In parallel with the construction of the first stage of the resort of 30 hotels and chalets, the relief was planned on the dunes. Half a million tons of fertile soil was brought here, and then more than a million trees and ornamental shrubs, tens of thousands of roses were planted. The first holiday season here opened in 1959.

The resort's large summer cinema hosted the prestigious Golden Globe Song Contest (1965-1999) for several decades in a row.

In the Soviet Union, holidays in Sunny Beach were considered incredibly prestigious, and after Bulgaria joined the European Union, the resort was appreciated by tourists from all over the continent. The comfort created here and the traditional friendliness of the locals allowed this largest health resort in Bulgaria to earn the prestigious title of "The most friendly resort for families with children" in the ranking of European resorts.

Landscape and climate

The resort is located on the shore of a horseshoe-shaped bay facing the east, deeply protruding into the mainland. At some distance to the north, the foothills of the Stara Planina massif begin, protecting the coast from cold winds. Meteorologists define the local climate as temperate continental, the weather is formed under the influence of the Black Sea and warm air masses brought from the nearby Mediterranean.

Sunny Beach lives up to its name. The sun shines over it for 2,300 hours a year. The beach season begins here already in May, when the air temperature warms up to +22...+24 °C. True, the water in the sea at this time is still cool. In the most favorable period for relaxing in the resort (June-September), only 2-3 days a month can be cloudy. Daytime temperature in summer is even, stably keeps within +24 ... +26 °С, and sea water does not fall below +23 °С. Winter in this region is mild, almost snowless.

The exchange rate of the lev to the euro: 1 lev = 0.51 €, to the Russian ruble: 1 lev = 35.7 rubles. Foreign currency is not accepted in hotels and shops, but sellers in the markets will gladly accept dollars and euros.

Most of the entertainment venues, restaurants and shops are located in the central quarters of the resort, and the most luxurious hotels occupied the Chaika area, in the north of the bay.

Nessebar

Nessebar, a member of the club of the oldest cities in Europe, was founded about three thousand years ago. Today, its historical part is under the auspices of UNESCO and included in the World Cultural Heritage List (1983). The old city is located on a small peninsula. In essence, this is a rock connected to the mainland by a narrow isthmus, which was easy to defend from enemies. Archaeological artifacts indicate that Nessebar was founded by the Thracians in the Bronze Age, and around 500 BC. e. the ancient Greek city-state of Mesembria was built here. After an earthquake that happened many centuries ago, part of this policy went under the waters of the Black Sea. Ancient buildings are still visible from the rocky promontory. The peninsula that remained above the water became quite tiny, about 800 m long and half the width. It's amazing how many structures fit on this patch. The old city is replete with monuments of Greek and Roman antiquity, medieval fortifications, Christian churches of the Byzantine era. The oldest church is the temple in the name of Hagia Sophia (V century). Ribarska Street will lead you to the ruins of the ancient theatre.

An interesting exposition of the Archaeological Museum, located on Messembria Street, will tell about the history of the city. Further down the same street you will find the Ethnographic Museum. Cozy cafes, souvenir shops and small shops are often located in old buildings built in the 18th-19th centuries.

New Nessebar begins right behind the isthmus, near which a small city port and a yacht club have been built. From here, boat trips on yachts and boats begin. With the owners of small private yachts, you can arrange individual boat trips for a family of three or four people.

Modern Nessebar is planned with love for history and the surrounding nature; it does not suppress its ancient part at all. This is a compact, cozy resort town with low buildings. Clean streets are planted with trees, houses with light facades are covered with red tiles, there are several inexpensive hotels, and locals willingly rent out rooms and apartments to tourists.

In the north and south of the city limits, picturesque sand dunes surrounding wide beaches have remained untouched. In the east, a large park approaches the city, planted in the middle of the last century, during the construction of the Sunny Beach resort. During the planning of the landscape, the tombs of the ancient inhabitants of the city were discovered. After archaeological research, they are open for inspection.

However, it is not forbidden to sit on your own towel or an air mattress at a distance from tightly set sunbeds. Enough space.

