Attractions and entertainment of Kabardinka and what to see

In Kabardinka, in fact, there is only one attraction – this is an old Park, which people come to see even from remote resorts. But this does not mean that you will have to be bored on vacation here. In between beach holidays, you can go on excursions to attractions in the Gelendzhik area and to other places in the Krasnodar Territory and even to neighboring regions. The choice of excursions is large, the prices for group tours are affordable for every vacationer. For example, here are the prices for the most popular day trips per adult/child in rubles:

• Gelendzhik sightseeing with wine tasting-350/300.
• Novorossiysk obzor – 600/500.
• Abrau-Durso – 700/600.

• Guam gorge – 1600/1400.

You can buy excursions from distributors on the streets and beaches, in hotels and travel agencies. Prices from different sellers differ slightly, besides, sometimes you can even get an additional discount for children or a large group. Just check before buying that you still have to pay extra to the cost during the Tour, since usually the entrance fee and other additional costs are not included.

An excellent alternative to monotonous group excursions are individual author tours. You can pick up such tours or regular group excursions online on these proven sites:

In Kabardinka there is a lot of entertainment for children and all families. The scale here is not the same as in Gelendzhik, but there is a small water park, Dolphinarium, dinosaur park, amusement rides, rope park, etc. Moreover, which is very convenient, all these entertainments are compactly located in one zone in the center on Mira Street. Well, if this does not seem enough to you, then you can go yourself by taxi or bus, or buy an excursion to the entertainment of Gelendzhik. It is worth visiting the largest water park in Russia, a cable car to Mount Olympus, a safari park with a cable car, a modern amusement park. See more:

Entertainment for young people and night entertainment in Kabardinka is not very much, after all, it is more of a family resort. You can spend time in the Bowling Club, Karaoke "Chaika", dine in the restaurant overlooking the sea or drink alcoholic beverages in one of the many cafes on the waterfront. There are several nightclubs, in particular the most popular – Omega and Space Club.

And now more about the sights and entertainment that are located directly in Kabardinka and close to the resort, and which are easy to visit yourself:

Old Park

The Old Park is the most famous and iconic landmark, without visiting which you can not leave Kabardinka. True, the cost of visiting the park is quite high, and the price rises almost every year.

To see the architectural objects and landscape design of the park come even from distant resorts. The territory features 40 architectural objects of different eras and cultures, more than 100 species of plants from around the world, there are two museums-the House of the Caucasus and the House of the East, an art gallery. You can walk around the park on your own, but it is more interesting with excursion accompaniment, which is included in the ticket price and starts every 3 minutes. To visit the park, you should plan a few hours, and preferably half a day for a leisurely and pleasant walk.

Boat trips

One of the mandatory points of rest in Kabardinka are boat trips. True, it is worth noting right away that the prices here are higher, and the variety of programs and vessels is less than the offers of sea walks in Gelendzhik. So you can alternatively take a bus to Gelendzhik during the day and go on boat trips there (see more about boat trips in Gelendzhik).

From Kabardinka, two standard walks are offered, as well as individual tours and sea fishing at your request.

• Rock "sail" with disembarkation on the beach in the village of Praskoveyevka lasting 6 hours, 1200/650 rubles.
• Boat trip to the sunken ship, swimming in the open sea and meeting with dolphins for 1.5 hours, 650/300 rubles.

Mini water park "Hellas"

A small water park consisting of several simple spiral slides, a pool and a slide for kids, a recreation area and a sunbed. Of course, you should not consider it as a full-fledged replacement for large water parks, but as a place to spend a day on vacation with children, it is quite suitable. Before buying tickets, you can look at the territory and slides through the fence, and if the water park does not suit you, we recommend that during the day you go to the largest in Russia water park "Golden Bay" in Gelendzhik.

Rope park "Uzelok"

In Kabardinka there is a good rope park, consisting of as many as six routes and a children's troll. Tracks and trolls are focused primarily on children, adults are allowed to be limited. The intervention on the track is preceded by instruction, and the instructor controls the passage itself, but you will have to pay an additional 200 rubles for his services. Gloves are also additionally paid (50 USD), if you do not have your own. We recommend this place for visiting with children.

The city of Kuban Masters

The city of Kuban Masters or the yard of crafts is something like an exhibition and theme park of the Cossacks in the open air. Here you can learn about the traditional crafts of the Kuban and see their results, as well as for an additional fee to take master classes on making souvenirs in one of the chosen ways. For example, it can be the manufacture of soft toys, modeling, blacksmithing, chasing and much more. There is also a playground, sometimes festivals, holidays and concerts are held, there is a restaurant. In general, this place will definitely be interesting for families with children of all ages.

DinoPark

DinoPark is entertainment for younger children. Here children will be able to see large figures of dinosaurs that move their limbs and heads, make sounds. Also in the park there is a "simulator" of archaeologists, i.e. a sandbox with "bones" of dinosaurs, which children are happy to dig up. Adults Park will not be interesting. Similar dinosaur park is located in Gelendzhik, only the entrance price there is slightly less.

Dolphinarium Of Kabardinka

Kabardinka has its own open-air Dolphinarium. It is small in size, but the quality of the show does not suffer from this, both adults and children will like it. Black Sea bottlenose dolphins and seals participate in the presentation. For an additional fee, I offer photos and swimming with dolphins.

Crocodile Canyon

This is a nursery and zoo of crocodiles, where you can look at these predatory reptiles, learn a lot about them from the guide's story, take pictures with small crocodiles in your hands (for an additional fee), feed large predators. Perhaps the last action is the most interesting and causes real delight and fear of the joys that have never been in such places. In addition to crocodiles, there is a python, a turtle, a chameleon. There is a petting zoo, which is paid separately.

Amusement park "Lunopark"

This is a small park of several simple attractions for children and adults. There are no extreme crusts or swings, but only simple carousels for children, an upside-down house, virtual reality, a 3D cinema, trampolines, bouncers and, perhaps, the most extreme – a children's roller coaster. For entertainment with children, the park is quite suitable, but adults will have to go for modern extreme attractions in amusement park in Gelendzhik by bus or taxi.

The sunken ship "Rio"

This is a new attraction in Gelendzhik district, located on the shore near Kabardinka. A multi-tonnage cargo ship ran aground on the shore in 2018 during a severe storm. During the accident, no one was injured, but the ship remained in place, and most likely will remain here for a long time as a tourist attraction. It can be viewed from the outside for free, and for the most curious there are guided tours of the deck and interior of the ship for a fee. For the ascent to the deck there is a staircase.
