Where in Vladivostok you can swim and sunbathe. Buses from the railway station (Vladivostok) to Shamora Bus schedule Emar Gogol

Buses and shuttles are popular among both tourists and Russian residents. This type of transport is suitable for those who travel alone or as a couple, for young people who know their way around the country and know the language, as well as for those who need to reduce their vacation budget.

Advantages of buses and shuttles over other types of public transport

Typically the cheapest option. Travel by bus is either comparable to other group modes of transport (for example, the train), or is 5–15% cheaper than any alternative.

Drive to a stop where you can easily get to the desired location. And in the case of a tourist shuttle, perhaps even to the hotel. Regular buses from major transport hubs Russians leave for popular destinations and pass through central areas surrounding towns and resort areas. For example, from the stop where a bus takes a tourist in Shamor, it will be possible to get to any desired place with a maximum of one more transfer. Kiwitaxi tourist shuttles in a number of destinations transport tourists to vacation spots, rather than dropping them off in the city center.

Mini-excursion while on the road. The bus does not travel quickly and has stops. Some tourist buses and shuttles have attendants who brighten up the trip by telling you about the sights.

Disadvantages of buses compared to other types of public transport

Crowded during peak hours. Since buses are the most affordable option, they are used by most tourists who are not willing to spend money on a taxi. You may have to travel with your luggage on your lap or even standing. Group shuttles fill up evenly and running out of seats is almost impossible, however luggage space may be a problem.

There may be no tickets. For the same reason - buses in Shamora are popular, so tickets for them need to be purchased in advance, without expecting to find them on the spot.

A pressing question for any tourist: which transport is more convenient to travel around Vladivostok? Local residents prefer to overcome the hilly urban terrain by car. Depending on their capabilities and preferences, city guests can rent a car, take a taxi or use public transport.

Car rental

Prices for renting a car, depending on its brand, vary significantly: a compact Toyota Vitz will cost a thousand rubles a day, 1,500 rubles. per day for the economical Toyota Prius and about 9,000 thousand for the executive Toyota Land Cruiser 200. Cars can be either left- or right-hand drive. But before you get behind the wheel of a rented car in Vladivostok, get to know a little about the features of public transport and local routes.

Bus

The main type of passenger transport in Vladivostok are buses and minibuses. There are about a hundred city routes in total. The fare within the city is 23 rubles. On the website bus125.ru you can track the operation of Vladivostok buses in real time, look at route maps and find out when the next bus will arrive at your desired stop. Some of the most popular routes are those that connect the city center with residential neighborhoods. For example, from the Second River to the center there are buses No. 23, 40, 59, 60, 98ts. Past the Lugovaya and Balyaeva districts, routes No. 7t, 24, 31, 49, 54, 55 go to the center. You can drive along the Golden Bridge if you take route No. 1 (goes through the Second River and the 100th Anniversary of Vladivostok Avenue), 15 and 15k (from the shopping center "Izumrud"). Routes No. 15, 77e (Bus Station - FEFU), 74 (Balyaeva - FEFU), 76 (Tikhaya Bay - FEFU) run across Russky Island across the cable-stayed bridge.

If you want to go out of town - to a sanatorium, to the beaches of the Amur Bay or to the Botanical Garden, you can also use city buses: No. 102 (Semenovskaya - Ugolnaya), 103 (Lugovaya - 10th km), 104 (Tikhaya Bay - 10- th km), 105 (Semyonovskaya - 10th km), 106 (Railway Station - Artem State District Power Plant), 107 (Railway Station - Airport). To get to the sandy beaches of Shamora (Lazurnaya Bay), you need to take route No. 28e (Semyonovskaya - Emar) or 14k (a minibus leaves every 2 hours from the Gogol stop).

Trolleybus

Such an environmentally friendly form of transport as the trolleybus is present in Vladivostok, but in limited quantities - only two routes in the Second River area. You can take a trolleybus from the bus station to the clinical hospital and from the bus station to the Varyag stop. The fare is 14 rubles.

