About this Place
One location, many impressions
Chakvi is a seaside town in Kobuleti municipality, about 15 km from Batumi, just north of the Green Cape. It sits between the mountain slopes and the Black Sea, wrapped in subtropical greenery. Chakvi is considered the cradle of tea growing in Georgia: at the end of the 19th century the Chinese specialist Lau Jin Jao planted the first commercial tea plantations here. Old tea gardens can still be seen on the slopes. Today Chakvi is a quiet resort with pebble beaches, sea views and family restaurants where you can taste Georgian cuisine and local wine.
