Batumi beach

Stretching along the entire coast of the bay, the beach strip in Batumi extends from the bustling Batumi Sea Port to the vibrant Batumi International Airport. This picturesque expanse encompasses both the popular, beautifully landscaped areas in the city's heart and the more tranquil, secluded spots on the periphery, offering minimal infrastructure for a serene escape. Spanning over 10 kilometers, the beach varies in width from a generous 30 to 50 meters, inviting visitors to bask in its vastness.

Beach description

Welcome to Batumi Beach , a picturesque destination composed of nine distinct beaches, grouped into four main categories: central, suburban, new, and wild. Each beach offers a unique experience, from the bustling, well-equipped shores to the serene, untouched sands.

• Central City Beach: Nestled in the Old Boulevard region and framed by palm trees, this beach is the quintessential spot for beachgoers within the city limits. A hive of activity, it boasts a plethora of entertainment options both on its territory and nearby. Cyclists will appreciate the bike path that runs along the shoreline. By day, the warm sea with its gentle slope and safe rocky bottom beckons families and individuals alike, while the clean shingle coast and protective breakwaters ensure a comfortable and secure environment. As the sun sets, the vibrant nightlife takes over, with late-night eateries, clubs, and casinos drawing in the youth for unforgettable parties and discos.
• New Boulevard Beach: Situated away from the city center, this beach offers a tranquil retreat. It becomes a hub of activity only during peak season, attracting those seeking respite from the central beach's hustle and bustle. Ideal for leisurely strolls or relaxed lounging rather than swimming, due to its steeper descent into the sea. Despite the occasionally murky waters of Batumi Bay, the beach's allure is undeniable, with attractions such as a musical fountain, impressive sculptures, and vibrant flower beds. Accessible by public transport or car, it's a gem worth exploring.
• Suburban Beach: Close to the Opera House, this beach is a popular choice for tourists staying in the vicinity. Its long and narrow stretch, no more than 20 meters wide, is accompanied by the sounds of the nearby highway. The shingly surface and gentle slope to the water are typical here, though the infrastructure is less developed. Reachable by city bus or minibus, it offers a more local and authentic beach experience.
• Seaside Park Outskirts Beach: For those seeking solitude, this beach on the edge of Seaside Park is Batumi's best-kept secret. Even during the high season, it remains relatively undisturbed. The large shingle can be challenging for sea entry, and the lack of infrastructure adds to its untouched charm. The water may be less clear due to nearby rivers, and the proximity to the airport means occasional overhead plane sounds. Access is possible via taxi or town bus, making it an adventure for the intrepid traveler.

All of Batumi's beaches are open to the public free of charge, inviting everyone to enjoy their natural beauty and diverse offerings.

When is the best time to go?

The best time to visit Georgia for a beach vacation is typically during the late spring to early fall months, when the weather is warm and conducive to spending time on the coast. Here's a breakdown of the optimal periods:

• Late Spring (May to June) : This is a great time to enjoy the beaches of Georgia as the temperatures are comfortable, and the summer crowds have not yet arrived. The water may still be a bit cool in May, but by June it warms up nicely.
• Summer (July to August) : Summer is the peak season for beachgoers. The weather is hot and sunny, perfect for swimming and sunbathing. However, be prepared for larger crowds and higher accommodation prices.
• Early Fall (September to October) : This is an ideal time for those looking to avoid the crowds but still enjoy warm weather. The ocean remains warm enough for swimming, especially in early September, and the humidity begins to drop off.

Regardless of the time you choose, Georgia's beaches offer a delightful escape with their charming coastal towns, delicious seafood, and beautiful natural scenery. Just remember to check the local weather and water conditions before planning your trip.

One person dead and six missing after superyacht with 22 on board is sunk by tornado off coast of Italy

British tech tycoon Mike Lynch is among those unaccounted for after the ship was battered by a tornado off the coast of Palermo in the early hours of Monday morning.

Sunday 25 August 2024 08:46, UK

A man has died and six people are missing after a UK-flagged superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily in a tornado - with a prominent British businessman among those unaccounted for.

Technology tycoon Mike Lynch owned the 56-metre vessel (183ft), named Bayesian.

Mr Lynch, known as the "British Bill Gates", has been in the headlines in recent months over a high-profile fraud case.

In June, he was cleared of all charges by a US jury related to the sale of his software company Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard in 2011.

