In 2005, drinking water in Gelendzhik was recognized as one of the best in the Kuban and throughout Russia. But this is the official version, and old. Now the quality of the water here is not so high, the locals complain about the smack of bleach, the abundance of lime impurities, many buy bottled water for drinking.

However, you can wash and brush your teeth with ordinary, unboiled tap water. If it is not swallowed during washing, then it will not harm the health. For babies, it may be worthwhile to boil water, even for cleaning your teeth, just in case. Or give a bottle: some Gelendzhik vodka categorically does not like the taste.

Well, adults who do not have problems with the gastrointestinal tract, may well do without this procedure. For cooking and drinking water it will be necessary to boil, even if the tourists stopped in the private sector where the water is well.
