A separate review is generally planned about Abkhazia, so here - I will try shorter)))

I was trying to dissuade me from the trip on my car (war, destruction, antisanitary, theft, theft, the streets of Hanggers walk, and I will bearing a car, and I myself will be kidnapped and the cops there are evil and the border to take place there, etc. etc.) But there were those who supported. I listened to those and others - and went. Not one of course) with son and young man for courage)))

Immediately I want to say - almost any of those horror stories that frightened me - not justified. The border drove without problems, the policemen were kindest people (as well as all the Abkhaza, which was met on my way), no one immediately encroached on me nor my property - the car was boldly on the streets of cities, while they walked They left on the shore until they bathe themselves.

Destroy - yes, there is such a thing, not the fact that at home, even the whole hotels are standing since the times of the war ... Rotovirus - Yes, but the guys - he is not only in Abkhazia - he is around the coast - we hurt in Anapa and in Gelendzhik ... just need to follow the rules of hygiene and not to swallow sea water ...

It is enough to move away from the central beach to the east or the west and move along the edge of the sea. Already through a hundred meters in front of you will open wonderful places for secluded rest.

Features

These wild beaches are sandy-pebble. Coastal water is also characterized by purity and slowness of waves, but the descent to water can be inconvenient.

There are quite cool descents, the bottom is often uneven. But this is quite understandable - after all, there is no one to follow the territory.

Picturesque places: the virgin nature, approaching the beach of pines, shrubs that give resting flavors of fresh needles.

Entertainment

There is no rental of sun beds or water entertainment. But there is silence, fragrance of exotic flowers, singing southern birds.

On wild beaches, someone from the local trading can go. We usually sell drinks, snacks, sunglasses, tanning creams, caps - Any trifle is offered, which might need a tourist on the beach.

Wild beaches are good by solitude. However, food has to take with me. Nearest cafes - in Pitsunde himself. Or, as an option, go to the cafes in the center of the central beach.

Pitsunda is a town where it is impossible to take a look from local landscapes. Especially, if you lie on the beach and peer into this unearthly nature. Calm Sea, Coniferous Forests, Azure Sky ...
