Why

  1. The Black Sea off Batumi warms more slowly than the air, so the water is warmest in late summer.
  2. Batumi is one of Georgia's rainiest cities, with fewer sunny days than Tbilisi.
  3. After heavy rain and wind, the water near the shore turns cooler and murkier for a while.

Details

The black sand people often ask about is not in Batumi itself but further north at Ureki, where it contains magnetite. Batumi's beaches are pebbly.

Tip

If you like warm water, plan your trip for late July, August or early September.
