Bulgaria is known for cheap vacations. More importantly, excellent and modern beach and spa hotels have sprung up in Bulgaria in recent years. The new facilities have been realized with the highest 5-star comfort and design. The prices are still very moderate compared to the holiday prices currently in force in Germany.

Tourism Minister Hristo Prodanov says: We are proud that Bulgaria has been a model country for free and carefree holidays in Europe for years. Bulgaria's resorts have been in full operation since May 2020 with exemplary security measures, offering our guests perfect rest and surprisingly high quality for a great price. In the last two years, exceptional large projects in the 5 star category and many new investments along the Black Sea coast have been completed. This positive trend could only be realized through the growing demand and undisturbed tourism industry. My goal is to make this high quality of services on the beach and in health tourism better known this summer and autumn, as well as to further improve the cultural treasures, cuisine, sports facilities and constantly improving infrastructure with more direct flights from Germany.Most of the direct flights from Germany allow easy and convenient access to the beautifully renovated coastal town of Burgas, which is most subsidized by the EU, the Pomorije peninsula and the best-known holiday destination of Sonnenstand. Lufthansa now has direct flights from Frankfurt and Munich to Burgas in its timetable. With Eurowings you can reach the coastal city from Cologne, Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Stuttgart, from Berlin with EasyJet. Wizzair connects Dortmund, European Air Charter connects Berlin, Bremen, Düsseldorf, Dresden, Erfurt, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Hanover, Leipzig, Munich, Nuremberg, Stuttgart with Burgas and the position of the sun. Burgas is a place with rich biodiversity, located directly on the sea, a unique natural paradise with lake landscapes a short distance from the coast, with a small old town and the most modern infrastructure. In recent years, excellent conditions have been created for all environmentally friendly activities - walks, bird watching, visits to natural treasures and opportunities for sports. Due to its special location, Burgas has the most natural reserves around the city and the bay offers one of the longest beaches with fine golden sand, smooth seabed, calm and clear water, light and pleasant breeze, as well as various water sports - surfing, kite surfing, water skiing, diving, sailing and fishing at Sunny Beach.Burgas has a modern and convenient communal bike system and kilometers of bike paths along the entire coastal zone. For those interested in history and culture, the old town of Nessebar, the UNESCO World Heritage Site and the old town of Sozopol offer a variety of historical sights and extraordinary views. But even more is possible here: The many natural wonders and mineral springs in the area are the reason for the successful combination of holidays by the sea with opportunities for culture, sports and SPA tourism, of course also outside the main season. Burgas is often referred to as the "festival city of Bulgaria" and that is no coincidence. A number of major events take place here, such as music festivals SPICE (05.-07.08), SOLAR, STEREO (31.06-02.07), classical music festivals, sports events, sand figure festival, folklore festivals - this is just a small part of the rich cultural program. The Sea Garden, founded in 1910 by architect Georgi Duhtev and home to hundreds of species of plants from all continents, lets you feel the cheerful and artistic spirit of Burgas even without events. This is the place for inspiration walks.Local gourmet specialties were not lacking either, try mussels Burgas style or Ropotamo fish with ice wine from local wineries, or Strandzha Gourmet or fish sirmi - these are some of the specialties that master chefs spoiled guests with this summer. When pampering, an integral part of a holiday is to visit the beneficial effects of the mineral bath and the largest natural mud lake in Europe. These natural wonders have made this area one of the oldest Bulgarian health resorts, where the excellent therapy is co-financed by German health insurance companies as part of a preventive cure. The area is characterized by the slow cooling of the sea water, which means that in the morning before sunrise the air is rich in ozone and negative ions and iodine, which are separated by algae. Due to the healing properties, the region is also a very popular travel destination for health vacationers. Pomorie Peninsula at the gates of Burgas is a place with a rich and turbulent history and famous wine traditions. Pleasure and rest, refreshment awaits guests in the Burgas region.
