With just over a million people, Odessa is Ukraine’s fourth-largest city. Set in the country’s south along the Black Sea coast, Odessa was founded in the late 18th century as a Russian naval fortress. For many years in the mid-19th century, it was a free port, becoming home to a multinational populace. In 1905, it was the site of a major Russian Revolution uprising by crew members of the Battleship Potemkin. The nice old town area has a beautiful opera house, and the city has many great beaches.

It's got the cobbled street up to it, it has a band stand (where musicians actually play), and then there's treats for you if you look East, West, North or South. Now that's what I call a garden!

We bought two regular tickets online for the show. Cost: around 11€ per ticket. The show is nice. The trainers are talented, the animals (dolphins, seals) look healthy and are well trained. The show is about 45 minutes long. I really would recommend to buy the tickets a day before online, and just pick them up at the cash desk in the front of the dolphinarium, as we saw a lot of people couldn’t get in due to sold out shows. Check out page online is only in Ukrainian, but self explanatory as pictures are shown. The regular ticket for the show is the one for 300 UAH.

A massive city park which lies between Odessa's downtown center and the beach. Trails, waterfalls, a stadium, war monuments and so much more. There is much to see and escape from in this park. Walking through the park on the way to the beach is a tradition of Odessa.

Picturesque historic sights of the city. Beautiful and busy. Definitely gives you a feel of Odessa and the mix of its famous for: trade, bargain, sea fleet and sailors. Quite folkloric and yet majestic heart of the city.

Historic sight of Odessa famous for its night life. But there is also other nice things to do around it. Full of entertainment and people.

The city beach, with all the pluses and minuses that come with it. Tending to overcrowd, it pays to purchase a bed or chairs from the multitude of businesses claiming half the beach. It's generally 2-4 euros a day for a chair, and 10 euros for a bed. Prices could increase, but not dramatically. The beach itself is clean, despite the overcrowding in summer. The water is much clearer than one might expect from the Black Sea. Food and drinks are a plenty in surrounding kiosks, with cheap cider and beer ready to be consumed by anyone for 20-40 hyrivnia ( 1 euro <). Call out to the endless procession of fish mongers peddling their cucurooza, baklava, da da da. Calamariiiiiii. When you know you know.
