- Built in **1861** by French engineers commissioned by the Russian Empire, - The height of the lighthouse is **37 meters**, which makes it one of the highest on the Black Sea coast. It is a symbol of Sukhum, often depicted on postcards and in tourist materials. It's a very interesting design, especially the door made in Paris.

Yes, the lighthouse is really working! We got there with my wife in the evening, when he started working. It seemed to us that it would be higher, but we didn't care))) The approach to it is not quite simple, through some kind of gate next to the former factory. But it didn't bother me) It doesn't burn all the time. As someone wrote, it burns for 5 seconds, about 8 rests. We took photos and videos and decided to go to the lighthouse itself. Of course it is closed, but we were impressed by the door! Antique, 188.. some year ago. 81 like. not the point... He's all steel. Such a "giant"! Monumental, powerful and modest, shining alone into the distance for up to 30 km, to wandering ships.....

The lighthouse is more than 150 years old. It has not functioned for many years, and now it is working again. You can't go inside, the door is closed. It would be interesting to go up to the top of the lighthouse, I can imagine what magnificent views there are. The surrounding area is not gentrified. Be careful when visiting, especially at night.

A wonderful place!The purest sea (because it is a cape), not a large pebble, a strip of sand and a lighthouse.I have known him for more than half a century (all my life), I have climbed up more than once.Excellent view of the surrounding area, even New Athos is visible.I remember the lighthouse as snow-white, it was refreshed annually.And for thirty years now it has been rusting, although it continues to honk.The lighthouse keeper's house has been destroyed.Enthusiasts and funds are needed to restore and preserve this monument.

To the lighthouse at the gate from Krasnomayakskaya Street. Further along the beach towards the center, everything is open. We walked around quietly. There are a lot of mussels on the beach

We rented a room in a guest house in the city of Sukhum near the old lighthouse when we were vacationing on the Black Sea in July. There are few people on the beach, the sea is transparent and warm, but you need special rubber shoes to go into the sea, since the shore is covered with large and small pebbles.

A place that was once closed to the public. Only those who lived there could visit, namely - I served it. The passage is now open to everyone. Several times this coast was even used for the filming of feature films. There are always a lot of dolphins in the morning, almost on the shore.

If you are in Sukhum, be sure to go to the lighthouse. The lighthouse was made in the 19th century in France. The Lighthouse overlooks the New Athos. Yes, and just sit here next to him on the seashore and relax very much. 👍

A pleasant place, very quiet and almost deserted. Nearby is a beautiful wild beach, the sounds of the waves of which quietly reach the lighthouse itself and, in conjunction with the singing of birds, create a good ambient (sound background). The lighthouse itself is rusted, which makes it look a little sad, but much more atmospheric.

Vacation in August 2023. Minuses: 1).The distance from the center, minibuses rarely run - every 40-50 minutes, very full, you can not get in and ... wait for the next one. 2). Minibuses finish walking at 19-00, then only call a taxi - 400-500 rubles. 3).Lights are often turned off in the area, pumps are turned off and there is no water. 4). Together with friends, we lived in houses- along Krasnomayakskaya Street 90 and 92- the entrances are scary, dirty, the cobwebs hang to the floor, the electrics in the houses are old - when the air conditioner was constantly cutting down the plugs, the water pressure is very low - after the sea it is difficult to wash and it is difficult to wash the dishes, the water barely flows. And after 9 pm and until one o'clock in the morning there is no water, as the locals water the gardens. There are a lot of cockroaches in these houses-even infection carriers crawl in the entrances. There is a private sector near the houses, cows are constantly mooing and roosters are singing.5). It is very far to walk in the open sun from these houses to the bus stop. If you don't have a car and carry bags of groceries, it's a nightmare. It takes about 20 minutes to get to the market. If you are without a car, you should not settle here for a vacation. 6). There is no normal store, as well as at least a small collapse with fruits in small stalls - mostly water and alcohol.7). The road to the lighthouse is along the roadsides in the mountains of garbage. The lighthouse itself is a rusty, dirty structure. There is a toilet around it, since it is not on the beach.8). The beach is not big, no one cleans it. The entrance to the water is by large stones. There is no changing booth. Under a few trees, everything is polluted, as there is no toilet. The beach is blocked by huge rusty pillars - it can be seen that there was a fence once. I didn't find any advantages, the rest turned into a nightmare.

Friends, there is an interesting place in Sukhumi, a picturesque "abandonment" on the seashore, this is a Lighthouse, it was near it in July 2023, local residents say that the lighthouse operates, but already in automatic mode, and before it was the development of infrastructure, which you can observe and guess how powerfully and harmoniously everything worked in the old days, Soviet times!

What is this attraction?? All entrances to the lighthouse are closed.. Well, somehow they found a passage, so everything is boarded up there. Devastation... I was disappointed in Sukhumi and its sights. Just like the griffin fountain, it doesn't work... They are stacked in a row... 2 hours of travel in vain

Devastation. One of the advantages is a wild beach and dolphins often come. It is surprising that with such a large number of tourists, the administration does not have enough desire and funds to restore.

Clean beach, not crowded in September. The place is very picturesque. If you walk a little further along the shore, you can see how fishermen catch fish. It's a pity that I'll never see it again.

A fabulous beach near the lighthouse, of course, not sand but pebbles, but the water was very clean and warm, there is a children's mini pad with a bed by the sea nearby), local horses walk on the beach every evening. And the sunset is very soft and beautiful.
