Things to do in Adjara

Subtropical Adjara rises straight from the palm-lined beaches of Batumi into the mist-forested ridges of the Lesser Caucasus — a green, humid corner where the Black Sea meets rainforest and waterfalls in the space of a short drive. It is Georgia's coast-and-jungle region, and a warm-weather alternative to the high mountains.
