THANKS to its beautiful beaches, cheap deals and warm temperatures, Burgas in Bulgaria has been a Brits' favourite for many years.

And the destination is about to become even more popular than ever this summer.


Burgas is located on Bulgaria's Black Sea coast and is famous for its many Blue Flag beaches, including Sunny Beach, a favourite for Brits.

Sunny Beach in Bulgaria was also named the "third-best best value holiday location" in the Post Office's Holiday Costs Report.

Temperatures in the area reach 33C during the summer, with a daily average of 27C.

In Burgas, you'll find plenty of activities to do on and off the beach.
