilometers from Batumi, its resort area stretches along the Black Sea for more than 10 kilometers. The climate here is very mild, subtropical, and pine groves perfectly ionize the air, warm sea and hot sun - everything you need for first-class relaxation and improved health.
Like everywhere else in Georgia, Kobuleti has municipal beaches, so they are well-groomed and clean. The clear sea and small pebbles allow you to enjoy a beach holiday, and the black iron-rich sands have natural healing properties.
As for various types of treatment, in Kobuleti they treat with sea air, sea ​​water and thalassotherapy. Scientists have found that sea water is a quarter more effective than fresh water in improving skin performance.
People who love silence, simplicity and need to improve their health, who do not like the overly crowded beaches of Ureki, prefer to come to Kobuleti to relax.

4. Gonio

Tourists come to Gonio not only to swim in the clear sea and climb the mountain slopes, but also to look at the eucalyptus grove located along the road, which spreads healing aromas around the area. On local beaches, as elsewhere in the vicinity of Batumi, large pebbles. Those who are tired of the eternal city noise and want to have only one entertainment in the form of the sea prefer to relax here. There are small cafes here, and you can rent beach umbrellas and sun loungers. And when the sea gets boring, you can go to Batumi by minibus (half an hour’s drive) or go up to the Gonio-Apsaros fortress, which is surrounded by an aura of myths and legends. Here is the grave in which the Apostle Matthew, whose gospel was included in the Bible, is believed to be buried.

Beautiful weather, hospitality local residents, numerous attractions and natural beauty - all this is inherent in Georgia. This original...

5. Kvariati

Thanks to its excellent location and the combination of sea air with mountain resort Kvariati has become one of the favorites on the Black Sea coast. There is very clean sea water here, which attracts numerous vacationers. This place is located 14 kilometers south of Batumi, very close to Turkish border. Here the pure pebble beach. The sea here is deep, which attracts divers who enjoy exploring the local underwater world. Here, therefore, at the end of the beach, near the rocks, the only scuba diving center in all of Georgia is organized, where you can get instructions, dive with fins and a mask and explore different routes, for example, to a sunken ship.
But in Kvariati you can not only have fun and relax; here, as in other resorts in Adjara, you can treat vascular, gynecological and central nervous system diseases.

6. Ureki

Ureki is considered a very good climatic resort. It is located 50 kilometers north of Batumi, in the Ozurgeti region. Neighborhood with warm sea gave this area a humid subtropical climate.
The local coastline is a strip of eucalyptus and pine groves, which add to sea ​​breeze subtle magnificent healing aroma. The Ureki resort is a unique place for treatment and active recreation thanks to the generous local nature, which gave it not only sea and sun, but also velvety fine sand. The uniqueness of Ureki is the presence of a sandy beach, and the sand here is not ordinary, but with magnetite (the so-called “magnetic sands”). According to experts, local magnetic sands strengthen the nervous system and musculoskeletal system, so it is not surprising that people with similar problems come here.
The healing properties of magnetic sands were already known in ancient times - the ancient Egyptians, Hellenes and Indian yogis treated them with them. Modern medicine has mastered a separate physiotherapeutic method of treatment - magnetic therapy. On the Black Sea coast such sands are found in Bulgaria and Georgia. Georgian sands usually contain 2-3% magnetite, but there are places where layers in the upper layers contain up to 70% of it. In Bulgaria, magnetic sand placers are wider than those in the Caucasus, but they have a lower magnetite content. Therefore, Georgian black magnetic sands can be called a unique phenomenon.

7. Grigoleti

In the southwest of the Colchis Lowland there is one of the most popular Black Sea resorts in Georgia, Grigoleti. It is sandwiched between the waters of the Black Sea and the beautiful Caucasian peaks. Most of the local coastline is covered pine groves. Grigoleti beach also has magnetic sand, which has a healing effect for rheumatic and joint diseases. Not far from here is Lake Grigoleti. According to ancient Greek mythology, Queen Medea lived here and the Golden Fleece was located.

8. Anaklia

In western Georgia there is climatic resort Anaklia with clear sea, sandy beach and dry climate. Coastline here stretches for 8 kilometers, and the resort itself is located 147 kilometers north of Batumi. This resort is still very young and therefore is rapidly developing. When a yacht club and the first high-class hotel opened here in 2011, Anaklia was given the status of a city. For the construction of the resort, the Georgian authorities attracted the architect from Spain Alberto Domingo, who adjusted the coastline to build an embankment and laid out an extensive amusement park here. In addition, he threw the longest in Europe footbridge 540 meters long, to the village of Ganmukhuri, which is located on the opposite bank of the Enguri River.
Currently, the construction of modern tourist facilities and hotels continues on the coast. A free industrial zone and a deep-sea port should appear here, which should contribute to the prosperity of the region not only in tourism, but also in economic terms.

9. Chakvi

The small and green resort of Chakvi is located on the coast of Adjara, from here 17 kilometers to Batumi. There is a pebble beach, and sand with small shells is found only at the very coastline.
The name of the resort is associated with a culture such as tea, which has been grown here for quite a long time. It is no coincidence that Chakvi is called the capital Georgian tea. Tea plantations here occupy a fairly large area. In addition to tea, Japanese tangerines are grown here, and there are also bamboo thickets.
Those tourists who want to relax in “savage” tents at sea in Georgia, but don’t know the best place to do this, can safely head to Chakvi. After all, there are many places where you can put up tents without going far from the sea, since the area here is quite wild. But here, accordingly, there are few places where you can go to have fun. The only attraction is the house of the Chinese Lau Jan Jau - the man who first started growing tea here. He lived here in the first quarter of the last century, and now his house is completely abandoned and is not guarded by anyone. As is already clear, here you can find a calm and measured holiday; different groups of tourists can afford to settle at a considerable distance from each other, so this heavenly place for lovers of silence. It’s especially convenient to come here by car; you can also bring your children. Food and shelter in Chakvi, which is not spoiled by “cool” vacationers, are very affordable - at the height of the season, two people here can live on 5,000 rubles a day.

We have an established stereotype that Georgian cuisine consists entirely of meat - satsivi, shish kebab, kharcho. But in fact, its basis is...

10. Sarpi

The beach of this place is considered the cleanest on the entire Georgian Black Sea coast. From this small Adjara town, Batumi is only 20 kilometers away, so people come here for weekends in the summer from neighboring cities in Adjara, including from Batumi itself. The beach here is not very long - only 500 meters, but it is wide - 100 meters, which is convenient. It is covered, like most Adjarian beaches, with pebbles. The stormy Chorokhi River, which descends from the mountains near Batumi, is responsible for the turbidity of the sea water there, but in the Sarpi region it passes from the south sea ​​current, which makes the water near Sarpi beach especially clean. In summer, the water has time to warm up well, remaining clean throughout swimming season. Young people are very fond of jumping into the water from a cliff. Divers often visit here as there is a diving center here.
An interstate highway runs between the beach and the residential part of the village of Sarpi. The Georgian-Turkish border is very close, or rather, it literally divides the village into two parts, so the beach on one side abuts the checkpoint.
Sarpi can be called quiet town, it is more predisposing to a measured beach holiday, calm contemplation of waterfalls and mountain landscapes. It's very beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Additional comfort can be considered the presence of sun loungers and umbrellas on the beach. But there is no smell of club life here, and all the fuss is connected only with the presence of a border.
