Отдых в Кобулети: путеводитель
Kobuleti: when to go, how to get there, and what it costs.
Kobuleti is a seaside town about 25 km north of Batumi, strung out along the shore and built mostly for the summer. It is quieter and cheaper than Batumi and the beach runs for several kilometres, so it is popular with families from Tbilisi and from Armenia. Outside July and August much of it is shut.
Когда ехать
- ·July and August are full, the sea is warm and prices are at their highest. Many guesthouses only really open for these two months.
- ·June and September have fewer people and lower prices. The sea is warmer in September than in June.
- ·October to May is wet and quiet, and most of the beach cafes are closed. Fine for a cheap, quiet stay, not for a beach holiday.
Как добраться
- ·By train from Tbilisi to Kobuleti station, on the same train that goes on to Batumi. A little under four hours. In summer buy tickets well ahead.
- ·By marshrutka or bus from Batumi, about forty minutes along the coast road.
- ·From Batumi airport by taxi, about forty minutes, longer in summer traffic.

Один совет
Kobuleti is very long and very thin. Check exactly where on that strip a place is before you book: a room in Kobuleti can be a long way from the station, the shops or the part of the beach you had in mind.
