Mamayka Beach
A quiet coastal neighborhood north of central Sochi - Mamayka Beach is the choice of local families. Mix of pebbles and sand makes it more comfortable than pure pebble beaches. Less crowded than famous Riviera Beach, with authentic local neighborhood atmosphere. Very good water quality thanks to fewer crowds. Easy train access with the station nearby makes it convenient for those staying elsewhere in Sochi. The beach has a genuine, unpretentious Russian seaside vibe that's hard to find at the main tourist beaches.
