It's a very beautiful place, great photos are taken, there's a well-equipped pebble beach nearby, there's a playground, and you can also buy ice cream. It was out of season, and a lot of shops were closed. You can also take photos with an eagle and other animals.
This is, of course, the business card of Gagra. Everywhere you look, there is beauty. The snow-white colonnade, opposite the Oldenburg Palace (the guide told us about it very interestingly), the most beautiful palm trees!!!
I was in Gagra in the 80s and 2024. You can put an equal sign between the years). Nothing has changed.
For the second year in a row, I choose this part of the Abkhazian beaches for recreation.
There is no steep descent into the water. It's comfortable.
There is a cafe and wi-fi. It's convenient.
Few people. It's nice.
The colonnade is historical and beautiful
We have been vacationing for 4 years on this beach, the locals themselves. It's getting better every year! There are few people, the water is clean. Sun beds and umbrellas at reasonable prices. But! Cafe Colonade on the beach has changed the cook and the owner. The food is just disgusting. Pasta is like milk noodles, quinicali is terrible. It's a pity, it used to be equally delicious. We highly recommend it now.
A great place, a business card of the city of Gagra. It's beautiful, especially in the evening. It often happens that live music is played. The fountain with a dove complements this landmark to its integrity and enlivens. I highly recommend it for a family visit, you will not regret it.
My favorite place, especially in winter, especially on New Year's eve 🎄)) There are a lot of tourists in summer, in autumn I like winter more when you walk along the Gagra embankment almost alone)) The sun is already warm
The only place in Gagra where they have put more or less order and developed infrastructure. There are a minimum of cafes, toilets and benches in the shade for relaxation.
It is a very beautiful place, I hope the rest of the places in Gagra will bring to a passer-by state.
A lovely colonnade with a fountain, which is on all magnets and is one of the business cards of Old Gagra along with Gagripsh. In the evening, they turn on a beautiful backlight. Here they will put a vulture, a falcon or a barn owl on your hand for a photo.
Excellent equipped beach.One of the best in Gagra. Two sun loungers under an umbrella 500r, a swinging wide sun lounger under a canopy for the whole day 1500r. I consider it an acceptable price for comfort.There is an atmospheric tropical-style cafe on the beach.The kitchen is very tasty, everything that was taken was very pleasant.But I would like to wish your waitress to have a good mood more often, and then it would be 100 out of 100)))But I still recommend this place, the atmosphere and the food are great!
A great place to walk! The beauty is indescribable ! A great desire to return. I recommend everyone to visit this place, especially in the evening to spend wonderful moments!
A beautiful landmark in Gagra. Snow-white columns stretched along the square. The approximate length of one column is 60 cm, built in the Moorish style. An arcade that combines 8 snow-white arches.
In the middle of the square there is a magnificent fountain with a small sculpture in the form of a white dove.
Combining together into one harmonious ensemble, all the elements form a single plot symbolizing peace on earth
Blissful beauty, the aroma of pine and the sea, an atmospheric place, two fountains, a beach with large pebbles, it is impossible not to fall in love with Gagra.
Beauty and sights are all around. The monument to our ancestors on the Russian Sea, as it was called before, and the glory of Abkhazia, we were able to preserve.
Nicely. The first stop in Abkhazia after the Psou. They lived here. Tourists around the clock. There are qigans walking around, hanging their animals on you. They get drunk with burnt wine from the horn, which is not washed and given to everyone in a row so that people get drunk and take more photos))) The animals are tired, twitchy poor devils, sitting in the heat. The colonnade itself has been restored recently. The colors are amazing. The blue sky merges with the sea and palm trees. I think that Abkhazia will flourish more soon. It's obvious that it's getting better.
A good place, especially for an evening promenade at sunset. Palm trees, lighting - impressive. There are a lot of cafes and restaurants nearby, gorgeous views of the sea and mountains. I recommend.
A very picturesque colonnade. Descending from the colonnade, you immediately go to the beach and the Seaside Park begins. Everything is clean and beautiful. Nearby - across the street there is a beautiful abandoned theater building. I really want it to be restored.
In June, the most well-maintained beach. An umbrella of 300 rubles. for the whole day. Comfortable. They came in the morning before 11, left in the heat and returned after 4...There are changing rooms with showers and a cafe nearby. A convenient place.
