About this Place
One location, many impressions
The Convent of St John the Theologian in Sarpi stands on a hill above the village of Sarpi, with the Black Sea, the coastline and the Georgia–Turkey border all in view at once. The convent courtyard has a quiet, well-kept garden and views out over the sea. It is an active convent, so women need a headscarf and a skirt to enter the church, and men long trousers. Below are St Andrew's waterfall and Sarpi beach.
