The bay and red roofs of Chernomorets

Old towns up the coast

Chernomorets

A small fishing town south of the bay, with beaches either side.

Chernomorets is what Sozopol was before the coaches found it: a working fishing town on a low headland, with a beach on each side and boats pulled up on the sand between them.

There is very little to see and that is the point. Come for lunch by the harbour on the way to or from Sozopol.
