Sunny Beach
In medieval times, the bay situated between cape Emine and Nessebar had two large fresh water wells, residents earned a living by selling drinking water to Nessebar, which had none of its own. This area is now known as Sunny beach and has become the largest of Bulgaria's beach resorts with its six kilometre long beach regarded as one of the best on the coast.

Nessebar
Nessebar is best known for the old town (about 9000 years) on the peninsula. No one can say for sure whether the isthmus is natural or man-made. The largest number and best known buildings date from 11th to 14th centuries almost all of them churches in the so called "picturesque" style: walls intersected by pilasters and lunettes, with stone, brick and ceramic ornaments and arches along the cornice.
