There is no such luxurious greenery as in St. Constantine and Elena, but housing is a little cheaper and the sea is warmer due to the fact that the resort is located to the south.

Nearby are Sunny Beach, Nessebar, Burgas.

In the vicinity of Sozopol, for lovers of solitude, I can recommend a couple of hotels.

ARKUTINO RESORT 4*- a cozy and very quiet hotel near, suitable for families with kids, no discos, but organic products from the farm and a fresh Black Sea breeze. The hotel is located on a hill - you will often have to go up and down. Going to the sea on a wooden deck through the Dunes - this has its own romance.

Resorts in Bulgaria are very diverse and offer many diverse options for recreation. To understand where in Bulgaria it is better to relax, you need to consider a few points:

Resorts for families with children

For a comfortable stay with children, the ideal purity of water and sand, a smooth descent into the water without drops, a calm sea, and fine sand are important. For someone, the presence of animators, educators, children's towns, where you can leave the child for a while, and various entertainments for children matters. If the child eats only homemade food, it is important to have apart-hotels in the resort where you can cook on your own. If the child is older and there are no problems with food, many parents prefer all inclusive.

Where is it better to relax with a child in Bulgaria:

Albena. One of the most popular children's resorts in Bulgaria. The sea and the beach are ecologically clean, which is confirmed by the Blue Flag of the Environmental Education Foundation. There is a sandy beach, the purest white-golden sand. Albena has a lot of entertainment for children: an amusement park, an autodrome, a mini-railway, and children's slot machines have been made for kids. There is a kindergarten, children's clubs. Older children will be interested in pedal boats, karting, mini-golf, archery, horseback riding.

Elenite. This is a club complex with its own beach, so the prices here are a little higher. The complex works on the All inclusive system. On the territory - 2 children's clubs, equipped playgrounds.

Dunes. Calm and cozy place. It is located in the heart of the bay, so the sea here is very quiet, with clear turquoise water. Prices are about the same as in Elenite.

Review . This is a small resort village. The beaches of Obzor are quite spacious even in the peak season. There are sections of the beach with gentle shallows, where it is convenient to swim with children. The beach is covered with fine golden sand. Prices in Obzor are generally 2-3 times lower than in large popular resorts.

Pomorie. The terrain here is flat and the sea is shallow, so Pomorie is suitable for a holiday with a small child. Prices in the city are low. You can also undergo medical procedures here.

Youth resorts

Clubs, discos, cafes, restaurants and other entertainment are in abundance at the following resorts:

Golden Sands Life here never stops. In addition to clubs, bars, cafes, the resort has many opportunities for outdoor activities. Also, during the entire tourist season, events are held: beauty contests, competitions, concerts of famous performers and much more.

Sunny Beach. The largest resort in Bulgaria - there are about 800 hotels. Also in the city there are more than 250 restaurants, many cafes, bars, casinos, cinemas. Concerts, fashion shows, beauty contests are held here. If you choose where to relax in Bulgaria with a cheerful company, choose this resort - you will not be mistaken. Even the most sophisticated lovers of nightlife will not get bored in Sunny Beach.

Excursion rest

If, in addition to the sea and the beach, you want to see historical monuments, you should go to Sozopol or Nessebar. And also go on an excursion to Balchik.

Sozopol is the oldest city on the territory of modern Bulgaria. It was founded in 4-3 millennium BC. e. This is a small picturesque town with old houses. Sozopol is very fond of artists, writers and just romantics.

Nessebar (Nessebar). The ruins of ancient towers and temples have been preserved on the territory of the city. There are also 7 beautiful old churches here, each of which is an architectural monument and deserves special attention. According to some estimates, it has the highest number of churches per capita in the world. The city is included in the UNESCO list of cultural monuments.

Balchik is interesting primarily for the Botanical Garden and the residence of Queen Mary. About 200 species of trees grow in the garden, many types of flowers - more than 3,000 exotic plants in total. The palace complex is a unique phenomenon: the park is an imitation of the Cretan labyrinth, and the church located here was originally located on the island of Crete and was transferred to the park by stone. The Garden of Allah deserves special attention, where the Silver Well is located, alleys lined with millstones; African earthenware jars from Morocco.

