Primorsko-Ahtarsk Plyazh

I enjoyed this embankment. It wasn't crowded, and the beach was pleasantly spacious as well. This is a crucial factor for me because I dislike when it's so packed that there's no room to move. Architecturally, everything is very tidy and designed in a charming white seaside style.

The embankment is beautifully maintained and exudes a classic charm. It features a lovely light parapet made of small columns with a wide oval pier, perfect for leaning on and gazing at the sea or watching vacationers below. The walkway is paved with light stone tiles and adorned with beautiful wooden benches. There are elegant arches with high columns and wide stone steps that lead down to the beach, which is equipped with changing cabins. A notable monument of a military boat stands proudly, and in another spot, there's a statue of a woman holding a pearl in her outstretched hand. The children's playground is well-furnished with benches, and the beach itself is composed of small shell rock, almost like sand, with a light shade. The Sea of Azov here is shallow; even beyond the buoys, the water only reaches up to your neck. Upon entering the water, you’ll encounter small, smooth stones after about 2 meters, which can be slightly uncomfortable for those not accustomed to them. However, this only lasts for 1-2 meters before transitioning to smooth, compressed shell rock that feels pleasant underfoot. You can walk quite a distance, even past the buoys, although the bottom does change slightly with some whole shells and a bit of soft silt. The water is very warm and less salty than the Black Sea, making it ideal for swimming. The consistent shallow bottom provides a safe environment for children. Additionally, the city boasts a small, modern skate park where young people can practice their tricks.

The sea is excellent, and the embankments are beautiful. Some people might find things different or the same as elsewhere, preferring abroad, complaining about the lack of toilets, or saying the sea is dirty. However, the sea here is not dirty; it's just the bottom and algae that might give that impression. For children, it's perfect. While it can't be compared to Cyprus, even there, the water gets cloudy near the shore when it's crowded. There are plenty of toilets available. There's a free one near the shore by Lenin, a paid one for the 50th anniversary of October, and several portable toilets along the shore. It seems some people just didn't look hard enough to find them. Entertainment options are abundant: trampolines, sailing, banana boat rides, introductory flights, parachute jumping, fishing, and volleyball. The city also offers parks with playgrounds for children, a cinema, and various attractions. We visited the fire station, the mud baths, and the cultural center for exhibitions. If you don't seek out entertainment, you might feel like your vacation was boring. Every city has something to offer; it's all about your willingness to explore.

The embankment is fantastic! There's a cafe, music, and it's perfect for cycling 👍👍👍. The beach has fine sand, just what children need. Everything your heart desires is within walking distance.

Lovely atmosphere. This year, there are many people, as it seems most, if not all, are vacationing in their homeland, which is quite delightful! The water is warm, the sun is gentle, and the people are kind and happy. The embankment is becoming increasingly refined.
