Clean Natural World
Sunny Beach is a bearer of the prestigious BLUE FLAG prize for proven ecological advantages along the Black Sea coast. This is one of the few places along the Black Sea coast where one can still see genuine well-formed sand dunes - the most beautiful ones are situated in the resort's southern part.
The combination of coniferous and deciduous forests with sea and beach, unspoiled nature make your Sunny Beach holiday a true health holiday.
Many interesting plants, some of which can be seen only along the coast, are preserved among the sands. Sixteen rare plant varieties, which figure in the Red Book of Bulgaria, grow among the dunes of Sunny Beach. Five of these are protected, and some included in the list of rare and endangered plant varieties in Europe
