Sunny Beach is first and best summer resort in Bulgaria. It is positioned on the coast of the Black sea, between Varna and Burgas. While another popular resort Golden Sands is on the northern Bulgarian coast of the Black sea closer to Romania, the Sunny beach is much to the south, closer to Turkey.
The Sunny Beach resort has a mild Mediterranean climate which has attracted guest for decades. Tens of years ago, the government of Bulgaria started to invest money in this district, building first hotels and apartments.
Constructions and developement of the area really hasn’t stopped since then. Even more, in the 90’s more and more capital arrived and now over 200 different hotels, hundreds of pubs, restaurants, night clubes, stores and other tourist inviting buildings are present. Sadly not so many green areas and recreational infrastructure was built, so this is the mission for the future.
