During the summer, there's an average temperature of 27 degrees, with highs of 35 during the daytime.

Sunny Beach is the most popular destination and a favourite for Brits.

The holiday resort is located on the southern Black Sea coast, with plenty of beaches and cheap hotels and restaurants.

Other popular beach resorts include Golden Sands and Albena, and a lesser-known hotspot is Kavarna.

Kavarna also has miles of sandy beaches, clear waters and warm weather throughout the summer.

The seaside town also has many historical landmarks and ruins, including the Kaliakra Fortress and the Cape Kaliakra Archaeological Reserve.

You could even take a hike in the Kaliakra nature reserve.

Kavarna is a great destination for families, but it shines as a destination for a mates holiday in the sun.
