Monument to an Unknown Sailor: A Tribute to Maritime Legacy

Getting There

• Car

  If you are traveling by car, head towards Prymorskyi District in Odesa. From the city center, take Hretska Street and continue onto Pirogov Street. Follow the signs for the port area, and keep driving until you reach the coast. The Monument to an Unknown Sailor is located at the edge of the park near the coastline, adjacent to the Potemkin Stairs and the Odesa Sea Port. There is limited street parking available, so be prepared to find a spot nearby. Note that parking may incur fees depending on the area.

• Public Transportation

  Using public transportation, you can take the tram or bus to the city center. For trams, look for routes that stop at 'Derybasivska Street' or 'Primorsky Boulevard'. From there, it is a 15-20 minute walk down to the waterfront area. Alternatively, you can take bus number 148 or 198 from the city center directly towards the 'Primorsky Boulevard' stop. After getting off, walk towards the coastline, and you will see the Monument to an Unknown Sailor located near the sea. Public transportation costs around 8 UAH per trip.

• Taxi

  For a more convenient option, consider taking a taxi. You can use ride-sharing apps like Bolt or Uber, or simply hail a taxi from the street. The ride from the city center to the Monument to an Unknown Sailor typically costs between 100-150 UAH, depending on traffic conditions. The taxi will drop you off at the monument, making it easy to access.
