Ahtopol – a small sea-side town situated 87km south-east of
Bourgas and close to the Bulgarian – Turkish border - has
been a silent witness of long and exciting history – from
Antiquity, through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Now, rebuilt
and having entered the new millennium as a desirable tourist destination,
this tranquil place conveys a spirit of romantic serenity. The beaches,
the picturesque river of Veleka that runs only 4 km south of Ahtopol,
and the Strandza Mountain, which lies in close vicinity, make the
place unique and perfect for those who enjoy the raw, virgin beauty
of nature. No matter whether one enjoys sunbathing on the long,
fine-sand beaches and swimming in the quiet warm waters of the Black
Sea or prefers spending time on the sunny cliffs that lead to the
lighthouse or taking walks along the quay or in the near woods,
Ahtopol is a great choice for a relaxing summer holiday. Alive with
people during the summer months, the cool, breezy nights in this
small town can offer a pleasant evening out, different kinds of
entertainment and interesting new encounters.