Mr Lynch's 18-year-old daughter Hannah is among those missing after his yacht sank, local media reports.

Follow live updates: People missing after superyacht sinks

Mr Lynch's wife Angela Bacares is confirmed to be among the 15 people who were rescued after the British-flagged yacht capsized at around 4.30am local time (3.30am UK time) on Monday.

One body has also been recovered, after being found close to the vessel, according to local media.

The boat was hit by a tornado over the water, known as a waterspout, that struck where the yacht had been anchored during the storm.

Police divers have been trying to reach the hull of the ship, which is resting at a depth of 50 metres (163 feet) off Porticello, near Palermo.

During the rescue effort, divers saw "corpses through the portholes" of the wreck, Salvo Cocina, the head of the Civil Protection of Sicily, said.

“They were in the wrong place at the wrong time,” he added.

The incident comes days after Stephen Chamberlain, Mr Lynch's co-accused in the fraud trial, died in a car collision in Stretham, Cambridgeshire.

Mr Chamberlain's lawyer said he was out running on Saturday when he was hit by a car.

Most on board yacht thought to be British

The boat had 12 passengers and a crew of 10 people. Four of the missing passengers are British and two are American, Italian news website la Reppublica reports.

Most of those on board were reported to be from Britain - including a mother and one-year-old daughter who are among those rescued.

Speaking to the Giornale Di Sicilia newspaper, Charlotte Golunski said: "For two seconds I lost my baby in the sea, then I immediately hugged her again amid the fury of the waves.

"I held her tightly, close to me, while the sea was stormy. Many were screaming. Luckily, the lifeboat inflated and 11 of us managed to get on board."

Ms Golunski was reportedly given stitches for a chest injury following the ordeal. The father of the child also survived, Mr Cocina said.

Eight of the 15 people rescued and taken ashore at Porticello were taken to hospital, while the others were taken to a hotel.

The Italian coast guard said the boat had passengers from Britain, the US, and Canada.

Meanwhile, multiple Italian news outlets reported that people on the boat were from Britain, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, and Ireland.

British-French citizens were also among those on the superyacht, according to reports.

'I saw it sinking with my own eyes'

Pietro Asciutto, a fisherman from Porticello who witnessed the storm, told local media: "I was at home when the tornado hit. I immediately closed all the windows. Then I saw the boat, it had only one mast, it was very big. I saw it suddenly sink."

He added: "I think the whirlwind came from Porticello... shortly afterwards I went down to Santa Nicolicchia Bay to get a better look at what was happening.

"The boat was still floating, then all of a sudden it disappeared. I saw it sinking with my own eyes."

Fabio Cefalu, another local fisherman, called rescue services after spotting the wrecked boat off Porticello.

He said: "Around 3.55am we witnessed the whirlwind. After a quarter of an hour, we saw a flare 500 metres away from the dock.

"Around 4:35am we went out to sea for the rescue, however, we only saw the remains of the boat floating. There were no men in the sea. So we immediately called the harbour master's office."

A spokesman for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) said: "We are in contact with the local authorities following an incident in Sicily, and stand ready to provide consular support to British nationals affected."

Camper and Nicholsons, which provided yacht management services for the Bayesian, has confirmed the vessel sank at around 4.30am local time.

The company said in a statement: "The Italian coast guard is leading search and rescue operations, and has safely recovered 15 individuals. Efforts to locate the seven missing persons continue.

"Our priority is assisting with the ongoing search and providing all necessary support to the rescued passengers and crew."

Online charter sites listed the Bayesian as available for rent for up to €195,000 (about £166,339) a week.

• Superyacht sinking

Did Bayesian superyacht’s 237ft mast cause it to sink?

B ayesian’s 237ft metal mast may have played a part in the sinking of the superyacht off the coast of Sicily , experts have suggested.

The yacht, named after the mathematical theory Mike Lynch used to make his millions in the tech industry, foundered in the small hours of Monday morning.

Key among potential reasons for the loss of the vessel will be its most striking feature – the aluminium mast.

Four British personnel from the Marine Accident Investigation Branch are on their way to Palermo to carry out a preliminary assessment.

There are also theories that hot overnight temperatures of 27C (80C) could have prompted passengers to leave portholes and windows open – hastening the sinking when the high winds hit.

