Tuapsinsky District

Tuapsinsky District is a municipal area along the Black Sea coast in Krasnodar Krai, stretching across a large territory and containing two urban settlements and numerous rural communities. The area combines coastal zones with mountainous landscapes across its expanse.

The district was established on January 26, 1920, and went through several administrative restructurings in its early decades. These changes shaped how the area is organized today.

The population here reflects the diversity of the North Caucasus, with Russian and other ethnic communities sharing the region and their daily routines. Walking through the district, you notice how different groups have settled alongside each other over time.

The port city of Tuapse functions as a transportation hub, connecting railway lines with maritime shipping on the Black Sea. You can reach and explore the region by both land and water routes.

The area is known for mixing agricultural production in the flat coastal areas with maritime industries at the ports. These two different economic sectors work closely together and shape the region's working life.
