The Marine Park or, as the locals call it, the garden is one of the most beautiful places in the city. That is why the city is empty on warm days, and the park is always fun. There is a lot of entertainment here from quiet walks together in the green part of the park or along the embankment, to a cafe or the Flora exhibition center and playgrounds, amusement parks and other amusements.
You can rent bicycles or listen to a concert on the open stage closer to Bogoridi. You can also walk through the park from the square. Zornitsa to the Center and the passenger port, behind the Primorets hotel. Discotheques operate in the park during the summer nights.
In general, this is definitely the place that will please everyone from the smallest to pensioners.
