Batumi combines the unexpected: Art Nouveau European facades, Soviet seaside brutalism, modern glass towers, and subtropical palm boulevards. Most of the city's most interesting sights are outdoor and fully dog-accessible. The old town with its 19th-century buildings is a compact walking area with dogs welcome throughout.

💡 Quick Tips

1.The Ali and Nino kinetic sculpture (on the seafront boulevard) is one of the world's most romantic public artworks; it shows two lovers slowly merging into one form every night and dogs sit on the viewing area freely.
2.Piazza Batumi (the central square styled after an Italian piazza, surrounded by colourful facades) is fully pedestrianised and dog-friendly; the square cafes have outdoor seating with dogs welcome.
3.Sarpi border village (20 km south) is a fascinating afternoon trip: the Georgian-Turkish land border with its busy crossing traffic, traditional fishing boats, and the old watchtower are all walkable with a dog.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Batumi cable car dog-friendly?

The Batumi cable car (from the seafront to the Anuria hill, 260m altitude) has good sea views. Dogs in carriers are generally accepted. For large dogs, the hill is also reachable by a short walk from the old town; the summit park is fully dog-friendly.

Can we visit the Batumi Botanical Garden with a large dog?

Yes, the Botanical Garden (10 km north) has wide paved paths and accepts dogs on-leash throughout. The only restriction is the small train inside the garden (dogs in carrier only). A large dog walks all 111 hectares on-leash alongside the owner; the garden is scenic and manageable on foot in 2-3 hours.