Primorsko is a relatively new and not yet very popular resort. There are picturesque nature and clean air, and there are more sunny days a year than in many other resorts. Since there are not many tourists here yet, the prices are quite low.

Obzor is a small and cozy resort village. There are many Bulgarians and foreigners among vacationers here. There are many restaurants of national cuisine, prices in which are 2-3 times lower than in popular resorts.

Pomorie. There are many small cozy hotels, family pensions and clinics in the city, where you can relax and improve your health at an affordable price.

How to choose a resort according to the season?

The beach season in Bulgaria lasts from June to the end of September. However, in the first half of June and in the second half of September the sea can be cold. Therefore, at the beginning and end of the season, it is better to choose the southernmost resorts - where the sea heats up faster and cools down longer. In early June, Nessebar is a good choice, where the sea is quite shallow and warms up quickly. In September, you can go to the Dunes, Sunny Beach, Primorsko. In July and August, the sea along the entire coast is already warm, and you can choose any resort.

Long coastline, clear water and warm fine sand, so appreciated by European tourists - all this makes a large number of very popular, moreover, this popularity is growing from year to year. You can at least every year relax in different places, while getting new emotions and impressions, because each place from our today's rating has its own unique features and advantages over others. It is difficult to rank large cities with centuries of history and small resorts, but you can come up with nominations for them. So, for a sea holiday for every taste, they are waiting for you in today's article.

So, in first place in the ranking of the most famous outside the country the best seaside resorts in Bulgaria, of course, Varna. This city is a real ultimate dream for all Soviet residents 30-40 years ago, such a Bulgarian analogue of Sochi or Yalta, where many interesting things are collected. A huge number of tourists still travel here, who like to combine a beach holiday and an educational one, and also want, as they say, to plunge into social life.

Varna for tourists traveling to, the pleasure is not cheap. In local hotels, a room can cost you 2 times more than in smaller resort complexes. And despite the fact that there are no ideal beaches in Varna itself, everything will have to be reached additionally. Among the advantages - excellent infrastructure. The presence of not only an airport, but also a good transport interchange, so that if you wish, you can quickly and conveniently get to anywhere on the Bulgarian coast from here. For those who want to get a complete impression of a resort holiday full of cafes, clubs, restaurants and parks, with visits to museums and excursions for every taste, Varna is definitely worth choosing.

If for you the concept of "expensive" is identical to the concept of "good", then you need to consider the most expensive options among the best resorts in Bulgaria on the sea. Rating, compiled by tour operators, gives the palm among all Bulgarian premium-segment holiday destinations to Riviera, a complex located near Varna.

Not far behind the Riviera is another small town, which over several decades has turned from a fishing village into a fashionable resort. We are talking about it is called the resort of millionaires for its features, for example, for a perfectly equipped bay with a berth for ships and yachts, where the richest people not only in Bulgaria, but also in neighboring countries keep their boats (worth hundreds of thousands of euros). The port itself and the Marina embankment leave an excellent impression on any tourist, especially since here you can watch the annual sailing regatta, a big event even on a national scale.

The best seaside resorts in Bulgaria

Respectability is not needed by all tourists who discover Bulgaria. Most often, young people are interested in completely different categories, so for them the list the best seaside resorts in Bulgaria has been heading Sunny Beach for many years. And the point is not only in its two beaches, which are marked with a blue flag, a valuable quality mark for every beach resort, but also in the abundance of entertainment and accommodation for every taste and budget.

The best seaside resorts in Bulgaria: rating

Children are the main target audience that tour operators rely on when offering tours to Bulgaria, because the mild climate, quality food, warm sea and all this is close to home and relatively cheap - all these factors are very important for every caring parent. If singled out among best resorts in Bulgaria by the sea rating the most childish, then Kranevo will be in the first place, with its famous and favorite water park "Aqua-Life". Not without reason, most of the local hotels are designed to receive a large number of children's and youth groups, in each hotel you will find decent animation, rental of sports equipment, bicycles, so you will not think about what to do with little fidgets.

