Batumi, Georgia’s vibrant seaside city, transforms into a summer paradise where the Black Sea meets modern charm. Whether you’re looking for relaxation, adventure, or nightlife, Batumi has it all — a blend of palm-lined boulevards, historic architecture, and beach vibes that make it one of the most exciting destinations in the Caucasus.
Batumi’s coastline stretches for kilometers, offering pebbled beaches, beach clubs, and water sports. Popular spots include Batumi Beach near the Boulevard, Makhinjauri Beach for quieter days, and Green Cape near the Botanical Garden. The clear waters of the Black Sea are perfect for swimming, jet skiing, or simply watching the sunset.
As the sun sets, Batumi comes alive. Beach bars, rooftop lounges, and nightclubs fill the city with music and energy. Don’t miss Chacha Tower in the evening, the Piazza Square with live performances, or the Batumi Boulevard promenade, where locals and tourists mingle under the palm trees.
Beyond the beach, explore Batumi’s mix of old and new. Visit the Ali and Nino statue, the moving monument of love, or admire the Alphabet Tower — a modern symbol of Georgian identity. Art lovers will enjoy the Batumi Art Museum and colorful street murals scattered around the old town.
Summer in Batumi is also a culinary journey. Enjoy fresh seafood, Adjarian khachapuri (cheese bread with egg and butter), and a glass of chilled Georgian wine by the sea. The seaside restaurants and cafés offer both local and international flavors, always with a warm Georgian welcome.
Batumi’s peak season runs from June to September, when the weather is warm and the city buzzes with festivals and open-air concerts. For a calmer experience, visit in May or late September — the sea is still pleasant, and the crowds are fewer.
Batumi captures the essence of Georgian summer — sea, sun, culture, and joy. Whether you come for the beaches, nightlife, or Black Sea views, you’ll find yourself falling in love with this coastal gem of Georgia.
