Boat
Ride Tour
This is
what you will see on your ride to Arcadia beach:
- To the
North and west, across the sea, you can see the
beaches of Luzanovka
Beach (Пляж Лунзановка)
- On a
clear day, looking out at the other side of the
Black Sea, a person can see the high rises of the
Kotovsky district, 12 kilometers (7.4 miles) northeast
of the city center. The Kotovsky district was built
in the 1970's. Over 70,000 Odessites now live there.
It is named after G. Kotovsky, a Soviet revolutionary
leader of a cavalry brigade who entered the city
from this area, and helped crush the whites.
- A few
minutes ride and you can see the Unknown
solider obelisk in Shevchenko
Park (Парк Шевченко)
- Below
Shevchenko Park (Парк Шевченко) is the white sandy
beaches of Lanzjeron
Beach (Пляж Ланжерон)
- Next
is the Otrada
beach, which is easy to recognize by the cable
cars.
- To the
south of Otrada beach is the yacht
club, recognized by the large ugly concrete
barriers.
- Beyond
the trees, parallel from Otrada to a portion of
Arcadia beach is Frantsuzsky Blvd. (Французский
Бульвар)
- Before
the land above these beaches was ugly brown cliffs.
It is hard to imagine that Odessa was once plateaus
with almost no trees. Since 1967, these cliffs have
thousands of implanted trees growing on them. These
trees stretch for over 10 kilometers, right to the
cape of Bolshoy Fountain. This area was renamed
Yubileyny park.
- South
of the newest
beach Delfin, founded in 1968
- On the long plateau above the beach are Chkalov
and Magnolia sanatoriums with their two high
rises, and buildings of the Rossiya
(Russia)and Ukraina sanatoriums
- A little further along is the Yunost
hotel
- The boat then enters Arcadia beach behind Itaka
club.
