The newspaper Akhali Taoba reports that this year Adjara sea resorts,
including Batumi, Kobuleti and Sarpi, will host 100 000-150 000 more
tourists than it has in the last few years, according to Adjaran
Health Minister Mamuka Nakashidze.
Data from the Department of Tourism and Resorts logs about 210 000
tourists sunning themselves in Adjara’s resorts in 2006. Most were
Armenians.
The minister added that the sea and drinking water is tested regularly.
"We have evidence that the water is not dangerous to the health,"
assured Nakashidze.
