Ahtopol
Ahtopol is located 87 km southeast of Burgas and it is 477 km southeast of Sofia.
This is a sea restort, located on a rocky peninsula in the lower lands of Strandja. There the sun rays are last longer than in any other place on the sea coast and furthermore the water temperature is much higher - about 25 C.
The coast line that is covered with fine pure sand is 2 km long.
Ahtopol is a great place for people looking for a wonderfully calm vacation.
The city is developing as a beautiful Black sea resort, which attracts many investments for new town planning. In Ahtopol one can find calmness and peacefulness in the cosy hotels and private residenses. There one can really rest and relieve himself from the stress and anxiety of work. The many little restaurants, pubs, and places for fast food will comfort the tourist with tasty bulgarian food.
The combination of sea, forest, and virgin nature are unique natural phenomena, which can astonish one for the summer and fall months.
Five kilometres south of Ahtopol is the mouth of Veleka River, the most beautiful river all along the Black Sea coast in spite of the competitive characteristics of Kamchia and Ropotamo. The village of Kosti famous for the nestinarski dances (barefoot dances on glowing embers) is situated nearby the river mouth.
The village of Varvara is 3 km to the north, it is a favourite place for divers and skin-divers for it is full of stone cavities in the river banks and underwater “reefs” of shells. Usually people in search of nature and solitude come to spend their holidays here. The beaches of Varvara are rocky. The village of Sinemorets is 10 km south of Ahtopol. There is a camping site and three beautiful beaches.
The last village on the coast is called Rezovo. It has a nice beach but is rarely used as a holiday place as it is too close to the national border and the border troops are stationed here.
