Resorts of the Krasnodar Territory - with sandy beaches on the Black Sea

It is believed that sandy beaches in the resorts of the Krasnodar Territory are concentrated mainly on the coastline from Anapa to Taman. But there are also a few more pieces of the beach with sand. These are, for example, the city beach of Gelendzhik and the beach of the Plyakho village, which are located in the Tuapse region. In addition to the beaches with yellow sand, which we are used to on the coasts of the same Thailand, there are also beaches with gray / brown sand, which look more like small-fine pebbles than sand. True, usually such sand is found in places, stripes.

It is clear that you will not get the Maldives and bounty on the Black Sea, but it is possible to relax on the sandy beach. And I personally would go to the sandy beaches to have a rest with children, especially if the child is small and still crawling. Therefore, since there is a choice, it is better to know where there is sand, for this this review was written. If you have any more information on this, add in the comments.

The best sandy beaches of the Krasnodar Territory

The best beaches of the Krasnodar Territory can be considered the beaches that are located along the coast to the north-west of Anapa and to Vityazevo, in the Gelendzhik region, in the village of Plyakho, Tuapse region. The sand in this large area is predominantly yellow and plentiful, with few stones and pebbles. In the Greater Sochi area, there are practically no such beaches, with the exception of a beach with artificial sand in the Imereti Beach Club..

The beaches of the Taman Peninsula, from Volna to Veselovka

On the Taman Peninsula, from the village of Volna and approximately to the mud lake near the village of Veselovka, several beaches can be distinguished. The area here is quite deserted, but there are recreation centers and children's camps near the sea, because here it is very convenient for swimming, with a smooth approach and good golden sand. True, in some places there may be an illy bottom, the closer to the Annunciation, the less often.

The outskirts of the Volna village are very beautiful: from the high bank you can see a yellow sandy strip stretching into the distance along the sea. This is a quiet place, with nature almost untouched by man, where the wind walks in the open, well suited for «wild» recreation, including with children. The village has some kind of infrastructure, you can find housing from private owners. There are also several recreation centers nearby where you can stay.

The Volna village is quite small and there are not so many hotels that can be booked online. Probably the most comfortable is the guest house Uyut Taman. But the beach of the Volna village is not crowded, with light sand and a calm shallow sea.

From the village of Volna to Veselovka there are kilometers of wild beaches, to which you have to go down from the road to the sea from a high sandy shore. In some places it goes around and falls into the sea, and not everywhere the strip of the beach is wide. Nevertheless, the area is popular with tent lovers by the sea..

The village of Veselovka is located not on the seashore, but a little in the depths. Near Veselovka there is a salt lake with curative mud, so one of the beaches is called At Salt Lake, it has the necessary infrastructure: sun loungers, umbrellas, booths, cafes, etc. The central beach of Veselovka is Yantar, which also has an infrastructure for a beach holiday, showers, a shop, a cafe, a camping site with places for tents. The entry into the sea is shallow, and the sand is fine and golden, but there is no natural shade at all. These two beaches - near the Salt Lake and Central, are the most equipped and comfortable for relaxation..

Lake Beach in Veselovka

Further, towards the Blagoveshchenskaya, on the Bugazskaya spit, there are the beaches Bugaz and Kiziltash, wild beaches. On the Bugaz beach, the depth increases quite quickly when entering the sea. There are kite and wind surfing schools in the area and the beaches are popular primarily with those who practice these sports. The coastal strip here is wide, without vegetation, with fine and pleasant golden sand. The beach has some kind of infrastructure, a cafe. But in general, the area is deserted.

Beaches in the vicinity of Blagoveshchenskaya

The long and rather deserted sandy beaches of the village of Blagoveshchenskaya are popular with those who like to rest with tents, kiters and surfers. But there are also large resort hotels. This calm and quiet place is attractive for families with children. Entry into the water in this area is smooth and the depth is shallow, and the sea is cleaner than near the Kurp resorts. The beaches in the Blagoveshchenskaya area are wide, with yellow and fine quartz sand.

Towards the village of Volna, the beaches of the Bugaz Spit stretch from Veselovka. They are quite deserted and poorly equipped, suitable for those who like wild recreation and those who are engaged in kite and wind surfing. A long, several kilometers long strip of fine yellow sand is almost all that can be seen on the beach.

On the beach at Summerotel there is a cafe, sun canopies, rental of water sports and sun loungers. It is spacious, quiet, fine golden sand and shallow sea. On the territory there is a dining room and a playground.

The beach near the guest house and recreation center Eden is completely deserted, there is no infrastructure on it. A path several hundred meters long leads to the sea from the base. A cafe, a canteen, a shop, etc. can be found on the territory of the recreation center Edem.

Deserted wild beaches without infrastructure stretch between the Eden Recreation Center and the Solaris Recreation Center.

Even closer to the Blagoveshchenskaya from the Taman Peninsula is the Solaris beach, where there is also a camping. There is infrastructure, water activities, cafes and you can stay with a tent. Behind the Solaris beach in the direction of Blagoveshchenskaya stretch the beaches of numerous recreation centers. For example, there is a good recreation center Oka. On these beaches, sand is mixed with shells. There are sun awnings, sun loungers, showers and changing cabins.

The most popular beach in the area is the Central Beach of the village of Blagoveshchenskaya. Although it also does not look very crowded due to the large length and width of the strip of sand. There is a tourist infrastructure on the beach. Here you can find cafes, entertainment, sun awnings, sun loungers and more. The beach is considered to be very clean, the best in the area. One of the closest hotels to the Central Beach in Blagoveshchenskaya - a small and inexpensive hotel with a swimming pool Blue Roof.

In general, it is a relatively busy tourist destination. But some parts of the coast can be more or less sparsely populated. Part of the coastline is fenced by hotels standing next to the sea. Sun beds on such «private» beaches for hotel guests are free.

At first, wild beaches stretch between Blagoveshchenskaya and Vityazevo in a long strip. There is good golden sand, untouched nature and almost no people..

All these beaches have sand strips not only a few meters from the sea, at some distance from the surf, but precisely when entering the water. Therefore, they can be called partially or conditionally sandy.
