Sea of Abkhazia
Rest in the Republic of Abkhazia will remind travelers of a respectable age about student holidays in their youth, when a trip to the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus was the height of dreams, and several weeks of carefree swimming flew by like one day. Today, a variety of tourists come here, who are attracted by the sea of Abkhazia, its clean mountain air, ideal climate and reasonable prices for absolutely everything..

The sea of Abkhazia is more than 200 kilometers of comfortable and clean beaches covered with small pebbles, stretching between the borders of Georgia and Russia.
