Photographers from Novini.LIVE observed the leisure activities of Odessa residents.
With temperatures hovering around +2°C and strong gusts of wind, hundreds of Odessa residents still made their way to the coast. The beaches of Arcadia became the most popular spots for strolls.
People walked with their children, took their dogs out, and even set up winter photo sessions against the backdrop of the vibrant sea.
Local cafes along the promenade received plenty of attention, as many stopped for hot coffee or tea to warm up after their walk.
We remind you that plans are underway in Odessa to build an inclusive sports ground and renovate the beach for people with disabilities at the 11th station of the Big Fountain. We also reported that pollution from oil in the Black Sea could lead to an ecological disaster that may affect people's health and could derail the tourist season in Odessa.
