Burgas

A major tourist province on the southern Black Sea coast, with Sunny Beach, the ancient town of Nessebar and Sozopol, the top choice for a summer holiday.

Burgas Province lies in southeastern Bulgaria, bordering the Black Sea to the east and Turkey to the south, and has one of the country's longest coastlines. In the north are the large resort of Sunny Beach and the World Heritage–listed ancient town of Nessebar; the capital, Burgas, has a seaside park and surrounding lagoon wetlands famous for birdwatching. In the south, the old town of Sozopol, Pomorie and Strandzha Nature Park each have their own character. June to September is the peak beach season, while spring and autumn suit birdwatching and visits to the old towns. The transport gateway is Burgas Airport, which has many flights in summer.
