Inal Bay is a resort area near the village of Dzhubga. It is not a city like Dzhubga or neighboring Arkhipo-Osipovka. Even in Soviet times, sanatoriums began to be built here, which were later replaced by private hotels. There are several dozen of them (about a hundred), which is significantly more than in Dzhubga itself. All of them are located on a high Bank and you need to go down to the beach by long stairs.

Many recreation centers are outdated, and they are intended for the low price segment, but there are also modern hotels. People mostly eat at their hotels, so there are not many cafes and restaurants in Inal Bay.

The main attraction of Inal Bay, quite naturally, is a very large beach, as well as a clean and calm sea. The length of the beach is several kilometers, so that the crowding of tourists here is out of the question. There is enough space for everyone.

As on the entire Caucasian coast of the Black sea, the beach in Inal Bay is pebbly, but the pebbles are small. This pebble was brought here specifically for more comfortable bathing. The depth increases gradually, so this place is convenient for families with children.

In the Central part of the beach, at the foot of the slope, there are two small reservoirs filled with water saturated with blue clay. Access to these reservoirs is free. It is believed that this clay has a healing and rejuvenating effect on the skin and the body as a whole, so there are always a lot of people here.

As for amusement parks, or some similar infrastructure, it is not here. For this you need to go to Dzhubga or Arkhipo-Osipovka. The closest natural attractions to Inal Bay are the Gebius waterfalls on the Teshebs river and the Colonel waterfalls on the Stony river.

The entrance to the Gebius falls is located on the M4 highway 10 kilometers from Inal Bay. The route to Polkovnichy waterfalls starts in the village of Polkovnichye, which is located 20 kilometers from Inal Bay. Excursions to Gelendzhik, Abrau-Durso and Novorossiysk are also very popular. On the East coast, you can go to the Kiselev Rock near Tuapse.