A beach cafe in a tropical style, with a dance floor, good service, a fairly varied menu (you can have a snack or eat quite a lot), beach services, in addition to sun beds there are bungalows for sunbathing. The beach is pebbly, on the beach right in the bathing area without marking the safety corridor with buoys, there is a banana with a boat and hydro scooters. Moreover, scooters can drive at speeds of 30 km or more. h. 10 meters from the shore, maneuvering among swimmers up to the pier on the north coast of Staraya Gagra. The way of offering services is also original; scooters float among swimmers 3 meters from the coastline and offer to ride (i.e. they pose a threat to life, fill the air with smoke and pollute the water). The dialogue from the outside looks something like this: "do you want to make your vacation in Gagra unforgettable? let's go for a ride on the floating ones, there will be fewer of them, you will swim like a king, alone on the beach." This is probably why most vacationers sit on the shore, look in horror at the dirty, stained water and are afraid to die, and some prefer to go to Pitsunda to swim. It would be good to mark with buoys the parking areas for water transport and bathing areas (as in the whole civilized world, 1 plastic buoy costs 800 rubles, wholesale is cheaper), so as not to scare away tourists, avoid conflicts and ensure everyone safety and a calm pleasant rest, and not arrange a water safari according to the principle: the strongest survives in the jungle and the most arrogant.
And in general, a nice beach with a wonderful view)
The main point of the Old Gagras. A business card. The colonnade was repaired, lighting and a fountain were made. It became so beautiful. The colonnade looks snow-white and airy. Well done!
The beach is rocky, but much better than in Adler, the stones are smaller. Everything is equipped: changing rooms, a shower and a place to sunbathe under a chaise longue or just on a towel. The views certainly deserve special attention, the territory in the pre-beach area is beautiful and convenient for recreation, for example, from walking to the sea.
Beautiful! Not a very clean beach, but basically like everywhere else! The water is warm, there are small pebbles under your feet! I want to come back!
The colonnade cafe serves simply disgusting food at inflated prices
The cradle is dry and salted (they covered it with a bunch of onions on top!)
The salad is just a small pile with vegetables
The boat is normal, but that's it.
And for all this, we gave away more than 3k!
The purest water on the Black Sea coast.
A beautiful colonnade. Amazing photos are obtained here. Beautiful palm trees and sea views. Opposite the winter theater and the Gagripsh restaurant.
Perhaps many people will recognize this beauty from the film "Winter Evening in Gagra" And for the second year I have been striving to Abkhazia to find myself here again. To breathe this air. Admire the unique nature.
Clean, there are sun beds,nearby cafes, refreshing drinks, ice cream and there is a menu for adults)))) Also going out to sea, there are cabins and water to rinse
In the last few years, the city has been restored, it is clean, the colonnade is very beautifully illuminated in the evening. Wonderful view of the sea on one side and the winter theater on the other
Beautiful colonnade. Well done, he is restoring his cities and country. Develop the infrastructure. Then your beautiful little country will be able to compete with the world resorts in terms of service.
We were passing through very beautifully. The beach is clean, the staff are polite and responsive in the cafe. We went Jeeping to the mountains in Abkhazia and were very satisfied.
As always, it's enchanting! In March, it is not crowded, it is not hot and it is very cool to meet spring with palm trees, coming down from Krasnaya Polyana!!!
Abkhazia.... It's a wonderful place... I'm going to spend my vacation there again this year. The beach is good, the only drawback is the tortured animals that are like an attraction..
Clean water, the absence of the usual pandemonium in Sochi and the relative cheapness of a few paid services - these are, perhaps, all the positive qualities. It is sad to see an entire country living on the ruins of the Soviet era, although in recent years, it seems, they have begun to restore something. So the park near the colonnade was bypassed, and the colonnade itself with a nearby fountain was restored.
The beach itself and the views are beautiful. Clean, relatively calm water.
It is better not to go to a cafe on the beach (first photo). You can, like me, get poisoned. I took a warm salad with chicken (it's good that I didn't take it with seafood). If it hadn't been for the poisoning on June 29, 2022, I would have put up more stars.
The beach is pebbly, there is some sand around the showers and changing rooms (not the best solution is to pour sand near the locker room, because the feet become dirty instantly). There are no hooks in the locker rooms, and there is wet sand on the floor. Where to put the bags is not clear.
You can buy everything for a beach holiday at a kiosk on the beach. Beautiful swing. Interesting musical accompaniment.
A great location for evening and afternoon photos.

The colonnade on the embankment was completely restored in Gagra. Beauty both day and night.
And the sea is still very gentle!!! (by the way, there are surprisingly not many people for July)
Everything about Abkhazia is super beautiful, first-class in everything. I hope that all of this will be repaired soon without heights, as in Sochi and will not destroy nature
The beach is dirty, those who ride jet skis are annoying, circling around us creating waves so that it would be more difficult for us to swim because we refused his services to ride
The beach is pretty, clean enough compared to other public beaches of Gagra, there are many cafes. But the lights are often turned off and the toilets are in trouble. Only paid services with hand washing from a bottle.
It's beautiful, I'll wash the only place that was put in order.
The beach is not well maintained. I was in the first, I hope that soon they will restore order and beauty in the city. You get to the USSR, forgotten and tired...