Launched in 2008 by Perini Navi, Bayesian is one of the 50 largest sailing yachts in the world and her mammoth mast supported a total sail area of almost 32,000 sq ft.

Bayesian had the tallest aluminium mast in the world when it first took to the seas under her former name Salute. The record was overtaken last year when Jeff Bezos, the Amazon billionaire launched his yacht, Koru.

Koru’s masts stretch to 278ft tall according to Boat International magazine.

Tom Sharpe, a former Royal Navy commander and warship captain, said initial reports from survivors and witnesses suggested “that the weather was sufficiently violent to cause her to capsize at anchor”.

Weather reports from Palermo airport, 12 miles west of the yacht, suggest that at about 4am, winds switched from a gentle south-westerly breeze to gusts of 40mph, with temperatures dropping.

Local newspapers have described the weather as a tornado and a waterspout, which is a tornado above water.

The pressure of high winds on the mast could have helped tip the boat over in rough seas, experts have suggested.

Mr Sharpe said capsizing seemed “unlikely” to him given the Bayesian’s size “and that boats like that are designed to survive poor weather – unless something failed at the same time like a valve that let water in and made the whole boat unstable”.

He said it was more likely that the Bayesian had “dragged anchor”. Anchors are designed to lodge on rocks on the seabed, but if the seabed is too soft, or weather is so bad that the anchor is dislodged, then a boat can drag its anchor and drift.

If a boat drifts into an obstruction such as a rock or another boat, this can damage the boat by tearing a hole in its side leading to sinking, Mr Sharpe suggested.

The sea bed off Porticello, the Silician harbour nearest to where Bayesian was moored for the night, consists of a mixture of rocky and muddy areas, according to nautical charts reviewed by The Telegraph.

This means the yacht could have dragged anchor if it had been lowered into a soft, muddy patch of seabed.

A captain of another boat anchored nearby said his vessel was hit by abnormally strong winds on Monday morning.

Karsten Borner said the Sir Robert BP was battered by strong gusts in the early hours of the morning but he managed to stabilise the vessel while anchored by using the engine.

He said as they were doing this, they noticed the Bayesian nearby and manoeuvred to avoid hitting it.

“We managed to keep the ship in position, and after the storm was over, we noticed that the ship behind us was gone,” said Capt Borner.

Mr Sharpe said: “From a seamanship point of view, the other boat (Sir Robert BP) coming up on her main engines and using those to keep position around [her own] anchor is what you should do. Yacht anchors are often not that robust and that is the best way to avoid putting too much strain on it and/or dragging.”

An alternative theory is that the weight of the mast led the Bayesian to capsize.

A yacht industry source told The Times that the vessel sank after the weight of her mast took the hull beyond its “down-flooding angle” – the point at which a boat cannot right itself after swinging at a steep angle – meaning water rushed over the sides into the interior.

“The wind toppled the mast, which fell over the side, causing the boat to heel over and take on water, capsize and sink very quickly,” the source said.

This can occur whether the mast snapped off or not.

Sam Jefferson, editor of Sailing Today, told The Telegraph: “She has a very tall, aluminium mast – I believe it is the second tallest aluminium mast in the world – and that would not have helped.

“Many yachts with big masts have carbon masts instead of aluminium as these save on weight and improve stability and performance.

“Stability was obviously the problem in the extremely strong winds she was experiencing and I’d assume the boat was pinned on its side and could not right before it filled up with water.”

Another superyacht expert who asked not to be named told The Telegraph that the mast could have pulled the Bayesian over into capsizing, although he expressed some scepticism, saying sailing yachts are designed to prevent that from happening.

He said the anchor-dragging theory was also a plausible explanation for why the Bayesian sank.

Typically, crews try to anchor in safe spots that are sheltered away from the wind, they said.

The Bayesian was moored just off Porticello, a few miles east of Palermo. Prevailing winds from the north-east may have robbed the vessel of the shelter offered by the Sicilian coast, which lay to the west.

Dr Lynch was reportedly aboard the vessel. His wife, Angela Bacares, is among those rescued but six others, including four Britons, are still missing.

One person, reportedly the yacht’s chef, died in the incident and his body was recovered by rescuers.

The Bayesian’s last refit was in 2020.

The vessel was listed for rent for up to €195,000 (£166,000) a week, according to online charter websites.

The interior featured six cabins – one master, three doubles and two twin rooms – for up to a dozen guests, with the crew occupying separate quarters.

