The village under the amusing name of Farm Betta, which is 45 km from Gelendzhik, appeared around 1890. In translation from the Adyghe language, "bate" means "humpbacked", because the very shape of the rock reminds a hump. This paradise is surrounded by orchards and vineyards. It smells of pine needles, and it's no wonder - on Betta Farm, the richest forests in the district, cypress groves, junipers and pines.

Those who worry that the beach will blow away towels and then have to chase an umbrella torn from the ground, worry there is nothing to worry about, as there is almost no wind in the village, this secluded corner is surrounded on all sides by mountains. The bottom here is rocky, there is a large number of underwater canyons in which you can easily find something interesting - for example, the Black Sea fogs everywhere.

If you are armed with a camera and you do not have enough panoramic images - then you need to go to the west, to Cape Chugovkopas. In sunny weather, you can see even the snow on the tops of the Caucasus.

And one more important detail for those who I saw in the movies how the sea glows at night, but I never saw it in reality: it's best to take tickets to Gelendzhik in August, because it is this month that the period of division of algae-nochesvetki, or noktlyuks, occurs. This beautiful and at the same time very vile seaweed glows in very different colors - and the light extends to everything from hands and oars to fishing nets.

According to one of the legends, if the Greeks knew in advance that Khutor Betta is such a seaweed, they would not even have thought of approaching the coast of Tavria. As always in this case, the ships landed right in the thickets of algae and lit up, alerting the whole coast of the night's sudden attack. The Greeks had to flee.

Also those who like to buy fragrant herbs are pleased with their choice: there is a wide choice. You can get there by car - this is the M4 highway, you need to turn right to the sea, before reaching Pshada.
