Odesa beaches: where is it safe to swim?

Despite the war, the 2025 beach season in Odesa is officially underway. Local authorities have identified 32 safe swimming areas: 30 of them are located directly in Odesa, and two more are in Chornomorsk and Primorsky in the Izmail district.

Each of these locations has been thoroughly checked for:

● the availability of shelters nearby;

● the absence of mine hazards on land and in the water;

● the readiness of rescue services to respond in case of danger.

The authorities strongly urge people to vacation only on officially authorized beaches. This is a matter of safety: in August of this year, three people died after stepping on explosive devices in prohibited swimming areas.
