A comfortable rest in the city, a shallow warm sea, a gentle beach, the necessary infrastructure, including lifeguards, doctors and police posts, are all Omega Beach in Sevastopol.
Description
This resting place is located in the western part of Kruglaya Bay, in the Gagarinsky district of the city. Its second name, Omega (known since the mid-19th century), is more popular. The bay is very similar to this capital letter of the Greek alphabet.
The beach is sandy and shallow, only about 5-8 meters. Only the middle part of the coast is clayey with insignificant stones. A small layer of water warms up quickly, so the bottom is covered almost all summer with a thin layer of algae, which during the surf or storm form a beautiful fluffy green carpet on the beach.
On one of the protrusions of the coast, Cape Peschanoy, the water is much cleaner and more transparent. This place was chosen by divers and diving enthusiasts. The opening views are said to be of stunning beauty. There is also a natural mud bath here. Sludge deposits help relieve pain in the joints, smooth the skin and raise the overall tone of the body.
The beach is almost 30 meters wide and stretches over 700 meters.
Infrastructure
There are many different attractions open here, delights in water and trampolines delight children. There are several cafes with menus for every taste and budget. In the evening, discos are held on the beach and often live music is played. For lovers of outdoor activities on the beach in Omega Bay (Sevastopol), rental points are open. You can always rent jet skis, catamarans, beach accessories, etc.
On the opposite shore of the bay, the private Yacht Club South offers guests to rent a yacht or windsurfing equipment. For fishing you can rent a long boat.
On the beach "Omega" (Sevastopol) flights are organized on kite and hang glider.
Around the bay there are many residential buildings in which you can always find a room or a turnkey apartment for every taste and budget. There are several hotels within walking distance.
At a distance of one public transport stop there are two markets with fresh local fruits, vegetables and wines, as well as supermarket chains and small shops of souvenirs and beach items.
Promenade
There is a well-organized recreation area. It has many restaurants, fast food outlets, cafes and bars. For kids and teenagers, although adults will not refuse to have fun, various attractions (ball, slides, etc.) are installed, including Crazy Cart, game labyrinths, playgrounds, all kinds of swings and carousels. There are rental bicycles, gyro scooters, etc.
"Paddling pool"
This is the beginning of the beach area in Omega Bay (Sevastopol). Unworthy swimmers, families with small children and elderly people have a rest here. The bottom and shore are mostly sandy with small interspersed small pebbles. The entrance to the water is gentle. But an adult, to go into the sea at least to the waist, you need to walk about ten meters. On the other hand, the places here are unpredictable: there are such hollows that a child can leave with his head.
Since this place is intended for bathing children, a lifeguard is always on duty here. From the infrastructure in this part of the Omega beach (Sevastopol) - canopies (peers of the beach), left-luggage offices, changing cabins and rental of equipment and beach equipment.
For children, there are several attractions, inflatable slopes and an outdoor sports ground. Not far from the beach, at the boat station, you can rent a pedalo and take a look at the surroundings from the sea.
Central recreation area
There are two ways to get to this part of the Omega beach (Sevastopol): making your way through the rows of sunbeds or going down the beautiful promenade. There are mobile awnings, rental of beach equipment and changing cabins. The shore is more pebble, although sand is brought to all sections of the beach by the opening of the season. But as guests of the city write in reviews, it is distributed fragmentarily. Pebbles in the water are covered with algae. Depth is gaining gradually.
Showers are provided, but they rarely work. A signpost directs those eager to flush sea salt to the boat station. But there is a paid Charcot's shower. It’s quite difficult to enter the sea behind the pier on which it is installed, especially after a storm or high tide: algae covers absolutely everything.
There are no webcams here. And by the way, thin grooves flowing into the sea, this is nothing more than a channel of melt and rainwater.
Her second half
This part of the central beach is considered the most comfortable for relaxing by the sea in Sevastopol. The water is cleaner than everywhere, the bottom is deeper and the sand is nicer. Sunset at sea is smooth, there are special wooden flooring. Rental offices are also open here, changing cabins and a hot shower are organized. At the pier in the daytime, a lifeguard is on duty, who is also a medic.
Close to numerous cafes and bars, cozy lounge areas are equipped. For children's pleasure, an inflatable slope with a pool in which sea water was poured was installed near the Mariner bar. At the pier guests of the resort are waiting for bananas, tablets, jet skis, etc.
On the northern border of the beach there is a ramp and a changing room for people with disabilities. However, the latter write in their reviews that it’s quite difficult to call in a wheelchair, and they ask the beach owners to organize a holiday according to the requirements for “Accessible beaches”.
Interesting changes
Today, the coastline intended for swimming has been increased due to the beach area of the Omega dolphins located behind the second pier. She stretched from the boat station to the Wild Omega. Judging by the reviews, the Omega beach in Sevastopol becomes cleaner and more comfortable from year to year.
Prohibition signs are installed on the southern and northern borders. It is forbidden to swim in the "game" beloved by the townspeople and on the south coast of the bay. In the first case, the coastal zone has not been explored and, therefore, is unsuitable for swimming, in the second - there is an official parking lot for small boats.