The best seaside resorts in Bulgaria

So far, we have mostly told you about the best seaside resorts in Bulgaria which are widely known to our tourists. But there are also several interesting places, which so far remain practically a purely Bulgarian place, which the Bulgarians themselves are not too eager to reveal. Most often, such towns and villages are very calm, quiet, it is there that you can admire the unique Black Sea wildlife and get a real charge of health and vigor for the whole next year. In addition, as in all places “for their own”, prices here will be much lower than in popular complexes and resort towns.

Alina Pashinskaya

Bulgaria is famous for its various resorts. There are in the country like long promoted, and very young, but rapidly conquering their potential tourists are small picturesque villages. They also go to Bulgaria improve your health, relax both body and soul. The seaside resorts of the country attract not only young, but also more mature vacationers who remember the hospitable fraternal Bulgaria.

Nessebar - the oldest city in Europe

In the New part of Pomorie is the monastery of St. George. We managed to visit not only the territory of the temple, but also its museum, which is located right there, completely free of charge (we still left the donation of the temple, but voluntarily!).

All sorts of festivals for tourists and residents of the city often take place on the territory of this cinema.

A large and expensive hotel complex impresses with its size (the photo shows only 1/20 of its size).

An interesting idea for decorating a restaurant on the coast of Pomorie.

The city has a lot of greenery and parks. In the hot summer heat, this is especially valuable.

Burgas is one of largest cities Bulgaria

quite attractive and inexpensive resort. There is a large seaport, international airport, railway and bus stations.

Burgas has beautiful clean beaches, a large seaside park (about 7 km) with an opera house and several museums. All this attracts many tourists to the city every year.

Despite the fact that the Internet is actively promising cheap shopping in Burgas, in fact prices there very rather big, Truth good choice. The city itself, although large, is very beautiful.

On the main street of Burgas is the "navel of the city".

If you do not know where the opera house is located in the city, then you may not notice it. Outwardly, it looks more like an ordinary building.

Although Burgas is a port city, the coasts are clean and the water is calm and calm.

In front of the monument to the Soviet soldier right on the main square of Burgas, in the morning you can "refresh yourself" in an unusual fountain.

One of the main attractions of the city is the seaside park of Burgas.

Sunny Beach is the most expensive resort in Bulgaria

- one of the most popular and famous tourist complexes of the country. A city of incessant discos, built up with rows of countless hotels. Everything is expensive here. Prices in shops, restaurants, on the beaches, by taxi - several times higher than in Pomorie. And at the same time the resort is literally packed with people. The beaches, although clean, can often be seen seaweed on the shore (and in the evening they are thrown back into the water).

Awarded for the environmental benefits of water and sand blue flag.

On Sunny Beach there is a bus station. In the city you can easily order many excursions.

If you stomp on these planks under the scorching sun for a long, long time, you can go to the beach of Sunny Beach.

Tourists who settled in this hotel are more fortunate - they do not need to go far to the beach.

Cheerful Duck perfectly copes with his role - he invites vacationers to enjoy fast food.

A bridge is thrown across the busy highway of Sunny Beach. In it you can walk up to the second floor or ride the elevator and cross the dangerous road.

A popular form of entertainment for vacationers in Sunny Beach is a souvenir photo with a huge live parrot.

Balchik - city-botanical garden

Balchik - inexpensive but not too beautiful resort. We would not want to rest here all 14 days.

The popularity of Balchik is given by the fabulously beautiful summer residence of the Romanian queen in him. This is one of the main attractions of all Bulgaria, especially its seaside region.

The city is located in the north of the country and is the third largest seaport. We've been looking for a long time bus station in Balchik, but it turned out that his not anymore. Next to the old and abandoned building is a regular stop. On it hangs the schedule of buses, on which you can leave the city.

The main disadvantage, is that get there from Balchik directly to the same Nessebar or Burgas impossible. Necessarily need to change in Varna.

This is how the bus station in Balchik looks now - a completely abandoned building.

Walking the streets of Balchik is not very pleasant. Everywhere you are surrounded by old buildings, and it is difficult to hide from the sun, as there is little greenery.

From the outside, the Queen's residence looks much better than inside.

There is also an Ethnographic Museum in the city, but the entrance to it is paid.

The entire city of Balchik is clearly visible from the territory of the botanical garden.

