2 Kasparov Ivanov

There are two pipes that directly release waste water and napkins into the sea, which is quite repulsive to see.

Rappongi beach

Kabacum Beach
10 Dana Zabrena

Varna beach
10 Aria Mieder

The beach is absolutely amazing! It's spacious and pristine, with the added bonus of having white sand. Lifeguards are present, and the gentle slope into the sea makes it easy for children to enjoy safely. Plus, it's never too crowded.

Plyazh Sahara
10 Enduring Cybernetic

The beach was absolutely stunning, with immaculate cleanliness and exceptional maintenance. I enjoyed a delightful lunch beneath the pier in my canoe, taking in the breathtaking views on a scorching day. The serene atmosphere was further enhanced by the sight of tiny jellyfish gracefully gliding through the water. Overall, it was an incredibly relaxing and rejuvenating experience.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 18 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!
