Our Recommendations:
Since we generally do a lot of walking at the sightseeing locations, we recommend that you come prepared accordingly and dress with the season in mind. (fleece/sweater, hat, sunglasses, raincoat, etc.) Prefer layered clothing from thin to thick (you may sweat while walking and feel cold when you stop). Make sure your shoes are suitable for walking (dirt, rock, mud, water, etc.). Ankle boots or sneakers would be good. Bring a small backpack (your hands should be free while walking). აუცილებლად bring spare clothing, socks, and shoes. If you have any medications, and if you are taking photos/videos, we remind you to bring enough film and spare batteries, and we are happy to host you on our tours.
Climate Conditions
It is generally a temperate climate type that can be rainy in all four seasons. Frontal and orographic precipitation are dominant. The presence of high mountains parallel to the coast in the region has created conditions for increased precipitation. Therefore, the annual and daily temperature difference in the region is not large. At the same time, winters are not very cold in the region, but they are rainy. Precipitation is mostly in the form of rain, and although snow and frost can be seen, fog is also frequently observed. Summers in the region are also mild. The average temperature of the hottest month does not exceed 22°C-24°C. The average temperature of the coldest month is always above 0°C. Although cold air masses from the northwest sometimes affect the region, this effect disappears as one moves eastward in the region. Depending on the geographical characteristics of the region, it shows variations in terms of temperature and precipitation. Precipitation occurs as the cool and humid air coming from the Black Sea rises along the North Anatolian Mountains. In the Eastern Black Sea Section, the greatest precipitation is seen due to the high elevation. The annual precipitation amount is on average 2000 mm (Rize 2300 mm). In the southern part of the North Anatolian Mountains, this value drops to 300 mm. The Central Black Sea Section is the least rainy section of the region due to the decrease in elevation. Here the annual precipitation amount is about 700 mm on average. In the Western Black Sea Section, as the elevation is lower than in the Eastern Black Sea Section, precipitation in this section is less than in the Eastern Black Sea Section. The annual precipitation amount is around 1200 mm on average. In the region as a whole, the annual precipitation amount can exceed 2000 mm, especially in the Eastern Black Sea Section, and can drop to 600 mm in the Central Black Sea Section.
