About This Site
Note: During the distant 2007 Peter, my best friend, and I decided to travel around Bulgaria's Black Sea coast, take photos and make this site. This is a precious memory and archive from back then.
Discover Bulgarian Beaches
Bulgaria is a popular destination for summer holidays. Its coastline features thousands of beaches ranging from pristine natural coves to fully-developed resort complexes. Whether you seek vibrant nightlife, family-friendly facilities, romantic seclusion, or authentic Bulgarian coastal culture, you'll find your perfect beach here. Unfortunately, the Bulgarian beaches are ruined by the reckless business. Many of the photos here will probably remain just memories...
What Makes Bulgarian Beaches Special
Bulgarian Black Sea beaches offer exceptional value compared to Western Europe, with warm summer waters (22-25°C), fine golden sand, and diverse experiences. From the party atmosphere of Sunny Beach and Golden Sands to the untouched beauty of Silistar and Irakli, each destination has unique character. Prices remain affordable, locals are welcoming, and the coastal cuisine features fresh seafood and traditional Bulgarian specialties.
