Ses Salines is a long stretch of white sand backed by pine trees and part of a natural park. It’s popular with a younger crowd and has a few beach bars that crank up the music in the afternoons. One end tends to attract nudists, but the vibe overall is relaxed and open.

Cala Comte is on the west coast and has a mix of small coves, clear turquoise water, and rocky outcrops—great for swimming or snorkelling. There are a couple of beach bars with decent food and music. The vibe is relaxed, but you’ll still find plenty of energy around.

Golden Sands is famous for its stunning golden sand and expansive beaches along the Black Sea. It's located 18 kilometres north of Varna, close to Golden Sands National Park. The resort boasts several kilometres of beachfront. The southern end is the more recently developed and less crowded, while the northern end features numerous bars and small shops. You can reach Golden Sands by public transport. Bus number 109 connects Varna city centre to the resort, although the journey typically takes a little over an hour. Taxis are also available, but they tend to be on the pricier side.
