With its wide neoclassical boulevards and pedestrianised centre, Bourgas is pretty impressive in its own right. And with the best array of stores in this stretch of the Black Sea – it makes for an ideal spot for a day of shopping.
You'll be driven from your resort to Bourgas and dropped off in the centre. Stroll the tree-lined streets of the shopping district and take in the sights. Abundant cafés and restaurants – some of which are the best in this region – make for a welcome break. There are also historic churches and museums worth checking out.
And if you get shopping out of the way early, head over to the sea garden – a massive area of parkland running the length of the town, with terraces filled with manicured flowerbeds, sculptures and cafés facing onto the sea.
