"Gold Coast" (Odessa): description and infrastructure of the beach

Odessa is the most colorful city in Ukraine, and its main advantage is its ability to surprise. In the summer, trains and buses drop out of their doors numerous lovers of relaxation at sea.

In this city there are many beaches, the most popular ones, but also those that are located among them, which are located closer to the center. If you drive away from the railway station on tram 18 towards the station "Bolshoy Fontan" and get to the very end of the "Pathways of Health", you will see a beautiful promenade and a beach with surprisingly soft and clean sand before your eyes. This is the "Gold Coast". Odessa, thanks to this place, is able to surprise travelers every time.

Description of the beach

If you take a tram or a fixed-route taxi (№215, 223) to 16 stations "Bolshoy Fontan", you can see in parallel to it a picturesque embankment. Beautiful and well-groomed flowerbeds, a large number of greenery and comfortable benches, cleanliness and blue sea surface - all this makes the "Gold Coast" (Odessa) not only a stunningly attractive stretch of the shore, but also a place where you can spend your time in the evening.

This small beach always seems full of people, although in fact it is loaded much less than its more popular holiday destination. This is due to the fact that to it from the city center you need to get about 30 minutes by public transport. But the purest sand and water of an unusual blue color, which you do not meet on other beaches, completely compensate the time spent.

Guests and residents of the city are greeted by two proud white stone lions, near which people like to be photographed by tourists. The embankment was recently restored, and now the beach "Gold Coast" (Odessa) looks like a cozy coastal area in the European seaside city.
