What is the advantage of the Riviera beach?

The resort of Sochi stretches along the sea for one hundred and fifty kilometers! But, alas, from one hundred and thirty one beaches one hundred one belongs to various sanatoriums, boarding houses, recreation centers and hotels. The remaining thirty are free. What awaits holidaymakers on these public beaches? The proximity of the mountains is determined by the fact that the shoreline is pebbly. The diameter of these pebbles can range from ten millimeters to five centimeters. As for the cover, "Riviera" - the beach is the most comfortable. The pebbles are as fine as sand. Other beaches are small, sandwiched between capes and representing a narrow strip of shore. At the peak of the season, which falls on July and August, the apple has nowhere to fall. And the width of the Riviera reaches fifty meters with a length of 300 m. So here it is spacious and in peak season. Even if you are lucky enough to find a deserted beach (usually within Greater Sochi), then the infrastructure on it leaves much to be desired. The Riviera has everything you need for a comfortable stay: changing cabins, showers, wooden decking, a rescue service, several cafes and even a ramp for the disabled.

Reviews of tourists with children

Sochi coast is quite difficult for small tourists. On most beaches, the depth begins just a half meter from the shore. The bottom is full of stones, pits and large pebbles. "Riviera" is a beach ideal for small legs. It is all lined with sand. Pebbles, and even those small, are only at the very edge of the water. To prevent the baby from getting burnt, umbrellas are placed throughout the rest zone, throwing a shallow, delicate shade. But the most important thing is that the approach to the sea is flat here, and the depth, which is dangerous for young children, begins five meters from the shore. But, as the responses say, although there are lifeguards on the beach, parents should not relax either. For a child on the water you need an eye and an eye. In 2010, the beach was ennobled. The reviews claim that it now meets all European standards for recreation with children.
