💡 Tips

  • Wear sturdy shoes for the rocky paths leading to Cape Agriya and the surrounding cliffs.
  • Bring plenty of water and snacks as there are very few shops near the cape or in the forest reserve.
  • Visit Cape Agriya at sunset for the most spectacular panoramic views of the Black Sea.
  • Use water shoes on the pebble beaches for a more comfortable entry into the clear water.
  • Plan your visit for September to enjoy the milder 'Velvet Season' weather and fewer crowds.
