Sea excursions in Gagra depart from the Central Beach, from the embankment in New Gagra near the Rotunda (new colonnade). Group tours on the boat run several times a day, starting at about 09:00 in the morning. Unfortunately, there is no fixed schedule — it changes every day depending on the number of people interested and the weather, so it is better to check the exact departure time with excursion distributors right on the embankment or on the city streets.

Tickets can be bought in two ways: directly on the boat before departure or in advance from excursion distributors (the price is the same everywhere). Payment is accepted in cash or by card transfer. Usually two standard group routes are offered:

  • A trip in the open sea along the coast — duration 1.5 hours, cost from 1500 rubles, children under 6 years old free.
  • A trip to Pitsunda and to Shlypra Island — duration 2.5 hours, cost from 2500 rubles, children under 6 years old free.

Keep in mind: the "island" of Shlypra is actually just a hard-to-reach shore in the Pitsundo-Myussersky Nature Reserve, which is not particularly interesting. If you just want to take a ride and see dolphins, take the short route along the coast.

You can also always rent a boat with a captain and go anywhere you wish or arrange sea fishing — this is an individual decision, and you agree on the departure time directly with the captain.
