About Sozopol
Sozopol is about 31km from Bourgas and has around 7k residents. Located on a small rocky peninsular at the far end of Bourgas Bay it is connected to the mainland by 100 metre strip of land. Originally a small fishing village Sozopol has become one of the biggest fishing centres of the Black Sea coast and has developed into a popular tourist destination. You can still visit parts of the old town with its cobbled streets and old ladies sitting knitting lace and selling jams.
