Beaches in Bulgaria
The wide coastline and the unique nature of the beaches in Bulgaria have made them a preferred destination for tourists from all over the world.

You will be fascinated by the lovely beaches in Golden Sands, Albena, Sunny Beach, Sozopol, Ahtopol, Elenite and the exceptionally beautiful beaches of Nessebar. The climate of Bulgaria’s sea resorts ensures many sunny days each summer, that’s why the conditions for sun-bathing at the beaches are perfect for the greatest part of the tourist season. Lately the Bulgarian government and the property-owners in the sea resorts pay great attention to the ecological state of the beaches. Ecological measures are increasingly being taken to keep the beaches in Bulgaria clean from litterBeach entertainment
The numerous cafes and bars at the beaches in Bulgarian resorts are a wonderful opportunity to get a cool drink and chill out on the hot summer days. There are good conditions for practicing all kinds of beach and watersports: beach volleyball, waterskiing, surfing, paragliding, scuba-diving. For all beach and water activities you have at your disposal licensed coaches and guides. If you get tired from sun-bathing and crave for a new, exciting experience, you can always leave the beach for a day and visit the breathtaking Aquaparks in Albena and Golden Sands.Book a hotel on the beach
It’s not a bad idea to book a room in a hotel right on the seashore. You come out of your hotel and you are right on the beach, not having to walk on foot even a mile! Besides, the location of hotels on the beach allows for a lovely sea view. Sunny Beach offers a good choice of luxury hotels on the beach where you will find cozy rooms and a high level of service. The Victoria Hotel Complex, the Globus Hotel, the Fiesta Beach hotel and the LTI Neptun Beach hotel are the more classy alternatives. The Europe hotel is a middle class hotel on the seashore with nice rooms and very friendly staff. Most hotels on the beautiful Albena beach are designed so as to get more sunshine on sunny summer days. The Albena Beach Club Hotel, the Dobrotitsa Hotel, the Kaliakra Hotel and the Laguna Beach Hotel are the options for comfortable accommodation at the seashore with splendid view over the sea. The high-class Berlin Golden Beach Hotel and the Glarus Hotel in Golden Sands are situated directly on the sandy beach. If you seek beach accommodation in Nessebar, the best choice is the four-star Marina Palace Hotel. The Royal Park Hotel on the beach of the Elenite resort is an ideal choice for a family summer vacation.The vocalist of Uriah Heep shoots a movie about Smolyan
