July in Sochi is not a rainy month, but clear sunny weather is not always the case. In the subtropics, due to the high humidity and vapors, clouds and haze appear in the sky.
The nights at the resort are dark and warm + 21 ... + 23 ° С. The Caucasian night sky is very beautiful! If you move away from the illuminated streets, you can easily make out the stars and the Milky Way.

Ingale33: "Of the beaches, I liked the Lighthouse with the water park of the same name the most."
Guest: "Holidays in Sochi in July are specific, especially for the beaches. Well, this is really hard ... The beach consists of large pebbles, which children do not really like. Entering the sea is uncomfortable, underfoot there are large stones and a sharp drop in depths."
How to dress for the weather
Dress in such a way that you will not experience problems in the heat. Bring a swimsuit, sun hat, shorts, summer dresses, T-shirts, short sleeve shirts, and beach shoes for beach hikes and city walks.
Sports shoes, windbreaker and fleece are useful for trips to the mountains. Don't forget to protect yourself from the rain - an umbrella or raincoat! We advise you to bring everything you need from home. At the resort, everything is sold at a higher price, and the quality of beachwear is low, which is called "one-off".

The equator of summer in Sochi is sunny and calm weather. There are only 3 rainy days per month, during which there are warm short showers and about 45 mm of precipitation.
There is no need to worry about natural disasters! In July, storms are rare in Sochi. True, there are exceptions - on July 18-19, 2019, a powerful cyclone passed over the territory of Greater Sochi.
