This so-called beach is nothing more than a pebble-filled nightmare. If you dare to step foot on it without proper footwear, you'll regret it for days. And even with beach slippers, the experience is far from enjoyable. The sea may be clean, but what's the point of swimming in it when you're constantly dodging sharp rocks? Save yourself the trouble and find a real beach.

Sukhum Beach may not be considered a top pick amongst private establishments, as it lacks amenities such as only two changing cabins, one Mayak cafe with owners who may not be the most refined, and only a couple of tents offering drinks and snacks. Entertainment options are also limited to just bananas. However, the beach has its own charm with its clean and clear waters, making it a great spot to unwind without the usual crowds.

Sukhumi boasts a plethora of beaches that cater to diverse preferences. The central beach may not be ideal for those seeking a serene getaway, hence it is advisable to take a short bus ride to revel in the untamed pebble beach near the lighthouse or the refined Mocha beach towards the city's eastern end.

The stunning beach in Sukhumi, Abkhazia is a true gem that is definitely worth a visit. The crystal-clear waters and pristine sand create a tranquil atmosphere that is perfect for relaxation and rejuvenation. The beach is surrounded by breathtaking scenery and the sound of waves crashing against the shore is music to the ears. The local currency, Russian Ruble, makes it easy to enjoy the local cuisine and indulge in the many activities available such as swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing. Overall, this beach is a must-see destination for anyone seeking a peaceful and picturesque getaway.
