Sea station in Sochi

What to Expect and Is It Worth Visiting

Sochi Sea Terminal - one of the symbols of the city and an important point for reference, an architectural landmark of federal significance. The building of the sea station was opened in 1955, and the work was carried out under the supervision of famous Soviet architects K. S. Alabyan and L. B. Karlik.

The architectural style of the sea station is the Stalinist Empire or triumph style. This is the same style in which the capital's famous Stalin skyscrapers were built. The line was conducted from 1936, i.e. almost 20 years, and was a model of large-scale Soviet construction for the development of the resort education of Sochi-Matsesta.

For tourists, the Sea station today is a beautiful majestic building, from where many tourist "adventures" begin. So, here starts a new walking route along the historical Boulevard, from here begins the main embankment of Sochi and the city beaches. And here you can buy tickets for boat trips and cruise ships to Georgia, Abkhazia, Turkey at the box office or from distributors. Near the Seaport there are several remarkable modern and historical monuments and sculptures: a monument to the heroes of the film "The Diamond hand", a fountain with the goddess of navigation Isida, a rotunda, a flower clock, a decorative inscription "Sochi", graffiti by Jacques Yves Cousteau on the Buna embankment and others.
