There are not trains there and do not fly airplanes, but with a lot of desire to get fast, you can use personal transport or public transport to get from Novorossiysk.
In my opinion, Gelendzhik himself and its surroundings - have a mysterious moment.
Having visited the night excursion with tents not far from the city in the mountains, personally, it is still terrible.
We were pleased to visit the famous stone buildings (with round deepening inside) - called dolmen.
About them there are all sorts of legends, starting with the fact that:
• The age and origin of dolmen equates to the Egyptian pyramids
• It is believed that stone houses are a dwelling of dwarf
• It is known that the buildings served as family tombs
• Alien creatures built shelters
Finishing with noby:
• Having gathered at the night fire, the guide told us his story about a mysterious place.
"One couple in love, fighting off from the sightseeing group and wandering around the mountain trails, just got lost and was forced to swell just in this place where we are now.
Found the doves of shaking not from the cold (stood the month of July and wild heat), and from fear. The guys were told that at night there was a rain, forced them to hide in one closed house with a hole, but they could not be there for a long time. Raindrops for sound resembled stonepad, and the falling leaves are ringing glass ... "
After the story, I did not get out of the tent until the dawn, and now I am tormented by the question of: "Why did you find these most dolmers in the excavations in the Gelendzhik?"
And the second memorable moment of my three-day holidays in Gelendzhik was a walk along the longest embankment in the world. Blindness and purity. In the morning quiet and more complex, and in the evening you can enjoy the beauties of the bay, leaning on the railing, substituting the face by blowing the wind from the sea.
Beach option, amusement parks, water park and other similar events do not differ from other Russian resorts any significant. Not particularly clean places by the sea, the pussy of people and bustle.
If possible, you can find secluded swimmingaces, however, with a large pebble and from the center it is distant, but clean water and free seats for sunbathing is an important point for positive vacation.
