Volna is a Black Sea tourist village, but it will suit you only if you are looking for remote and quiet places for a beach holiday, where there are few tourists and a very quiet peaceful environment. The beach in Volna is Sandy, deserted, the depth is small and suitable for children. Since the Kerch Strait and the Sea of Azov are close, the water here warms up earlier than in other Black Sea resorts of the Krasnodar Territory and the Crimea. Perhaps for this reason, Dolphins like to appear off the local shores. You can see them very close even from the shore, and if you are lucky, and swim with them. There are no amenities and entertainment on the beach, it is completely wild. What is inconvenient, on the way to the beach you will have to overcome a considerable descent every time.
Infrastructure in the village is very poorly developed. In the center there is a grocery store, there are several cafes for tourists. There is no ATM and there are few places where you can pay with a card, so when going here, be sure to take cash. The nearest ATMs are in Veselovka and Taman.
There is no entertainment or attractions. You can spend time on the beach, in a cafe or go to the sights of the peninsula, for which you need your own transport.
