Outdoor walks and façade observations. Interior admission is not included.

The full story

Sochi Marine Station pairs a landmark tower and arcaded facade with a harbour frontage. The building is an architectural focal point for a central waterfront walk.

Stop here to see Sochi's resort-era waterfront architecture at its most theatrical. The tower and arcades reward a look from more than one angle, while the harbour setting explains why the building stands here. Make it a short exterior stop on a central walk; any boat trip or interior use is a separate decision with its own arrangements.

  • Look at the landmark tower, arcades, and harbour frontage.
  • The tower and arcades frame the harbour frontage.

View the tower and arcades from the public harbour frontage; check separately for any boat trip.
