Imereti Bay is a resort area. It includes the villages of Mirny, State Farm Russia, Fun and others. Imereti Bay is located near Sochi (thirty kilometers). It was in this area that the main competitions of the 2014 Olympics took place. And it was thanks to the fact that the International Competitions were held that the Imereti Bay was transformed, received a new excellent infrastructure. The updated resort area is ready to receive a large number of tourists.
Tourist centers
The village of Veseloe is located in the Adler district of Sochi. South of this settlement is only Abkhazia. Fun is located in close proximity to the border. Adler's center is eight, and Sochi is thirty kilometers from the village. It is believed that Fun is the most unusual place in the Adler district. The main advantages of this part of the resort area are magnificent beaches, a huge selection of hotels and a completely even relief. The seaside part of Vesyol is called "State Farm Russia". Here, there previously existed an agricultural company for growing subtropical cultivated plants. A little aside lies the Olympic Park. These two regions are considered the main tourist centers in the Imereti Bay. Over the past few years, a lot of facilities have been built here. Among them are entertainment centers and hotel complexes. The embankment was equipped. Most of the territory was, of course, given for the construction of Olympic facilities. In addition, the Formula 1 track now runs here.
Relaxation
Tourists who would like to spend a vacation in the Imereti Bay are primarily concerned about the issue of accommodation. To date, two segments can be noted. The first should include large hotel complexes. They were built specifically for the Olympics. The second segment includes private mini-hotels. I must say that the latter is quite enough for the formation of healthy competition. The cost of accommodation is completely different. In new large complexes, prices rarely drop below 3000-4000 rubles per room per day.
Beaches
The coast of Imereti Bay is a wide pebble strip. Note that pebbles are sometimes so small that it can be difficult to distinguish from sand. It is for the sake of the beaches that many tourists go to this resort area. The main advantage of the coast is few people. In addition, there is no railway track over the beach (as, for example, in other areas).
