Good afternoon, there are not so many people in Batumi during this period as in July and August. The sea is no longer cold, at least for adults, now, for example, it is already 21 22 degrees. .If the child is small, then the Batumi beach is not the most convenient place for him to swim and enter the sea, these are stones. If you are interested, write to me at [email protected]
I will send you a file with an overview of the coastal resorts. I can also offer you a vacation in the Ureki resort, with black magnetic sand, we have an excellent program from June 21 to July 1, which includes everything. http://kavkasia.ge/letnie-gruzinskie-skazki-2/

No, June is not the season yet. The man has been working with Georgians since 2013 and he constantly travels there and to Batumi including and we have been there both spring-winter-summer and autumn. I was surprised that in July the weather is .... with clouds, rain, we went to the beach no earlier than 14 hours, maybe it's cool in the morning ... Swimming on the beaches of Batumi is problematic, maybe huge cobblestones, summer sea in constant turmoil and with a child, I certainly would not swim there, so it was difficult. Service in the form of fronts, sunbeds, showers on the whole huge strip is missing !!!!! According to locals, the season starts in August and is short. Yes, there is something to see, especially if it is the first time. But I would not choose this resort as a seaside resort for relaxing and swimming in the sea, if I am inclined to children. Last May, they lived in the village of Kvariati. This is near Batumi, there was an opportunity to settle almost on the shore (in Batumi it is not possible).
Well, they will not add prices for housing, food, etc. despite the fact that they are very far from normal service.

I will continue. The sea is not the warmest. I know what I’m saying, since from the age of 1.5 my parents took me to Georgia on the coast every year for 3-4 months (I was born with a problem and only the Humid Georgian climate helped me overcome it. Therefore, my parents took me from April to September to Batumi, Kabuletti , Sukhumi .... Yes, where I just was not (this was before the war with Abkhazia, starting in 1976). I practically grew up there. And I remember that Georgia and now, of course, everything is completely different. Beautiful rebuilt embankment, hotels, towers and so on .... but from the beginning they started and they don’t know how to support. Everything falls into decay gradually. I love Georgia very much, no matter what, for its color, hospitality. But the complete lack of service and the desire to cut down more ... On beach, with huge pebbles, where you just can’t lie down .... and a complete lack of sunbeds (rarely, some cafes have everything). If you have any questions, write. You can read my two reviews here.

With the previous answer "But the complete lack of service and the desire to cut down more .." I agree completely. We flew last year Tbilisi-Kabuletti-Batumi-Istanbul. We bought into beautiful pictures about Georgia. We may have been unlucky, a complete deception and rip-off. For a year I have not advised any of my friends to visit this place. In June, the sea will simply be cold, so just go in for a swim.

Georgia has its own charm, delicious food and so on. But everything is rightly said, to put it mildly, large pebbles, the depth begins quickly. Of my 3 weeks at the end of June and the beginning of July, one week I was not on the beach at all, due to the weather. As the locals said, "this is Batumi." Well, the prices for housing + flight are incommensurable with the service, for the time being.

I would like to add that with the same requests for food, accommodation and excursions in Georgia, I had to spend twice as much money as in Istanbul. And I was surprised by the attitude of most people towards us, everyone will remember 2008, who has a matchmaker, who has a brother, husband, etc. Although I don’t understand what we have to do with it, ordinary people who came with peace and friendship to see the country.

If we compare Georgia and Turkey, then of course the service in Turkey is recognized in Europe. Georgia has not yet reached such heights, but Georgia is still close and understandable. I have been living and working in Georgia for the seventh year, I could dispute many of the points mentioned above, but I will not waste time, neither mine nor yours. Before you go somewhere, you need to consult with professionals, and then there will be no such amount of negativity from the rest.

Kavkasia, what about the professionals. Since my husband was often there for work, they merged him and his colleagues in excellent hotels, they took food to the best establishments and at the expense of the employer. They showed the beauties of Georgia (seasonal excursions were organized on the weekends (Kazbek, Gudauri, monasteries, springs, baths, etc.) we were in many places. Last year we were offered to choose the location ourselves, as there were actually more than 20 people and there were children (pleasant with useful) and we settled in Kvariati in one of the guest houses. The program was not a tourist one, we visited places where ordinary tourists are not taken en masse, we saw something that we had not seen before. In general, we are satisfied. The nature is beautiful, the food is amazing, but we are 90 % paid and organized by the employer!!!

