Pitsunda Bay

The curved shoreline extends for 2 kilometers along the Black Sea coast, featuring pebble beaches and the rising Musser hills in the north.

The ancient Greeks established the city of Pitiunt near the bay in the 4th century BC, naming it after the pine trees that grew in abundance.

Local restaurants near the bay prepare traditional Georgian dishes and fresh seafood, reflecting the regional culinary traditions of the Black Sea coast.

The bay reaches depths of over 50 meters and includes a pier for maritime activities, while shallower waters in the northeast section allow for swimming.

The protected Pitsunda pine forest grows along Cape Pitsunda, containing trees that have adapted to the specific coastal conditions over centuries.
