Lazarevskoye is the very first resort on the Black Sea where I ended up. It happened a long time ago in childhood, about 3 years ago. We went there several times and I looked forward to each trip with bated breath. Perhaps that is why I have warm feelings for this village. Otherwise, it is quite ordinary, crowded in season, with a railway near the beach. If you like to relax in quieter places, then it is better to rent housing in neighboring villages. Sights can be visited no matter where you live.
Well, if you do go to Lazarevskoye, then look at my post - A selection of inexpensive hotels with the best ratings and reviews. It’s better to book everything in advance, especially during the season, otherwise you won’t find what you want on site.

On the way back, the trail passes through tea plantations and gardens. The highway goes down to the sea.
Waterfall "Tears of Laura"
The path to the waterfall begins at the village of Makopse and goes along the bank of the river with the same name. The waterfall itself is located in the gorge. The path to it is equipped with railings and swing bridges. The southern slope of the gorge is rocky and can crumble, so be especially careful when walking along it.
A foreign ship was wrecked on these shores. Only one girl named Laura managed to survive, who was sheltered and raised by local residents. She grew up to be a girl of rare beauty. A guy named Kaymet from a neighboring village fell in love with Laura. They went to the prince for a blessing for marriage, but the prince himself wanted to take the beauty as his wife. The young people fled, but were caught. Laura threw herself off a cliff, preferring death to a wedding with her unloved. Kaymet, having learned about her death, also crashed against the rocks. The mountains, which “saw” all this, “teared” the waterfall.
It is better to go after rain, as the waterfall dries up in dry weather. But the water continues to drip from the rocks and really resembles tears. You can swim under the “Tears of Laura” (height - 16 meters).
Mamedovo Gorge
How to get there: From Lazarevskoye in the direction of Tuapse, go 3 kilometers to the sign “Mamedovo Gorge”. From there it is 2 kilometers to the site on the left of the road. Further along the forest path to the Kuapse River. You can leave your car here and follow the dirt path up from the Black Sea Highway to the waterfall
The waterfall splits into two streams that resemble mustaches. Hence the name “Mamed’s Mustache”. Nearby there is a blockage of stones forming a bathtub. You can swim in it.
The bottom of the gorge is damp, wear comfortable waterproof shoes. It is worth taking water and a “snack” with you, since the local cafe does not have good cuisine and low prices.
A local legend tells about the elder Mamed, who saved the inhabitants of his village from their enemies. The invaders landed on the shore when all the men were at a wedding in a neighboring village. The women and children hid their goods and livestock, and they themselves took refuge in the gorge. The enemies, having burst into the village, found only the old man and his grandson. They ordered Mamed to hand over his fellow villagers under pain of torture. The grandfather pretended to agree to their terms. Seizing the moment, he pushed his grandson away so that he could escape, and he rushed at the leader and killed him. The conquerors immediately dealt with Mamed, cutting off his head.
