Gennadi Beach: Weather Today

📅 Wednesday, July 29, 2026
Today is a challenging day for the beach due to intense heat and strong, blustery winds that will likely make lounging on the sand quite uncomfortable. While the clear skies and abundance of sunshine are ideal for tanning, the maximum air temperature of 38.9 °C is extremely high, so finding shade is essential to avoid heat exhaustion. With a UV Index of 8.05, strong sun protection is mandatory. The sea temperature is 25.9 °C, making the water refreshing, though you should be prepared for noticeable wave activity. The steady wind and occasional stronger blasts will keep the surface choppy, so please stay alert if you plan to enter the water. Overall, it is a day best suited for short dips rather than an extended stay on the shore.
