TL;DR
Based on chat feedback, sea conditions in Batumi in August can be unstable, and similar issues reportedly lasted through much of last August. Because of the coastal weather, water and beach conditions may change noticeably.
One chat participant said similar unstable sea conditions lasted through most of last August, so travelers in early or mid-August should not expect the water to be equally clean every day.
According to the chat, coastal weather is unstable, so sea conditions in Batumi can change quickly — the water may be fine at one time and draw complaints again later.
The practical takeaway from the discussion is to check very recent local updates a few days before your Batumi trip in August, because sea conditions do not appear to stay consistent for the whole season.
