The green microdistrict has good infrastructure, but the impression is spoiled by continuous construction projects. According to vacationers, Dagomys is being built up so quickly that in 10 years it will turn into a full-fledged city.

Ofra: "The sea greeted us with cleanliness and a half-empty beach. Clean and transparent! But soon tourists came in large numbers. Literally in the first week of July. Very intrusive guys with megaphones who offer trips on bananas, boats, and so on. Smells like gasoline."

Many tourists prefer to have fun in Sochi. Minibuses and buses to the city run at intervals of 15-20 minutes. It would seem that it is not difficult to get there, but during the high season, public transport is overcrowded. Young people are not bothered by this, but such trips are inconvenient for parents with small children and elderly tourists. Buses and minibuses do not run at night. From a late walk you have to take a taxi to Dagomys.
Evil Squidward: "The main plus is transport accessibility to the center of Sochi, which can be reached in 10 minutes by train, or by minibus in 25-30 minutes. You can go to Sochi every day for a walk, and return just as quickly by train."
Vacation with children
The main entertainment for young tourists is located near the waterfront of the resort. These are inflatable slides, attractions, carousels, the Underwater World game labyrinth, air hockey, a small 5D cinema and electric car rental. The nearest water park is located in the resort village of Loo.
Dashandra: "In general, I recommend this place for a relaxing holiday with children to those who want a clean sea, fresh mountain air and Kuban products. For those who want entertainment, there are many cafes, restaurants on the shore ... Well, all kinds of sea and land excursions ".
When is the best time to go
The beach season lasts from May to October. It is most comfortable to relax in June and September, when the sun is not so hot. In July and August, many people come to Dagomys.
