But at the same time, there are several comfortable beaches. They will be discussed below.
Victory park beach
The beach in Victory Park is one of the most popular beaches in Sevastopol. It is a small pebble beach with some large boulders near the water. The beach is divided into sectors by breakwaters. You can jump from the breakwaters into the sea, but be careful, as there are rocky ledges and boulders.

Crystal Beach
In the very center of the city there is the Khrustalny beach on the shore of the bay of the same name. The beach is covered with concrete, and the entrance to the water is carried out along small ladders. The depth of the sea is very perceptible - 2 meters from the very entrance to the water, so it is not recommended to relax here with children.

Beaches of Quarantine Bay and Chersonesos
Near Chersonesos and the two bays that flank it - Karantinnaya and Pesochnaya, there are several beaches, but they are not equipped and you should swim there carefully, especially in the bays. Even if the entrance to the water is shallow, then slippery stones lie at the bottom and you can slip.
Near the Chersonesos reserve itself there are also wild beaches, where swimming is not officially prohibited, but not recommended, since this is a museum-reserve territory. There is no beach infrastructure here.
The only plus of these beaches, especially in the Quarantine Bay, is a magnificent view of the Chersonesos ensemble, its ruins and the cathedral.

The beach has stationary sun awnings, changing rooms, a toilet, lifeguards, beach and water equipment rental. There is a shady park nearby.
Beaches of the Cossack Bay
These are wild beaches with no infrastructure. The cover is sometimes sand with grass or pebbles, often framed by rocks, from where the locals like to jump into the water. In some places, the entrance to the water is gentle and convenient. Here you can spend the night in tents, have picnics.

Not far from the beach is Diana's grotto, which is located on the very Cape of Lermontov (by the way, the famous poet has nothing to do with the name of this cape, just his namesake lived nearby). The grotto can only be reached by water.
Jasper beach on Fiolent
Jasper Beach is a unique pebble beach at Cape Fiolent. Here, unusually clear sea water, extraordinary pebbles of various shades, and pieces of jasper and chalcedony polished by the sea come across. The beach is framed by rocks, so the descent here goes along an old stone staircase of 800 steps.
