When you’ve had a few days on the beach and you fancy a change of scene then a day out at the Castle of Ravadinovo, the castle ‘In love with the wind’, certainly fits the bill!
Located in the town of Ravadinovo, this castle is not what you would expect. It is the brainchild of a Bulgaria architect and its construction was started not in the first millennia, but 1996!

Built from stone carved from the nearby mountains, the walls are covered by dense Ivy giving the castle a feeling that is

There are many ways to relax while on holiday in Bulgaria, a day on the beach or by the pool will certainly do the trick but to help make you feel ‘fresh out of the box’ may we suggest a mud bath!
Not far from Sunny Beach, near the town of Pomorie, are the healing waters of Lake Atanasovsko. A few hours spent here benefitting from the natural healing qualities of the mud and salt ponds will revitalise and re-energise you. Once there start by covering yourself with mud that’s rich in minerals and has vital thermal qualities. This opens your blood vessels and open new capillaries reducing any swelling and pain you

For kids of all sizes and ages a visit, or a few visits, to an aqua park is a ‘must do’ on holiday. When the sun is beating down what better way to spend a day than whizzing down water slides and cooling off in a swimming pool.
Bulgaria has plenty of aqua parks to choose from. There is an aqua park in Sunny Beach, Nessebar and Albena, all offering a fantastic day out. Many hotels have their own aqua park or waterslides, more on those next week.
Sunny Beach - Action Aqua Park
Action Aqua Park is attached to Hotel Aqua Nevis and anyone can use it. It’s a great day out as it has all types of slides. For thrill
