From Anapa to Gelendzhik

Utrish Landscape Reserve. Here are the cleanest and most deserted beaches of Anapa coast. Unique representatives of flora and fauna can be found on the territory: 1000-year-old trees, mute swans, Mediterranean butterflies, loons and grebes.

To make the long drive not seem tiresome, make a stop at the Novorossiysk embankment. Along the promenade there are a large number of sculpture groups. At the end of the promenade you can see the cruiser "Mikhail Kutuzov".

Then you will be transferred to Kabardinka and on the way to Gelendzhik, and now it's time to eat. The cafe "Abrikos" in Novorossiysk serves European and Japanese cuisine.

See Chinese pagodas, Roman ruins and Gothic castles without leaving Kabardinka? Easily! You can do so in the "Old Park", where miniature replicas of famous landmarks are presented.

The lighthouse is not immediately recognizable in this building, but it has served its purpose from the beginning of the last century to the present day.
Since the lighthouse is still in operation, we will have to confine ourselves to looking around from the outside.

At Tolstoy Cape, the promenade ends and scenic natural vistas begin. If you are not tired, you can walk along the coast.

The Metropol Hotel restaurant is open daily from 19:00.
The menu features a combination of modern Russian and Mediterranean cuisine, locally produced cheeses and a worthy selection of local wines.

Tomorrow you are to get acquainted with the modern art of Gelendzhik, with the works of writers of the last century, and, of course, have a good walk. And today it's time to go back to the hotel and rest.
In Gelendzhik I stayed at the Metropol Hotel, but you can choose Dacha Resort Hotel and also get cashback from Mastercard partner Booking.com.
