Silver beach (Republic of Crimea) is located outside the Balaklava settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

User reviews

"The primary benefit of the beach is its pristine water. All other aspects will be viewed as drawbacks. Accessible solely by foot along a scenic mountain trail, the journey lasts approximately 40 minutes. Alternatively, a quicker 10-minute route can be taken by boat from the city waterfront."

Sergei Volkov

"Clean pebbled shore with complimentary restrooms and showers. Welcoming cafe employees. Prices are higher than usual (sunbed 500 rubles, hot dog 300 rubles, water 100 rubles). Access to the beach costs 100 rubles per individual."