Golden Sands - a hot resort in Bulgaria

Golden Sands is one of the biggest resorts in the country. Prices Here a little lower than in Sunny Beach, but the weather is usually very hot. The sun bakes simply unbelievably, because the mountains do not allow fresh air to break through, so it is often stuffy here.

Great fit for young people and nightlife lovers. This resort will not let you get bored - music and fun does not stop around the clock. But there is one downside here - descent to the beach and entrance to the sea not so gentle, as in Sunny Beach or Nessebar due to the mountainous terrain.

Varna - cultural and historical heritage of Bulgaria

Varna is also popular resort Bulgaria. This is a huge, lively city with a lot of parks, shops and squares. It’s impossible to say that everything here is very cheap, but you can’t name particularly high prices either.

Varna is an important economic and cultural center with its own airport and well-established ferry service. This the biggest port city in Bulgaria.

Varna has big bus station, from which you can leave in any direction - both in Bulgaria itself and in other countries of the world.

There are many unusual and beautiful buildings in Varna, especially in the city center.

The Assumption Cathedral of Varna is very beautiful in the evening, when it is illuminated from below by many small lanterns.

Openwork Asparuhov Bridge is the longest bridge in Bulgaria, connecting the two parts of Varna.

Obzor is a young resort village

In this town we were only passing through, but it seemed to us cute And inexpensive, let and a bit boring. Obzor is developing rapidly and soon promises a luxurious vacation for any category of tourists.

Prices On him much lower than in the popular resorts of the country. in the town there is a bus station.

Sea a little warmer than in neighboring Golden Sands. Great for holidays with children. Obzor has a children's camp with a water park and an amusement park.

Obzor has a small bus station.

Residential houses and hotels in the village are small, but cozy.

Life flows slowly on the streets of Obzor.

An information board stands next to the bus station and anyone can read useful information.

In the village, as we have noticed, there is a lot of greenery, which is an undoubted plus on hot summer days.

Well, gentlemen vacationers, it's time to look for a place under the sun. And better on an inexpensive, but comfortable sun lounger! How do you like your holiday in Bulgaria - very close to home, a Russian-speaking country, safe and inexpensive!

"Sweet Pepper, Golden Sands and Rose Oil" -

These three phrases are associated primarily with Bulgaria: according to rumors, locals use sweet pepper as an ingredient for all dishes, including brandy and cakes, and a wide range of cosmetics are made based on rose oil.

And there is no need to talk much about Golden Sands - this is the most famous Bulgarian seaside resort, tested by the grandparents of Russian youth.

Of course, this is the most superficial idea of ​​​​the beautiful Balkan country.

In Bulgaria, there are enough not only beautiful beaches, but also excellent ski resorts, historical and cultural attractions.

Most vacations are in the summer, so potential tourists are interested in holidays in Bulgaria from mid-June to early September.

Weather in Bulgaria by months: June, July, August, September

The country has access to the western coast of the Black Sea: the coastline stretches from north to south and is about 380 km long. Due to the peculiarities of the geographical location, the temperature of water and air varies somewhat.

During the first days of summer, seaside resorts boast a pleasant air temperature during the day, but by the evening it is noticeably fresher.

A trip in the first decade of June is called into question by the rather invigorating temperature of the water in the sea, fluctuating around 20 - 21 ° C and occasional rains. There is no season for the season, but for cautious heat-loving tourists, it is better to postpone the dates of travel to Bulgaria to July.

In order not to get upset because of the cold water in the sea or rain, plan a trip no earlier than June 10, and choose one of the southern resorts where the “beach” weather comes a little earlier.

Weather in Bulgarian seaside resorts in June

During the day, the air in the north of the country warms up to 24 - 26 ° C, in the evening it cools down to 20 ° C.

The weather in the south is quite comfortable and suitable for tourists who do not tolerate heat well: the air temperature during the day is 26 - 28 ° C, at night it drops to 21 ° C. The water in the sea warms up quickly by the end of the month, and its temperature exceeds 23°C.

An indisputable plus of a holiday in June is the opportunity to sunbathe for a long time, but do not forget about sunscreen!

