What you need to know before you book your airfare and tickets
If you're looking to get away but don't want to be surrounded by loads of fellow countrymen this summer, why not buy a cheap flight to Bourgas? The fourth largest Bulgarian city situated on the shores of the Black Sea is a convenient gateway to many sandy beaches such as Sunny Beach, Nessebar, Sozopol, Dyuni, Elenite, and many many more. These beach resorts have all the mod cons you'd expect from any big resort on European coasts. There are lots of shops, funky bars and great restaurants and of course amazing beaches waiting for you to laze on. As tempting as these beaches look, don't miss out on exploring the city of Bourgas when you're here. Its history dates back to Ancient Greek times and there are loads of sights to be visited and quaint little streets to be discovered. The surrounding area is also worth a visit. Head over to Zlatni Pyasatsi natural park and visit the Aladzha Rock monastery. Or drive on to Balchik and visit the botanical garden in this cute town that lies in a breathtaking inlet north of Varna. Drive further north to the Kaliakra and Shabla capes for some more jaw dropping views before ou head back to your comfy lounger on the beach.
