Yakutsk city authorities have decided to shut down their public beach area
In Yakutsk, the Siberian city located in a continuous permafrost zone, the swimming season has come to an end as of August 12th, 2025. The Yakutsk District Administration announced the closure of the city beach, but the landscaped part of the embankment remains accessible for walks, runs, and sports activities.
The reasons for the swimming season closure were not specified in the announcement. Moreover, no information was provided about the reopening of the city beach after the closure. Previously, a review of the updated city beach in Yakutsk was published, but recent search results do not cover details about any renovations, reopening plans, or modifications for 2025.
Despite the closure of the city beach, the views from the landscaped part of the embankment can still be enjoyed, and the fresh air can be savoured. As always, the city's residents and visitors can take advantage of the open spaces for leisurely walks and active sports.
For those seeking precise and updated information about the Yakutsk city beach's status for 2025, local municipal announcements or official Yakutsk city websites would be the best sources to consult. The harsh climate in Yakutsk often poses challenges in maintaining open water recreational facilities, making beach closures for swimming seasons not uncommon. However, no publicly documented updates or planned improvements for the Yakutsk city beach in 2025 are currently noted.

Despite the swimming season ending, home-and-garden spaces along the embankment offer opportunities for leisurely pursuits and outdoor-living activities.