Fitted out in a Japanese style, the interior was styled by the Remi Tessler design house.

Under her former name Salute, the yacht won the Best Exterior prize at the World Superyacht Awards in 2009, and the Best Interior at the International Superyacht Society Awards in 2008.

A coastguard statement issued on Monday morning said the missing passengers were of “British, American and Canadian nationality”.

Camper & Nicholsons, managers of the Bayesian, confirmed the vessel sank at about 4.30am following “severe weather”.

The Italian Coast Guard is leading search and rescue operations, and said on Monday it had safely recovered 15 individuals.

Dubai’s Coastal Elegance: Your Guide to Exclusive Yacht Rentals

By Space Coast Daily  //  August 23, 2024

Yacht charter has long been synonymous with luxury. With this watercraft’s help, you can embark on an incredible journey along the amazing waters of Dubai’s coastline.

You can enjoy the luxurious amenities on the boat. But to make your holiday successful and leave only positive impressions, you must find the best yacht rental company and choose the right vessel. To make planning an unforgettable holiday much easier, we have compiled a small guide to all the essentials. We have highlighted what matters.

How to choose the right yacht for your trip

There are several important factors to consider when choosing the right watercraft:

• The size and layout of the yacht – this largely depends on the number of people who will be on board, whether a banquet is planned on the deck, dancing, etc;
• Destination – where exactly you are going to go on the yacht;
• The budget for the charter;
• Available facilities on board and additional services (catering, spa, etc.).

Take into account the fact that the size of the yacht largely affects the rental price, the set of amenities on board, and the vessel’s overall smoothness. In addition, the number of people, age, and experience level of the crew also depends on the size of the water transport. All this affects the quality of the services provided.

Tips for those who are renting a yacht for the first time

For most first-timers, chartering a yacht can seem intimidating but exciting. There are many things to consider, from the size of the ideal yacht and the trip’s location to legal issues and additional costs.

Preparing properly is worthwhile to have an unforgettable travelling experience. It means sorting out many things, from what you need for your trip to knowing the etiquette on board and how to use your time efficiently when travelling on the water.

How to properly prepare for a yacht trip

Preparing yourself first is a good idea before embarking on a luxury yacht trip in Dubai. In this case, you need to think about the following aspects:

• Finding a suitable destination;
• Choosing a reliable yacht charter company that provides a wide range of vessels and optimal conditions for travelling;
• Checking the weather forecast before travelling.

In addition, it is necessary to prepare a package of all necessary documents in advance so that no questions arise during the trip: passport, visa, bareboat certification (if you are going to operate the vessel on the water by yourself), and other papers.

Rules of onboard etiquette

If you will be on board a rented vessel for a long time, you should learn some rules of etiquette in advance. You should pay attention to them if you want to spend a pleasant time on a luxury yacht. In particular, you should know the following rules:

• Always have a tip for the crew that will serve you during the journey.
• Be sure to observe the ‘barefoot rule’ on board. The fact is that you can only enter the yacht with clean shoes or take off your shoes. You cannot walk on deck in black-soled shoes or heels, as they will leave marks. Walking around the yacht completely barefoot is dangerous, as you can injure your feet on protruding parts.

It would help if you also treated the boat’s property and equipment with respect. You should take care of them just as you would your belongings. The equipment and property of a rented yacht are quite expensive and should be handled responsibly and with care.

How to get the most out of your holiday on a charter yacht

You should balance activity and relaxation to make your yacht charter holiday an exceptionally positive experience. Be sure to choose the type of yacht that will offer all the amenities and services matching your interests and preferences. Whether you like to be active or relaxed, you will be able to find the perfect activity to make your time on a yacht charter as enjoyable as possible. You can have a great time on a yacht in several ways:

• Sunbathing for a velvety tan;
• Water skiing;
• Sup-surfing;
• Diving, and much more.

The possibilities are numerous and you can easily fulfil them on board your yacht charter. You need to worry about having the right equipment in advance.

Conclusions

In conclusion, a yacht charter is the best way to ensure a luxurious trip. This leisure option perfectly combines incredible experiences, luxury and a sense of complete freedom in the open waters of Dubai. If you want everything to go right, it’s worth choosing the right type of vessel, following safety rules on board and planning your holiday from the destination to how you’ll spend your time on board.
