Holidays to Bulgaria are big on Blue Flag beaches, ancient sites, and stay-up-late party scenes.
Hidden Gem
Bulgaria has been the go-to place for trip-savvy people for years. It’s got Blue Flag beaches, centuries worth of history, and a clubbing scene in the Bourgas Region that rivals the Mediterranean’s more established resorts.
Bourgas Region
Bulgaria’s Bourgas region is in the country’s south-east corner. The big-hitter in these parts is Sunny Beach, a resort that stretches over eight kilometres of sand. A mythicaI castle and mud lake make up a day’s exploring and if you’re looking to party, this is the place to be – the beach is backed by countless bars and clubs.
Varna Region
Further up the Black Sea coast is the Varna region. The Danube Plain’s hilly landscape sets the scene in these parts, plus forests, thermal springs and a desert. Golden Sands takes the top spot here when it comes to where to base yourself. The resort’s got one of Bulgaria’s best beaches and it’s lined with bars and restaurants.
