AMAZING Russian Beaches On The Pacific Ocean

Ever since I was a kid, I dreamt of visiting the regions of the world that were the farthest away from where I grew up. The region of Russia near the Pacific Ocean was one of them.

Which means I'm at 39/85. Still 46 to go! Hopefully a lifetime will be enough ⚠️
I spent so much time in my childhood and school years reading about the most remote regions of Russia. I'm ever so happy to have the chance now to travel in Russia and see with own eyes these places that I spent countless days reading about. Places like Khabarovsk and Vladivostok are definitely some examples. Especially Vladivostok - the infamous terminus of the transiberian line, a city thousands of kilometres from the country's capital, with which it shares the same people, same kind of architecture and general vibe.
Vladivostok is very close to China - Chinese tourists often board buses that can take them from Beijing to Vladivostok in less than a day. Korean tourists regularly flock Vladivostok as well - in an attempt to get a glance of Europe without having to travel by plane to the places that we, in the West, are more used to think of when we think of Europe (London, Paris, Prague...)

I consider myself blessed to be able to say that I have actually embarked on a journey like this which I dreamt about for years as a kid. And I feel even more blessed to be able to share this with all of you. Follow me on Instagram at @davelegenda for more cool pictures from this trip.

[@100amper]

David, you talk so cool emotionally - that we don’t have a single Russian blogger that talks about Russia like that) You’re like a clockwork orange)

[@giorgiobortolini]

Video molto bello ed interessante, complimenti! Un giorno piacerebbe anche a me visitare questi posti in Russia!

[@АндрейТерлецкий-ж5х]

Привет из Хабаровска!!! 😱🤘🔥🔥🔥

[@АндрейТерлецкий-ж5х]

The saddest result of your journey that you haven't get to the Pacific Ocean. It was the Japanese sea shore😢 To see ocean you diffinitly should've go to Kamchatka or even Kuril islands😂 So you didn't get your goal in true. It's a reason to come back to the Far East later😉

[@luisangelleyvamontes9500]

AMIGO TUS VIDEOS SON LO MEJOR,ME DA GUSTO QUE HAYAS CUMPLIDO TUS SUEÑOS,SIGUE ASI ,TU CANAL ES SORPRENDENTE

[@sonofsarek]

Vladivostok is one of those “weird” places on a map that I’ve always wanted to visit. Hope you had fun.

[@olegmikheev8655]

Why is it "weird" in your opinion? Russia is not a vast wilderness.

[@davidnievesjr.9478]

I always love watching your videos of your adventures in Russia. I hope you never stop making them because I'll never stop watching them.

[@DaveLegenda]

Ohh isn't that wholesome! :D

[@ColKorn1965]

Everyone I met in Russia treated me like I was their brother (with minor exception) I miss that.

Italian are known to be one of the finest connoisseur of food! Davide should include more food review into his travelogues. That will complete the journey of eyes and tummies!

I freaking love your videos man. Like actually amazing content

[@graham262]

Norilsk, Chukitka, Kamchatka yes!! Irkutsk, YAKUTSK! So many more cool places to visit in this amazing country. I can't wait to see more of your travels.

[@donnafromnyc]

Your enthusiasm for traveling to unusual places and taking local transport--including ancient Soviet aircraft--is infectious!! Thank you from this Italian-American in New Jersey, USA.

[@jeroen1158]

This is definitely an amazing journey in the far east of Russia. Looking forward to see your impressions of Vladivostok.

[@elimlinrr6898]

An Italian being serenaded by a Kyrgyz taxi driver in Vladivostok is not a scene you can see everyday.

[@relax-tn1hx]

Cool man; cheers for showing us these places. Before the pandemic, I had the idea to travel around the world without using aeroplanes. With your videos, I am there with you. Thank you from England. Cheers

[@muhammadzia8744]

This makes me smile, I had the same reaction seeing the Pacific for the first time myself (in Oregon US)

[@chomanish]

Hi Davide, you have undertaken an amazing journey exploring the entire length and breadth of Russia, despite spending almost a decade, in Russia, I could not dare to visit many of these places, you are quite an incredible guy, I watch your videos on Russia with quite interest,

[@TropicalPine]

Nice trip to Pacific Ocean. Maybe you visit Norway someday.

[@32snowbound60]

Sweet man!! Happy you made it to the Pacific !! I love your channel dude it's awesome and unique

[@AdventureElliot]

Go Norilsk next I would love to see videos there as that place is very interesting to me

[@keeto123456]

Thank you Dave. We love an adventure through your eyes. Wonderful!!

[@peterc66]

the summers in Khabarovks are very warm and moderately long. It's just the winters that suck.

You so cute and funny I love your accent and your videos.:) Please stay warm and safe travels 💕🥾🧳🥾

[@mattanderson6336]

David, this is Siberia. It’s supposed to be cold! Get ahold of Natasha from Yeah Russia and she could show you around Kharbarovsk.

[@MineneUryuu]

It's interesting, because Vladivostok is one of the southernmost cities in Russia, it's on the same latitude as Northern Italy and Southern France, but in the winter it's as cold as Rovaniemi is Northern Finland 23 degrees to the north.

[@hutlazzz]

Hey nice vids man, im subscribe !

[@racoonzattack]

Please make a video of Vladivostok as well as maybe going to another beach there. I'm glad you made it to the Pacific ocean but that beach was kinda depressing. 😅

[@DaveLegenda]

Woot that was the happiest I've ever been on a beach.

[@cvetancenkov4927]

A big one bravo Davide.