On the municipal Central Beach, the cost of a set of an umbrella and a plastic sunbed is 7 leva, it can be very crowded here.

Cute products are offered by locals selling their handicrafts on the coastal promenade. Particularly beautiful are knitted woolen items that craftswomen produce right behind the counter, tirelessly flickering with knitting needles.

Go shopping in malls. Please note that large stores once a week arrange sales of goods with significant discounts. On such days, supermarkets send their own buses throughout the resort, bringing everyone free to shop. The largest of them is the Janet hypermarket.

If you are staying in an apartment, this is the place for you. Janet has the largest selection of alcohol, cheeses and sausages in the resort.

Restaurants

The best restaurants in Sunny Beach are not always located in the most iconic places in the resort.

There are many restaurants in the resort of Sunny Beach that belong to the category "tasty and inexpensive". Dinner for two will cost 25-30 leva.

Shaped steaks and pork ribs at the Hawaii beach restaurant are consistently good. Their appetizing smell serves as a sure guide - something delicious is being cooked here! This open-air bungalow with a thatched canopy and palm trees in tubs is always full of hungry beachgoers, but the place for you will soon become free, the staff is working quickly. Let's open a little secret: order a cocktail here after 18:00, and the bartender will send you exactly the same as a gift.

An appetizing grill menu is offered by La Banana Bar and Food. The local chefs are not stingy, the portions are simply huge. While you overcome them, washing down with cold beer, your children will play in the children's corner. In the evenings, live music sounds here, mixing with the rustle of the surf - the restaurant stands a stone's throw from the water.

We advise you to get acquainted with Bulgarian cuisine at the Jupiter Steak House restaurant. It is located near the Luna Park, in the Chaika quarter. First, order shkembe chorba - a spicy offal soup with garlic. On the second - shish kebab of lamb. As a side dish, try mish-mash, these are stewed vegetables mixed with cheese. Portions of perfectly fried meat are so large that one skewer will be enough for two. But if you can’t finish the meat, they will pack it for you. Wash down lunch with rakija, a strong fruit vodka, or Bulgarian red wine. If you prefer beer, order a crispy kashkaval - breaded fried cheese. Chushka burek is also good with beer - Bulgarian pepper stuffed with cheese, baked in ceramic pots.

There are rental offices of international companies Budget, Hertz, Enterprise, InterRent, the cost of car rental is from 40 leva / day, a good selection of cars. The resort also has rental offices of the local company Top Rent-a-Car, the choice of cars is small, and it is unrealistic to find inexpensive cars during the tourist season.

Highway E87 leads from Varna to Sunny Beach. The first part of the route (about 30 km) falls on the mountainous terrain, then the highway descends to the seaside lowland. On the site near the city of Obzor, the highway passes very close to the coast. Here you can stop to swim and have a bite to eat in the beach tavern. The cost of gasoline in Bulgaria is about 2 leva per liter. Almost all parking lots are paid - 2-3 leva/hour or 12 leva/day.

How to get there

Sunny Beach resort can be reached via Sofia, Burgas or Varna. Planes fly to these Bulgarian cities from many airports in the Russian Federation - Moscow, St. Petersburg, Cherepovets, Samara, Yekaterinburg and others.

The shortest and most acceptable route from Moscow is a three-hour flight to Burgas (ticket - from 9875 rubles), from there take bus number 15 (ticket costs 1 lev) to the South Bus Station. Buses run regularly to Sunny Beach. In the summer season, the interval of movement does not exceed half an hour, the travel time is 45 minutes. A ticket for a regular bus to the bus station in Sunny Beach costs 6 leva, but after 23:30 to 6:00 these buses do not run. You can get from the airport to the resort at any time of the day on a commercial shuttle bus, but the driver will not set off until all the seats are occupied. The fare is 16 leva. It is convenient to book shuttle tickets in advance, on the carrier's website, indicating the flight number, arrival time and number of passengers.

A taxi ride from Sarafovo airport to your hotel in Sunny Beach will cost about 60 leva (daily rate).

