SOCHI
The Russian Riviera on the Black Sea rose to global prominence after the 2014 Olympic Winter Games. In Sochi, you can go skiing in the morning and sailing or swimming in the afternoon on the same day. Situated along a 140 km stretch of the coast, the city offers so much more: Mountain climbing, hang-gliding, diving, aqua bikes, and much more.
