Batumi is famous for it's Boulevard, which is one of the favourite places of teenagers and on the whole for the people of all ages. The Boulevard is lovely and the musical fountains are spectacular at night. The open air nightclubs and different kinds of cafes are tastefully done. Behind the beach is a well-kept park with a seafront promenade, where most of the action takes place during the day. In between the trees are many cafes serving Batumi-style Turkish coffee and snacks such as kebabs (mtsvadi) and Acharuli Khachapuri. During the summer Batumi is visited by famous singers all over from Georgia and some foreigner musicians also. So lots of concerts are held in the Boulevard during the summer. Although Batumi beach is stony, it still is a great and favorable place for everybody. At the beach there are various fun things you can do like playing volleyball, rugby. In the water you can drive scooters, get on parachutes.

The Black Sea: In Batumi you can enjoy the waves and admire the beach and the port itself. Also see the following: Nurigeli lake, Oceanarium (locally called a delphinarium), beautiful beach park, orthodox, catholic, armenian churches and an old mosque. City centre is interesting for its distinctive 19th century Imperial style architecture. Between Poti and Batumi lies Kobuleti, an unsinspiring albeit cheap beach resort, where many Georgians and Armenians spend their holidays. There is not much to be seen, beside the pebble beach. However the peak which you have to pass on the road to Kobuleti is beautiful and you can check out the remains of Petra Fortress overlooking the beautiful sea landscape. To the south of Batumi visit the remains of Gonio Fortress and the village of Sarpi - where a Georgian-Turkish border starts. To the north of a city - an absolute must see is a Batumi Botanical Garden, more than a century old. Georgia has a remarkable tradition of (royal) botanical gardens. It is a quiet spot, next to the Black Sea on a high cliff and it both green and cool. Take marsrutka no. 1 along the coast north until the endpoint, where you find some refreshment stalls