The cost of a flight to Varna (airport "Aksakovo") is comparable to the price of an air ticket to Burgas. Only getting to Sunny Beach from Varna is a little longer. From Varna Airport by bus number 409 you need to get to the Central Bus Station (ticket - 2 leva, a quarter of an hour to go). Here in the schedule, look for flights to Nessebar or Burgas. These buses stop at the bus station of the Sunny Beach resort. The fare is 12 leva. When planning a trip, check the bus schedule (it changes from season to season) so that you do not have to spend the night in Varna.

From the bus station of Varna to Sunny Beach is less than 100 km, but the bus ride takes about two hours. The highway passes through many coastal communities where speed is limited. In addition, the bus stops several times along the way. On Fridays, the roads are crowded with cars going to the sea for the weekend, and on Sundays - in the opposite direction. These days there are often traffic jams and "toffees".

A taxi ride will take about an hour and cost about 100-120 leva.

There is another air route to the Sunny Beach of Bulgaria - through Turkey. For tourists from the southeastern regions of the Russian Federation, such a trip will become much shorter and cheaper than transit through Moscow or St. Petersburg. From Kazan, Rostov-on-Don, Nizhnekamsk, many Siberian cities connected with Istanbul by Turkish Airlines or flights of other companies, you can use this direction. For example, it takes 4 hours to fly from Naberezhnye Chelny to Istanbul, the ticket price is about 8,000 rubles. Comfortable buses regularly depart from Istanbul to Burgas.

At Istanbul Ataturk Airport, go to the metro station (a token costs 3 lira). You need to get to the bus station (station "Otogar", the tenth in a row). Buses to Burgas depart daily in the morning and in the evening (check the schedule in advance). The ticket price is 70 lira, which is about 15 €. Travel time is 6-7 hours, including about an hour stop at the Malko Tarnovo checkpoint on the border with Bulgaria. The bus arrives at the Central Bus Station of Burgas, from there any passing bus heading towards Varna or a taxi will take you to the bus station of the Sunny Beach resort.

If your budget allows, take a taxi directly from Istanbul Ataturk Airport. You will be taken to Sunny Beach in 4-5 hours, the estimated cost of the trip is 250 €.

If you prefer traveling by rail, then train No. 59 M "Moscow - Sofia" ("Bulgarian Express") is at your service, departing from the Kievsky railway station in Moscow. In the summer season, from mid-June to early September, this train includes trailer cars that deliver passengers to Burgas and Varna. The journey will take a little more than a day. From St. Petersburg in the summer to Varna, train No. 051 B "Black Sea" departs weekly. Travel time - 63 hours.

Personally, it seemed to us that the resort was too advertised, and the prices here are simply cosmic, as for budget Bulgaria. Although for Muscovites the same prices will seem quite acceptable and even cheap.

Our reviews of Sunny Beach

To make it easier for you to decide whether a holiday in Sunny Beach is right for you, we have prepared our small reviews about this resort.

Victor's review of Sunny Beach in Bulgaria

Personally, I didn't really like Sunny Beach. The resort is frankly expensive, and the locals are too intrusive (this is not typical for Bulgaria at all).

The prices here are 3-4 times higher than in, there is nothing to watch, they are so crowded with people that there is not the slightest desire to swim in them. For me, it turned out to be one of the most boring resorts in the country.

But it is worth considering that by nature I am a rather closed person and even a little greedy. I rarely visit discos and nightclubs, I am not attracted to nightlife and "entertainment" at all.

Alina's review of Sunny Beach Bulgaria

Sunny Beach is probably one of the most popular resorts in Bulgaria. There are a huge number of hotels, restaurants and nightclubs. Sunny Beach is very fond of young people, so the nightlife of the resort is always stormy and multifaceted.

Settling in this town, especially if not on the first line, you risk spending up to half an hour a day of your precious time, stomping to the beach under the hot summer sun and getting bogged down in hot sand (although some beaches have a path made of wooden boards).

Holidays in Sunny Beach can be classified as more elite and expensive. If you want to settle down beautifully and comfortably, then Sunny Beach is exactly what you need.