July weather

The middle of summer is the perfect time for those who do not like the heat, but do not have a love for cool sea water. The air temperature during the day in the north is 28 - 29 ° C, the water in the sea does not fall below 23 ° C, and its average value is quite comfortable 24.5 ° C.

The southern resorts will greet you with a daytime temperature of 29-31°C, and the water in the sea will be 24-25°C.

Fans of a cloudless sky need not worry: there are almost no cloudy days in July!

August weather

The end of summer is the peak of the beach season. If you have no complaints about hot sunshine and categorically do not accept water temperatures below 25°C, plan a trip to Bulgaria in August.

The air in the resorts of the north during the day warms up to 29 - 31 ° C, in the south it is a little hotter: 30 - 32 ° C. Sea water has a pleasant temperature: 25.5 - 26°C.

The last month of summer is the sunniest and warmest month of the year!

September weather

The first two weeks of autumn are perfect for a beach holiday, especially if you are not too excited about the scorching sun. The number of rainy days is minimal, the water temperature in the sea does not fall below 23°C. The air cools down a bit: daytime temperatures are 25 - 27°C, but very warm days are possible, around 30°C.

Every time, those who constantly come here to relax from year to year in the summer know the nuances of the right and best vacation in Bulgaria. And especially for those who are interested in where it is better to relax and where to go with children, for example, we have selected several places popular among Russians for a beach holiday in this country.

Balchik

An amazingly beautiful ancient city in the north of the Black Sea coast of Bulgaria. White cliffs, on which the streets are terraced, and white houses with red and yellow roofs in spring and summer are framed by bright greenery.

Balchik looks very attractive from the sea.

The city is perfect for tourists who experience discomfort in noisy party resorts. Magnificent sandy beaches, calm sea, excellent service and a good location that allows you to easily visit the various sights located nearby - these are the advantages that will help you decide on the choice of a Bulgarian resort.

Perhaps the decisive argument will be the opportunity to improve your health at a well-known balneological resort located 5 km away.

Albena

This is a relatively young resort in the north of the Black Sea coast of Bulgaria, which began to develop in the 70s of the XX century.

Do you view resorts purely from a parent's point of view? Albena is the best Bulgarian resort for families with children: clean sandy beaches with a gentle entry into the water - all, without exception, with the Blue Flag certificate, a large number of children's entertainment, a nature reserve located near the border, saturating the air with freshness.

Golden Sands - a traditional holiday in Bulgaria

The most famous and popular resort located in the northern part of the Black Sea coast, which first comes to mind when planning a holiday in Bulgaria.

Golden Sands is located in the National Park, so the tourist complex is surrounded by lush vegetation that delights with its untouched beauty.

The magnificent beach of the resort, covered with pure golden sand, is 3.5 km long and up to 100 m wide. The infrastructure is designed for the most active tourists: here you can do a variety of water and "land" sports.

Fans of entertainment and gambling will not feel left out either: a whole range of fun activities await them, from open-air theater to casinos.

Vacationers with children should also pay attention to this resort: according to reviews, many hotels are designed for families.

The popularity of Golden Sands, paradoxically, is its disadvantage: it is quite noisy here. However, choosing a home away from the center, you will solve this problem.

Varna

Another well-known and visited resort in Bulgaria is the capital of the country's maritime territories. Varna is so popular that it has its own airport. If you decide to go to Europe and choose Bulgaria for your vacation, then feel free to purchase vouchers to Varna. This is an ideal place to relax with children.

Your child will not be bored: dolphinarium, planetarium and Happy Land (children's park). And adults will be able to have fun here to the fullest - in addition to the magnificent beaches, you should visit the monastery on the Alanja rock, the Assumption Cathedral.

Sunny Beach - the best holiday in Bulgaria

A wonderful large resort complex is located in the middle part of the Black Sea coast. It is famous for the cleanest beaches with the Blue Flag certificate with a gentle entry into the sea and crystal clear water without noticeable waves, and the surrounding nature that creates a wonderful microclimate.

Sunny Beach is great for families with children: in addition to the magnificent beach, there is a large water park.

The resort is being actively developed: if you are a fan of new hotels and pristine sun loungers, consider a trip to Sunny Beach!
