Burgas District
Burgas Region is one of the most developed regions in Bulgaria. It is situated in the southeastern part of the country and is the second biggest after Sofia Region. It is bounded by the regions of Varna, Shumen, Sliven and Yambol; the eastern and southern boundaries to the Black Sea and Turkey coincide with the national borders. The Black Sea coastal areas and beaches with the sand and the thermal mineral springs provide favorable conditions for relaxation and recreation and for the development of balneological and sea tourism. The dense riparian forests with overgrowth along the rivers of Ropotamo and Veleka, the beauty of the rivers Dyavolska and Fakiiska, the wildlife in the Strandzha and Sakar Mountains and the nature reserves are a prerequisite for the development of ecotourism and hunting. Apart from the Silkosia, the oldest reserve in Bulgaria (1933), there are the Ropotamo and Strandzha National Parks, the Duni (the Dunes) and Vodnite Lilii (the White Lilies) reserves, the fiords and the seals cave on Maslen Nos Cape and other sites.
To the north and south of Burgas one can visit numerous holiday complexes and villages which offer wonderful conditions for vacation and relaxation – Pomorie, Nesebar, Sunny Beach (Slanchev Bryag), Duni, Sozopol, Primorsko, Tzarevo, Ahtopol. All of them are connected by a panoramic seaside road. Rezovo, the southernmost Black Sea village belongs to the region too.