Electric train

You can also get around the city by train. From the Second River (Bus Station) to the center of Vladivostok (Railway Station) the Aeroexpress takes you past all the traffic jams in just fifteen minutes. True, he only walks five times a day. Ticket price is 26 rubles. There are also trains that go to the suburbs or neighboring cities and have stops within Vladivostok: Cape Churkin, Lugovaya, 3rd Rabochaya, Railway Station, 1st Rechka, 2nd Rechka, Sedanka, Okeanskaya. Travel around the city - 21 rubles.

Funicular

For more than fifty years, a funicular has been operating in Vladivostok. Two trailers that run up and down the slope of the Orlina Hill are loved not only by local residents, but also by tourists. The length of the route is about 180 meters, the height difference between the lower and upper platforms is 70 meters. The transport covers this distance in two minutes. At this time, from the windows of the trailer you can admire the view of the city center and the Golden Horn Bay. The cost of the funicular ride is 12 rubles.

Taxi

from 200 rub.

There are about ninety taxi services in Vladivostok. The most popular of them are Maxim, Yandex.Taxi, Gett, First City, Primtaxi, People's Taxi, etc. The average cost of a trip around the city is 200 rubles. Also, many citizens use the InDriver mobile application to order a car. This is a service of independent drivers, where you can set the price yourself and choose a driver from those who responded to your order. As a rule, the fare for such a popular taxi is lower than for a regular one.

Lazurnaya Bay is located on the shores of the Ussuri Bay, 25 kilometers from the center of Vladivostok. More popular historical name this place is Shamora. Everyone in Vladivostok knows this word

Sandy beach of Shamora

Most popular beach In Primorsky Krai, there is a long and wide sand spit, you can swim. During the hot season mid-July to mid-September traffic jams and a lot of people on the beach. It can be very hot during the day. I like to come to Shamora in the morning at 10 o’clock or in the evening at 7. There are no traffic jams, not many people and not hot.

The sandy beach is wide and long, great for swimming. The entry into the water is gentle, the bottom is sandy. There are usually small waves that do not interfere with swimming. The length of the beach is about 2 km, the bay is divided into 3 parts by streams.

Conventionally, there are 3 beaches:

  1. First beach- from the central entrance to the first stream and bridge. The most civilized section of Shamora. Near the entrance there is a small illuminated embankment and a supermarket, mini-market, Cruise and Flying Fish restaurants. As well as several recreation centers.
  2. On second beach sand and water are the same. The pedestrian street is surrounded on both sides by kebab shops.
  3. Third Beach- after the second stream at the very end of the bay. There are several recreation centers.

Cafes and restaurants

Street with kebab shops

Small kebab shops gradually grew into cafes and restaurants and formed a whole street about 2 km long. For many local residents there is a favorite kebab shop where people stop on the way to eat or buy fresh flatbread. Almost all the cafes serve Armenian cuisine: kebabs, khychin, flatbread, etc. I like flatbread or khychin with tea. You can highlight the beautiful cafe of Armenian cuisine “At the Rook” with a fountain and gazebos,

Restaurants

There are several restaurants with sea views on Shamora:

  • Cruise – Large restaurant with terrace and marine theme. Located on the first beach at the entrance
  • Chaikhona Cotton – Uzbek and Georgian cuisine
  • Saloon Cinema country style restaurant and motel

Where to stay - hotels and recreation centers in Shamora

Summer houses on the beach and bases nearby

Most recreation centers are small summer houses. There are several places to stay in hotel style rooms. When looking for housing remotely, pay attention to where the house is located, on the Shamora beach itself (Lazurnaya Bay) or in other bays in the neighborhood. Please note that Shamora beach itself is a noisy and crowded place. If you are only interested in the sea, then you don’t have to live on this beach. Rent a house usually costs from 3000r. day depending on size.
