Sunny Beach

My advice is to check out local markets for snacks instead of buying overpriced food at beach shacks. You can save a lot and enjoy some tasty local treats!

I totally recommend hitting the beach early in the morning around 7 AM. You'll have the whole place to yourself and can grab a good sunbed for cheap before it fills up.

One thing I wish I knew was to always haggle for taxi fares. I got ripped off by a few drivers, so I recommend agreeing on a price before jumping in!

I think exploring the beach bars in the evening is a must. Grab a drink around 6 PM for happy hour deals. Trust me, you'll find some great mixology going on!
The Central Beach

I suggest arriving around 8 AM to grab a good spot on the beach. It gets super crowded later, and you don't want to be hunting for a sunbed!

My advice is to bring your own snacks and drinks. The beach bars can be pricey, especially when you're craving a refreshing drink. Save some cash for nice dinners instead!

I recommend exploring the nearby old town after your beach day. It’s charming with pretty streets and less crowded. Plus, you can find some great little cafes for a relaxing dinner.

I think renting a sunbed for the whole day is worth it, but be sure to negotiate the price. Some places might overcharge you for those!
Cabacum Beach

Bring your own beach umbrella if you can. Renting one on the beach can be pricey, and it feels much better to have your little shady spot.

If you want to save money on food, try the local beachside eateries instead of the fancy ones. The prices are much more reasonable, and the fresh seafood is delicious!

I recommend hitting the beach early, around 8 AM, to snag a good spot and enjoy the peaceful morning vibe before the crowds roll in. It's way more relaxing!

My advice is to have some cash on hand, especially for the smaller vendors. They often don’t accept cards, and it's much easier for snacks and drinks!
Kavatsite

Consider bringing your own beach umbrella for shade; rentals can really add up, and finding a shady spot can be a challenge during peak hours.

Take a stroll along the beach at sunset. It's absolutely beautiful, and you'll see a different side of Kavatsite that's less crowded and more magical.

Make sure to explore the nearby Sozopol town in the evening. The sunsets are stunning, and there are many cozy restaurants where you can enjoy local cuisine.

If you're on a budget, pack your own snacks and drinks, as the beach bars can be quite pricey. I found some nice spots for a picnic near the water.
St. Constantine and St. Elena Beach

Bring your own snacks and drinks to save cash; beach bars can be pricey for food!
Don’t miss the local markets in the afternoon for some great local crafts and cheaper eats than the restaurants on the beach!

Check out the beach early around 8 AM to snag a good spot—there's fewer crowds, and you’ll catch some great sunrise views.
Irakli

If you're planning to stay for sunset, make sure to grab your spot by 7 pm. The view is stunning, but it gets super packed, and you won't want to miss that magical moment!

I recommend hitting the beach early, like around 8 am, to snag a good spot before the crowds show up. It's way more chill, and you can enjoy the sea in peace!
Galata Beach

I suggest visiting during the late afternoon, around 4 PM. You’ll avoid the crowd, and the beach looks stunning as the sun starts to set. Perfect for photos!

I recommend bringing your own snacks and drinks – the beach bars can be pricey... I brought a cooler with me, and it saved a lot of cash for ice cream instead!
South Beach Nessebar
I suggest arriving at South Beach by 10 AM to snag a good spot and avoid the crowds. I made the mistake of going around noon and it was packed!

My advice is to check out the local eateries along the beach for lunch. Some have really good deals, and I found a hidden gem for 25% off during happy hour!
Third Buna

If you want to avoid the crowds try to get there around 8 AM. The sunrise is stunning and you’ll have a more peaceful experience before the rush starts around noon

I recommend bringing your own snacks and drinks to the beach. The prices at the local kiosks can be pretty high, and finding a nice shaded spot to relax with a picnic is way more enjoyable!
Varna Beach

I suggest bringing your own snacks and drinks to Varna Beach. It can get pricy at the beach bars, and trust me, paying $5 for a bottle of water adds up! Saving on food lets you splurge on other fun activities.

My advice is to visit the beach around 5 PM. The sun isn't too intense, and it's much less crowded. Plus, you can catch a gorgeous sunset while chilling on the sand – totally worth it!
