A top tip would be to explore the resort and go off the beaten track to find local restaurants as well as those popular restaurants, the cuisine in Bulgaria is delicious.
When is the best time to visit Sunny Beach? As specialists we run our season from late May to Mid September when the weather is better and the resorts are busier.
