💡 Tips

  • The therapeutic mud lakes (Lake Oyburskoye) are free to access; apply the mud, let it dry, and wash it off in the nearby sea.
  • The wide white-sand beaches can get breezy; bringing a windbreak will make your beach day much more comfortable.
  • Carry cash with you, as cards are often not accepted at the small beachside kiosks and local cafes.
  • Evenings in the village are generally quiet, making it a place for relaxation rather than a bustling nightlife scene.