I do not compare Georgia and Turkey, these are not comparable countries and types of recreation! I'm talking about the fact that you can always come up with a good quality vacation in Georgia at reasonable prices, the main thing is to be able to do it.
аватар moy_contakt
But you must admit that there are more successful countries for a beach holiday with children, where the conditions and service for a family vacation are set up. Georgia in this regard, alas, is not an option. Only last year we took our son, 11 years old, from three children with us to Georgia, and only because everyone took children, but not younger than 10 years old, because there was a very active excursion. Georgia should not be considered as a full-fledged beach about breathing.
аватар Kavkasia
I agree that there are options, but if the family wants Georgia, then you can come up with something. But you are right, you need to immediately understand some things,
1. This will not be a Turkish service and all inclusive
2. It will not be such a blue sea as the Adriatic
3. Georgia is still small, as a mass beach destination, and if you choose by service, then, you are right, there are other countries.
???? but I am sure that you can and should go to Georgia, but not with small children in the terrible heat and 100 percent humidity of the coast! And yesterday it was +32 in Tbilisi...

I have been vacationing in Georgia for a week now, I will only get to Batumi the day after tomorrow, I will write about the sea.
So far, I agree that Georgia is not for a beach holiday. This is a wine tour, mountains, rafting, rural tourism, historical, sanatorium, pilgrimage, whatever ... but not an eggplant-beach destination. Prices for accommodation and food are low, only excursions and transport are expensive. The nature is good, but the historical heritage is in a very neglected state: the smoky, crumbling old quarters of Tbilisi, abandoned sanatoriums and mansions of Borjomi, fortresses and churches that are not being restored all over the country ... But wine and cuisine help to close one's eyes to these regrettable things.
аватар Kavkasia
ollennka, I agree that not all of Tbilisi has been restored, Borjomi is now being restored, after the last war in 2008, as well as other resorts, but churches that are not being restored - I know all of Georgia inside and out, I have not seen this. But everywhere I see the hospitality of Georgians and their efforts to do everything to make guests like Georgia
аватар ollennka
After what war in 2008 is Borjomi being restored?? Military operations went on for 10 days and Borjomi was not touched in any way. There are a lot of abandoned sanatoriums and just abandoned buildings, it looks creepy. So many luxurious mansions of Russian and Soviet times disappear, and you can earn a lot of money on them.
аватар anna_lesheva
War is such a thing ... even though there was no bombing in Borjomi, but many fled, abandoned their homes. and the economy of the country was greatly shaken by the war.
Georgia is a great country! Traveled with a 2 year old. Were in Tbilisi and Batumi. It's definitely worth the trip!
And those who are sweeter than Turkey and have not seen all-inclusive - you by) I agree that comparing Turkey and Batumi is not right. And have you been to Turkey in an unpromoted resort place? It smells of manure everywhere throughout the country) Turkey is good in its own way!
Georgia is a beautiful country, do not hesitate - come. We are also going there again in the middle of June!
аватар ollennka
You exaggerate the significance of the events of 2008. The sanatoriums have been empty for a long time, we learned that the population has been noticeably decreasing since 1994.
Georgia is a beautiful country, but Turkey is really better for a beach holiday. Yes, I am comparing exactly tourist places in both countries, because why do I need non-tourist places, I am a tourist and I want to see the sights first of all.
By the way, about the weather in Batumi, as promised. It is unstable: either a downpour, or the sun fries. The sea is already warm for my taste, although there are big waves. There are a lot of sunbeds on the beach, few tourists.
There are many construction sites, the roads, it seems to me, are busier than in Tbilisi. In the season, apparently, the traffic will be even more intense.

Today, several thousand people have gathered in front of the parliament building in Tbilisi demanding the resignation of the government. The organizers of the action called on the President of the country to join the protesters.
Earlier today, a protest rally was held near the building of the Prosecutor General's Office of Georgia, thanks to which the opposition achieved the resignation of the Prosecutor General

Tomorrow the season officially opens in Batumi))). Here some protests began first in Tbilisi, then Batumi picked it up. No one beats anyone, but they shout loudly. Just for information.
