There is a beach in Taman, but sophisticated beach lovers are unlikely to call this resort an attractive place to relax. In our opinion, this is generally one of the most unsuccessful resort villages on the Taman Peninsula, and if the beach is fundamentally more important to you than the sights, then it is better to opt for the resorts of Golubitskaya or Kuchuguri, and come here during the day on your own or with an excursion.
✔ Advantages of Tamani beach
- Few vacationers
- You can drive to the shore by car
❌ Cons of Tamani beach
- The beach is rocky and pebbly, there is little sand
- No entertainment and infrastructure
- Muddy water
- Great depth
There is only one beach in Taman. It is located in the very center of the village and stretches a little more than a kilometer. The coast is rocky and pebbly, not sandy, which is not at all typical for the Taman Peninsula and this part of the coast, which is often referred to as the sandy shores of the Sea of Azov. But speaking for sure, this is not exactly the Sea of Azov, but the Taman Bay, which officially belongs to the Black Sea.
The water here is not very clean, especially during bad weather and wind. And the wind blows here often, which is why you can never see the clear water during your rest here. And another disadvantage of the beach is the great depth. Already 5 meters from the shore, the water is shoulder-deep, so you need to look after the children very carefully.
The equipped part of Taman beach has a length of less than 200 meters. There is a lifeguard tower, deck chairs for rent (200 USD), sunshades, and even something like an embankment. But everything is old and dilapidated, so don't expect much from this part of the beach. There is no water entertainment on the water at all, and on the shore there is only a mini-trampoline, rental of gyroscuters, children's electric cars, a tour. On the way to the beach there is a mini market with stalls selling souvenirs and leisure goods.
If you have a question where it is better to stay in Taman (in which place to choose a hotel), then you just need to choose a place as close as possible to the main passage to the beach along Pronina or Schmidt Street (Tamani beach on the map).