[@evaldasustinovicius3530]

It's so much fun to see your new videos! Thanks! Go go go!

You are awesome Dave! I have binge watched most of your vids over the last few weeks and hope to catch them all soon. Thanks for all your hard work and for sharing your travels with us!

I wonder if the souvenirs collection is getting bigger since you didnt post anymore photos of that on Instagram ! Cool trip 😎

Love your videos Davide! I'm impressed with your ability with languages! Btw do you speak some Spanish? Greetings from Barcelona!

[@jameskeefe1761]

Vladivostok is really quite fascinating a European city just a few miles from China is a dramatic juxraposition. Its nice to see the beautiful Russian beaches. Its not quite Florida with women in bikinis in the heat, but still nice.

[@jojjeist]

love your videos man!

[@sythus59]

I am so happy for you Dave!!!! You are one lucky guy. Sadly, due to covid I have not been able to return to Russia for about 2 years now.

[@thiagorossi7727]

Salve, Davide. Mi sono imbattuto nei suoi video recentemente e, naturalmente, sono rimasto incuriosito in riguardo a come un italiano abbia mai potuto viaggiare a posti così isolati e lontani dalla sua terra natale. Lei potrebbe fare un video spiegando un po la sua storia, come mai ha fatto per imparare il russo, etc? Scusi per favore il mio italiano. Sono brasiliano.

[@beeverywhere9003]

[@grisoe]

Did the taxi driver know you were filming? He gave you some weird looks every time you spoke English.

[@GarlicPov]

Wholesome

[@realhawaii5o]

Allow me to explain why 3°C is worse when compared to -20°C. The reason for this is that when above 0°C, there is plenty of humidity in the air... Whereas at -20 there is no humidity so it's better.

[@shedontanks]

Looking forward to you visiting Norilsk

[@tyrozone5]

"Fits like a glove!"

[@Apheliont]

I'm so happy for your achievement!

[@louiswu6300]

amazing journey. congrats.

[@laakssim]

What a happy video for the saturday night! So cool! You should meet the youtuber Natasha "Yeah Russia" when you're there in the far east.

[@romanvostok575]

Eh, I saw the house in which I lived in Khabarovsk. And the house in which I lived when I studied in Vladivostok. And to the right of the statue of Lenin in Vladivostok is a bookstore from which I stole a collection of modernist poets. And if you go further to Egersheld, there, if you walk past buildings and fences, you can climb an excellent hill with an excellent view of the city.

8:54 famous meme in a restaurant 😂

[@SixHundredandThirteen]

Russia might have 3/4 of its country in Asia on paper , but all of Russia is mainly Europenized

[@frezzalata]

such a good guy

[@Zestieee]

I must admit I kinda wished you to choose Anadyr as the goal point of your trip to see the ocean. But that might be just a little bit too extreme.

[@DaveLegenda]

You remember the big guy from the previous vid who offered me to go to Magadan with him? In order to get to Anadyr, I would have had to accept his offer, spend four days on the road to Magadan, and then hope and pray that the ice road from Magadan to Anadyr was passable, which is very much often not the case. On top of that, I would have needed to apply for a Chukotka permit months in advance. I will do Chukotka at some point, but that will warrant a few videos on its own - it doesn't deserve being shadowed by this stupid Pacific Ocean narrative :D

[@Zestieee]

@@DaveLegenda I can't wait for that! Hope it's gonna be soon. Best wishes!! 💕

[@Tokyoflyfishing]

Ah…. Hang on. Russian Far East are mostly NOT facing the Pacific Ocean but Seas of Japan, Bering, and Okhotsk… You can take a ferry from Sakhalin to Hokkaido or find your way to Krill Islands or Kamchatka then there you are.

[@zigismundus]

Kamchatka - when???

[@markucitis6040]

Che figata! Vorrei anchio essere come te

You can go to Japan from Vladivostok if they are open.

[@johannlingmarr8406]

To visit Novaya Zemlya, it's required to issue a pass in FSB separately from the visa, since all the Arctic islands are a border zone.

[@hgu123454321]

Ok, we've now reached the point where I recognize random street scenes on the far east of Russia (the ice slide, from Yeah Russia channel) because I watch too much youtube and the path of one of my favorite vloggers crosses that of another...

[@kathyscoppettuolo7168]

I bought long silk underwear (like skiers wear) for hanging out in Russia. Working pretty well. Then, you don't have to layer up so much.

[@naumanistani]

Visit Diomede Island then you'll be 3 miles from US-Russia border

[@DaveLegenda]

Oh wouldn't that be the dream of every man? Unfortunately so far I've only been able to find one travelogue of somebody who's been to Big Diomede on the Russian side, and they didn't really explain how to get there. Once I get ahold of the permit to visit Chukotka I'll see if someone local can help

[@khole15]

How are you able to stay so long in Russia? What kind of visa?

[@JCao311]

Really glad you made it. It is so weird seeing Khabarovsk and Vladivostok has absolutely no sign of Chinese legacy left, considering the Russians actually robbed these two cities from the Chinese. Kaliningrad, Vyborg, Vladivostok, and many more cities once prosperous and populated, look at them now! History is so complicated. SMH

[@kxkxsjk2]

Bruh💀 You know why both of them have no signs of Chinese legacy? Because both of this cities were founded by Russia. Like dude, do some fact-checking please before making such statements. These territories were neutral before 1860s for both Russia and China until both of them did sign a number of agreements to distribute these territories between countries. They wasn't robbed like you say
