Situated in the southern part of the Bulgarian Black Sea Riviera. Stretching along a beautiful semicircular bay facing east. Closed to the north by the descending ridges of the Balkan Range, thus blending sea and mountain in perfect harmony. Lying to the south is the small peninsula on which the ancient town of Nessebur is located - an architectural and historic monument of Bulgarian and world culture.
A holiday oasis, generously endowed by nature: wide semicircular bay facing east; over 8 km long and 30-60 m wide beach strip; fine golden sand; natural dunes among which 16 rare plant varieties grow; clean water and gently sloping sea bottom; calm sea without tides; lovely park; invigorating air, carrying the freshness of the nearby mountains; sea breeze which make scorching days easy to bear and nights pleasant cool; some 1700 hours of sunshine from May to October.
Sunny Beach is a bearer of the prestigious BLUE FLAG prize for proven ecological advantages along the Black Sea coast. This is one of the few places along the Black Sea coast where one can still see genuine well-formed sand dunes - the most beautiful ones are situated in the resort's southern part.
The combination of coniferous and deciduous forests with sea and beach, unspoiled nature make your Sunny Beach holiday a true health holiday.
Many interesting plants, some of which can be seen only along the coast, are preserved among the sands. Sixteen rare plant varieties, which figure in the Red Book of Bulgaria, grow among the dunes of Sunny Beach. Five of these are protected, and some included in the list of rare and endangered plant varieties in Europe.
